The New Zealand Defence Force has released new gender-neutral grooming and appearance standards for members of the Royal New Zealand Navy. The new guidance outlines requirements for cosmetics, body art, hairstyles, and other grooming standards without separating the standards by gender.
Chief of the Royal New Zealand Navy, Rear Admiral David Proctor described the changes:
Without respect to gender, members will be allowed to “wear discreet makeup and perfume/cologne in moderation. Personnel may wear a clear or pale nail varnish whilst in uniform. False eye lashes may [also] be worn provided that they are trimmed, neat and natural in appearance.”
Proctor praised the changes, saying that such inclusion is “critical to our success.”
h/t “hello, sailor!”
The Village People have rewritten their famous song to In The New Zealand Navy.
I am not ERIC BRUNT by name ….. thank God!
Calling All Klingers !
I feel pretty
Oh, so pretty
I feel pretty, and witty and gay
And I pity
Any sailor who isn’t me today…
So, we’ll no longer call them Kiwi’s.
They’ll be known as ‘Fruits.’
Rear Admiral. Whaddaya expect.
And to think I wanted to escape to NZ.
Screw it all….I want my own island.
You need a boat, jellybean. The best kind is a SAILBOAT.
(-:
And they can set sail on the HMS Pinafore!
New Zooland!
Hey, we’re back! How’s everybody doing?
Do you have any men on board?
Sailors used to get lashes, now they wear them.
I can hardly wait to see the new NZRN do the haka.
The New Zealand Navy. Has like… one ship and 200 actual seamen? Now a leader in progressive military management.
I’m so sick of this crap that I can’t even see the humor in it anymore.
Arming their torpedoes while learing how to accessorize
are a critical combination for these sailorboys.
Did they name Obama secretary of defense?
When the chi comm invade, no American soldier should risk their life to stop them. NZ is better off communist than a freak zone.
I’m guessing they’re going to do away with the term “seamen” because it sounds like semen.
“I’m guessing they’re going to do away with the term “seamen” because it sounds like semen.”
…….because it sounds like dessert.
Their navy consists of coastal “tramp” steamers.
Where have we seen this before…you military fairy?

I bet all the sheep there are breathing a sigh of relief.
Semen? Did someone say semen? – Kamala Harris got all excited, sensing an opportunity.
….once were warriors 😉
Diversity is our strength!
NZ has a Navy? I thought it was burly dudes in dugouts with spears… not exactly the gay archetype, but then again Comey is immigrating so there you go.
Now, Johnnie comes mincing home, instead of marching home.
