Again, what sexism? Do you work in the industry, or are you a
recreational type pilot? Until you've spent a lot of time in the
industry, please don't comment on the sexism which is largely created by
the politcally correct camp.


It's great that you haven't encountered it, but it *does* exist ... I
personally don't believe it stops anyone who really wants to pursue
aviation goals, though. Using that platform to make a fuss about this
funny set of comparisons is a pretty big stretch. Most of us (women in
aviation, recreational and/or professional) are smart enough to be able
to distinguish a gender joke from an actual sexist offense.
