Women as commercial divers

What do you guys think about women commercial divers? I'm not one, but I know a gal interested in becoming one. In such a male-dominated industry, would it be harder for a woman to have a successful career? Would you enjoy working side by side with women?

having said alllllll that, let me tell you: My respects to offshore diving. Always wanted to do it, but I knew better.

That's one tough job. Leave that to those who can handle it.

Good for you Kyra.  I would like to ask you to consider the airhats we make for your program.  They are very comfortable and can be lead lined on outside to help cut down on radiation exposure to the head.
