Maybe the flag ranks are reserved for the male generals.

Traditionally, all successful generals were male and skilled at leadership. I'm not sending a sexist message, but I'm stating the historical truth.

That whole “historically, all successful generals were male...” thing just perplexes me. When you only allow a specific type of person to become something, of course all the ‘successful’ ones would be of that specific type.

In jest and all due respect to the men, don’t ever think one woman can’t out-smart any two men. :-)
