Humour airplanes and women

I find complaining about other person's humor and the whole "political
correctness" area to be totally devoid of intellectual comment. It most
certainly does not belong on an aviation news group.

Yes it feels so good to be politically correct.

Cool off a bit Peter it's only a joke.


Ahh yes, the old "we can be as ignorant and insulting as we want, all we
have to do is accuse our detractors of being politically correct" tactic.

Well, screw you. People bitch and whine about how aviation is dying on the
vine, and yet the industry basically excludes 50% of the population, through
a variety of means but very much including this sort of sexism.

If and when pilots can author and laugh at a similar list written about
airplanes and men, then perhaps you can defend yourself against political
correctness. Until then, this is just one more example of the rampant
sexism that exists in the aviation industry.

You can take your accusation of "political correctness" and shove it up your
ass. As anyone who knows me knows, I am the last person one could
rightfully accuse of that. I'm more than happy to skewer anyone anytime,
regardless of race, gender, creed, etc.

But I'm also willing to call a spade a spade. The post wasn't even all that
funny, and it was very much representative of the prehistoric attitudes one
finds so prevalent in aviation. As long as idiots like you continue to
think there's some amusement to be found in this sort of thing, aviation
will always be one of those things that's all about the "boy's club".

So there.
