Humour airplanes and women

That's great. But you're one of the rare women who have managed to ignore

means you're not exactly representative of women generally.
Being aware of sexism in the aviation industry doesn't mean we can't
take a joke. It definitely exists, and there's a time when being
sensitive to it is appreciated; but looking for a reason to make a fuss
when there is none doesn't help the cause. The blurb was pretty funny,
especially the one about it being very bad when things get quiet! Most
of us (women) have been around long enough to know the difference
between humor and an intentional insult.
