A POLL conducted by UK-based travel site sunshine.co.uk showed 51 per cent of British flyers don't trust female pilots. Only 26 per cent of those surveyed said the pilot's gender was irrelevant. Those who would prefer to fly with a male pilot based their decision on "women's inability to handle pressure" and just 14 per cent of the respondents said they would feel safer flying with a female pilot.

That's funny -- I've had far more female editors than male, and that's a very stressful job. Stupid little monkey brains, obfuscating the fact that some people deal with with pressure and others don't, and sex chromosomes aren't the determining factor!
