Most government and private medical insurance don't even provide treatment funding for transgendered

Ok I'm probably going to get yelled at for this...but no the transgendered shouldn't get help for the bills relating to medical surgery. I'm of the opinion that medical insurance and any government insurance is for only life threatening and painful conditions, and while I'm sympathetic to those who are transgendered I don't think I should either have to pay taxes or have my health insurance premiums rise to pay for what is really elective surgery. Sure you can call it a birth defect all you want and I can't imagine the horror of waking in the wrong body everyday but these are people that can live normal lives but just not in the gender they desire.

When people are denied aids medications and other essential life saving tests and medications from their insurance companies and governments you want them to pay for sex change surgeries? Sorry, no I don't think that's remotely feasible or moral in the scheme of things for society. Psychological counseling for the transgendered I will for sure agree with and proper education to reduce bias yes of course but others being forced into paying for surgery? No.
