A couple of years back I was attending a mandatory "Diversity in the Workplace" workshop.
The discussion got around to the stereoptypes of traditional male/female professions. One of the instructors asked everyone if they would feel comfortable with a female piloting an airplane they were flying in.
I responded that I had no problem with it as long as she wasn't trying to put on her makeup in the rearview mirror while flying at 35,000 feet.
