I have encountered some excellent female pilots and am all for working with them up the front if they have achieved the position the same way their males peers have had to.
Unfortunately, I have also seen many handed jobs purely because the chief pilot thought he had a chance, and who knows what went on behind closed doors. Genuinely, the ones handed jobs were more trouble than they were worth, and some just outright dangerous.
One special case was asked to leave more GA jobs than you can poke a stick at, and now she is flying a jet apparently.
