Sexist attitudes like that are
exactly why the RAF needs to engage with women. Currently 14% of the RAF are female (which is better than the other services), with aircrew being a far lower percentage, and that's
despite having had female aircrew for 30 odd years.
You might want to look up 'Self - sabotage' and 'Imposter syndrome'. Research indicates that, owing to sexist societal values, it affects more women than men.
It's attitudes like yours that reinforce female self-doubt, attitudes that belong in the 1950s, attitudes which have no place in the 21st Century.
