I stumbled upon this article about transgender police officer Kerry Bell while I was looking into information about the Debate Club for this week. I found it very interesting that a transgender officer would be so easily accepted by his chief and co-workers, especially since Bell was previously a woman and now has become a man. Also, it made me think of GLBT individuals in the armed forces, and how it is thought that if they were to come out as who they really are, the unit cohesion would be destroyed. I think this article proves that if the unit cohesion already exists, it won’t matter if a few individuals are to come out.
