BGULLNavy launches first gender neutral submarine
So the Navy does have defined criteria for what a woman is?

They were all made honorary plank holders, the kids raised $3000 and gave it to the crew for a party! I thought it was very cool of the Navy to include the school and vice versa. The commander and some crew went ashore and answered questions from the students.
I'm guessing your granddaughter goes to MAST.
i work at a very similar school called MATES. MAST and MATES are county vocation schools and are stem schools.

pbslingerYes subs are too masculine, even phallic shaped. I'll guess this one is a sphere.

RedhookbklynAnother submarine joke.
150 sailors board a sub and 75 couples go ashore.

RightwireDid anyone ask the submarine how it feels about this?
Maybe it doesn't choose to be gender neutral, maybe it doesn't identify as a submarine at all.

She does, I didn't realize Ocean Cty had MATES. These are amazing schools, small class size, great teacher to student ratio. Of course, they're still kids and act like that most of the time. Must be very interesting interacting with them. I'm very proud of her, she's had some real trauma in her life and continues to rise above it.

I love working at MATES. Two of my kids graduated from there. My wife also taught there for 10 years until she got transferred to our academy of law and public safety. That is a high school for students that want to be police or military.

bald1This is just another in a long line of stupid decisions the so called leadership has made. They have forgotten the high pregnancy rate and nasty discord that resulted when surface vessels first allowed females to deploy on board. Obviously DEI and gender "equality" is more important to them than readiness and crew cohesiveness. Fucktards!
Certifiable member of the gun toting, septuagenarian, bucket list workin', crazed retiree, bald is beautiful club!
