So the SFO seated next to me has a beard and moustache, and is wearing a skirt with tights. And perhaps facial and eye make-up.
This will distract me, and at the same time make me feel disconcerted., This therefore becomes a serious safety issue. I have been comfortable with gender stereotypes since I was a child. I have no problems working alongside a gay or lesbian pilot, and never have. (Often I have not known about this in any event).
But this latest 'virtue-signalling' by Virgin Atlantic is not a good thing at all. Some of my friends and former colleagues have gone so far as to say that it makes them feel sick.
