attitudes to women etc

I've been seeing a ton of ads promoting women in the ADF, so they seem to be pushing quite hard to change that. Whether they're actually doing anything in practice, or it's just a giant marketing budget and a lecture about inclusivity is anyone's guess. I'm not even a woman, but at least based on my internal stereotype of the average dude in the military, I would feel really out of place and depply uncomfortable, and that's ignoring the whole killing people thing. Although I could probably be convinced to join a supporting role or something in the DVA

Edit: words
