Maybe a little off the original topic but in line with the whole "Good Jane, Bad Jane" discussion:

In general(although certainly not always the case), the sour pusses I encounter among the FA ranks tend to be women and the guys tend to be a little more laid back and friendly. For example, I was flying SNA-IAH one time (about 2:30 flight time) and the FA announced that there would be a movie. However, after selling the headsets(this actually occured when they still only rented them) they started showing Continental Vision and began serving the meals. When the FA got to my row I ever so politely inquired when the movie was to begin especially since the flight time was so short and I wanted to get to watch the end of the film. She snapped back, "When I start it! I'm in charge here!" Talk about weird power trip. Additionally, I find that the women tend to be most like a "sky-nazi" when asking you to bring your seat backs up or stowing your luggage while the guys tend to have a more friendly approach about it. What do you guys think? Guys or gals make better FAs?

By the way, before I get attacked, nine out of ten times I have a good flight/crew regardless of gender. However, once in a blue moon this has been my personal observation.
