What a load of twaddle...like going back to the dark ages. I am proud to wear my uniform and to be a member of the Royal Air Force; an inclusive organisation that empowers all.
I'm not sure how men could be attracted to women dressed as men like female police officers and females in the military. These are men's jobs. If they weren't, then women could dress like women in these jobs but they can't. Stick to being feminine, women.
