What is it like being in the Air Force and being a woman?

Question

I am thinking about enlisting in the air force, but many people are telling me not to because I am a woman.

Answer 1

Next to the Coast Guard, the Air Force is the best choice for a woman. More civilian like than the others.

The Coast Guard will allow a pregnant woman up to one year(Or more depending on the needs of the USCG) off after giving birth to care for her newborn baby. Of course you wont get paid but if you got pregnant in the Coast Guard it's an option(For the Father as well if he is enlisted just once again no pay).

But as for the AF, Lots of women in the AF these days. I have several female friends in now, they absolutly love it.

Answer 2

Do it. There is nothing wrong with being a woman in the AF.

Answer 3

When I was in the USAF in the early 1990s, there were plenty of women. The highest rank was one-star general (O7). I knew many O6 (colonel). And worked directly with a O5 (Lt Colonel) who was extremely kind to me.

You'll be fine. It's the best one for women actually to be in.

Just pick the right career. So after you're out, you'll get a decent job.

Answer 4

Now a days many girls are joining the Air Force

Answer 5

I'm a woman and in the army. It's actually great. Everyone loves you and respects you pretty highly, it's a once in a lifetime experience. I say, go for it. Talk to a recruiter, they'll ansswer anything you want to know. Don't let people's opinions sway you, get your facts straight and go from there.
