Man overboard! [British] Sailors told to stop using male-themed Navy terms like 'unmanned' and 'manpower' to avoid turning female recruits off sea career
2020-07-18
[Daily Mail, where Americans get their news]
  • There is an acceptance in the Royal Navy service some terms are no longer appropriate

  • But one officer called it 'a pathetic, woke distraction from keeping Britain safe'

  • The word 'seaman' was dropped by Canadian Navy due to its 'double entendre'
