Hi all, Well since I have dealt with the peanut gallery above I can focus on the actual questions vice nonsensical rants.  I read through the posts last night and decided rather than use a very long post to respond; I will take each theme in turn and respond as there were a few different...

Well, I am assuming this is meant for me. While you are certainly entitled to your opinion (both of you) I guess I am entitled to mine. You both make a mockery of decent human beings and if you are in the military perhaps you should read the military ethos and take it to heart because you...

Wow . . . leave a thread for a few days on TD and it explodes in all sorts of directions.  I will do my best to respond to all but will need a bit of time as I have some pressing matters at work to deal with. So as some will understand . . . wait out. Cheers Andraste

Hello, No disrespect taken.  This is standard misconception that gender identity is the same as sexual orientation.  Specifically, if you are a trans-woman (a man who lives as a woman) then you must like men.  The two are not linked on any level.  Yes, it is plausible that a trans-woman may...

Hello, Both the VOT-U and VOT processes are competitive but separate.  As a VOT-U you are competing with other VOT-U applicants only for specific occupations which are listed on the monthly reassignment list (MRL).  VOT-U applicants are processed last after COT-U (compulsory occupation...

Hello, The boards sit quarterly and are dependent on flow and volume of applications.  All I can tell you is to be patient. Cheers

When applying for a commissioning program the status of your occupation has no relevance.  Specifically, your CM cannot stop your applying or being commissioned should you meet all the criteria and your file is selected. Cheers

Hello, This is my first post on this site and I believe I can speak with some expertise on the subject as I am a serving trans woman.  Now I don't normally call myself a trans woman as I consider myself a woman because that is my gender.  I have an "F" not a "M" on my military ID, provincial...
