Thread: Military wife launches jobsite for military spouses

Whilst I'm all for anywhere that helps folk find work, it is a little, how can I say, female?

I know, I know, but whilst the website title hits the nail on the head, it's not just wives, there are military husbands too! And the PR of the launch reinforces the stereotype! Just hope all the equal opportunity boxes have been ticked...

Nice looking website, though.

Nice looking website, though.

The majority of military spouses are female and it was supported by the Royal British Legion's Women section. I think they have been ticked. I think Heledd has done an amazing job and she has worked tirelessly against some very significant hurdles. I wish her every success and I hope that this enables many spouses who want to work to be able to find work even in the face of regular postings.

That's OK then.

Like I said, the website's a great idea, but not all military spouses are female.

That was all.
