It will magically make the performance differences between the sexes vanish.
Just like General Shinseki’s brainiac idea of giving everyone berets will somehow make everyone more elite.

I officially call for the immediate removal from office Mabus and Obama. And for all Marine Officers to recognize this as THE point in time to disobey an order from the revolutionary socialist government.
Mass disobedience can work.
The public and millions of former Marines will stand behind you.

“Airman” is a compound word/title....he says those are exceptions.

More PS $h!+ to wuss icy the military.

[tallyhoe]

Well what will they call them Airheads??

[LegendHasIt]

How about they replace ‘man’ with ‘head’?

Certainly would fit for the brass, if not the enlisted / NCOs.

[Impy]

Oh gag me with a spoon.

This politically correct crap has got to stop! In my dictionary, one of the definitions of man is “humans in general.” An airman is an enlisted human in the air force.

Meanwhile the other services will keep calling them -

Imagine some of America's tougher scrapes had we started earlier on "gender-equality" in our forces:.

Imagine in the real world (not left-wing fantasyland): the Battle of the Bulge, the Battle of Chosin Reservoir, or the Battle of Ia Drang Valley with about one-third females in the ranks.

Lunacy.

Joe Biden “Airhead” to recognize his contributions

[ScottinVA]

Amazing the steps taken to suck up to a militant few. The progs would love nothing more than to eliminate the military altogether, but failing that, the radical feminization of it will do for now.

You do realize this problem is twice as bad for a Mailman.

I propose air fodder.

And soon, we will no longer be known as “Mankind” even as a collective for the Human Race....

One of the reasons I retired from Air Force in 1987 was, they were considering changing the name of the “Airman” magazine to the “Air-person” magazine. I could see a lot of other changes coming down the pike, and I was unwilling to go down that politically correct highway.

So. It’s “Air”
