Male personnel in the Royal New Zealand Navy will soon be allowed to wear makeup, false eyelashes and nail polish according to new gender-neutral guidelines.
The updates, that will come into effect next month, are intended to demonstrate that the RNZN make no distinction between male and female members in terms of appearance.
Chief of Navy Rear Admiral David Proctor told Newshub: “The NZDF can confirm that as of November 1, 2019, guidelines around grooming and appearance for Royal New Zealand Navy personnel will be updated.
“These updates are to reflect that the RNZN make no distinction between male and female members in terms of their personal grooming and appearance.”
The changes will allow male Navy personnel to wear fake eyelashes, discreet makeup and clear or pale nail varnish when in uniform. Long hair will also be permitted, provided it’s worn in a bun or single plait.
Proctor went on to claim the success of the RNZN depends on such diverse and inclusive changes.
“These changes reflect that diversity and inclusion are critical to our success as an organisation, as are the unique traditions and characteristics of the RNZN.”
"Hello, sailor"
Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.
Could lead to a whole new rendition of Rear Admirals on the poop deck.
It would appear that the Navy strives to be first in dropping any standard offensive to a (ptui-ptui) progressive.
“These changes reflect that diversity and inclusion are critical to our success as an organisation, as are the unique traditions and characteristics of the RNZN.”
To believe this requires parroting propaganda, not speaking one’s own mind (or the truth).
Western Civilization is doomed.
I don’t think even ancient Rome got this bad.
OMG! Am I glad I am “retired” from the Navy because I couldn’t have put up with this crap.
Fitting that their chief of the navy is a Rear admiral. No mention if he is a pitcher or catcher (or whatever the cricket equivalents are).
We really do need to remove every last Obama hold-over from all federal positions. No exceptions.
“...critical to our success as an organisation”
Wrong. It will be a huge factor in the demise of your organization, and tarnish the legacy of those who have served.
PC bullsh!t
It seems the US Navy is emulating the British Navy of old. They just need add rum and the lash...
Makeup, false eyelashes and nail polish. Yup, that’s what makes a woman a woman, alrighty.
All civilizations fail eventually. We are witnessing it.
But will there be generous portions of grog?
Royal New Zealand Navy
New Zealand is so far gone. Sigh.
“They’re selling postcards of the hanging, they are painting the passports brown
The beauty parlor is filled with sailors, the circus is in town
Here comes the blind commissioner, they’ve got him in a trance
One hand is tied to the tightrope walker, the other is in his pants”
(Bob Dylan-Desolation Row-1965)
Time to scuttle the whole damned thing then.
Ashore it’s wine, women and song; aboard it’s rum, bum and concertina
