I think that I know what you are getting at but I am not sure!! It is not (in my humble opinion) worth raising the "sex" banner, either pro-male or female, in this day and age. Both sexs are equally competent when trained and qualified (as used to be the case during my service time, many years ago). I got a "bol****ing in 1965 for sending a young lady solo in a Chipmunk - could not see why as she was an RAF sponsered undergrad. on a UAS (had to be!) and I was told (correctly) she was to be treated like any other student. Today there would have been no comment but then...!
