Navy Bureaucracy Has No Idea How To Make Job Title ‘Yeoman’ Gender-Neutral

The Navy is hell-bent on adjusting job titles to suit gender equality, but the bureaucracy is stumped on changing the clerical position of “yeoman” and has mulled over alternatives like “yeo-person” and “yeo-specialist” as replacements…

…“There may be a few iconic titles you are not going to change because they are so deeply rooted and have been there for so long that they don’t denote gender,” Mabus told The New York Times.

His singular obsession with increasing diversity in the military has led GOP Rep. Duncan Hunter ?to call for his resignation.
