Royal Jordanian was the first, I believe, in the region, and they have several female Captains now, and at one time, a female DirOps...and I was told she took no guff from anyone.
Having operated into JED a few times with female First Officers, immigration/customs gave 'em a wide berth.
One time, as one of 'em was closing up her flight bag, I mentioned...'Ah, Loraine, the customs guy is staring at you very intently.'
She says...'Yeah, I know, he is looking right at my a**, with evil thoughts'.
