Pilot is an ASEXUAL word, without bias or gender or race differentiation
And yet when you hear a female PA in the cabin, you still get the smirks, sideways looks and sly comments between some of the pax.
Seems for some people, the word "pilot" conjures up images of manhood. Anything else is lesss than expected.
Seems you're trying to change human nature with this equality thing. Like it or not, there is still a lot of punters out there who would prefer to hear Chuck Yeager's manly voice re-assuring them they will be safely delivered to the destination in one piece, y'all...
Why don't you ever see any female garbage "men"?
