Gender neutral has a down side. More work for those left short staffed.

[FONT=&quot]In January 2015, 3,335 women were pregnant aboard military vessels, representing about 14 percent of the 23,735 women then serving such duty, according to the data.[/FONT][FONT=&quot]But by August 2016 that number reached nearly 16 percent, an all-time high. The Navy reported that 3,840 of the 24,259 women sailors who were aboard Navy ships were pregnant.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]The Obama administration understated the pregnancy problem throughout its eight years and even suppressed some data about the impact of its “gender-neutral” policies on the Navy.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]For decades, for instance, the Navy published results from exhaustive surveys of 25,000 men and women in a document called the “Navy Pregnancy and Parenthood Survey.”[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]The reports once were 75 to 100 pages long and disclosed attitudes among men and women and their behavior. However, the Obama administration published only brief two to three-page summaries from 2012 onward.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]A civilian attached to the Navy Personnel, Research, Studies and Technology group, which researched and published the surveys, told TheDCNF full reports were completed regularly even though it’s detailed findings were not released to the public. The individual requested anonymity.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]“The military has been tight lipped over the years about these numbers. They don’t like to publicize them,” Eden told [/FONT]TheDCNF[FONT=&quot].[/FONT]
