Whatever the position may be in the US, those sort of waiver clauses are worth diddly zip under UK law if the personal injury has been caused by negligence.
So, under your proposals, we are left with scrap the UM programme.
Ask yourself, which is the more absurd result of the so-called "PC-madness", a simple (but imperfect) policy for child protection or scrapping all UMs for fear of causing offence to male pax?

Do you really need an answer to that?
Unlike female adult pax, BA is in a sort of
loco parentis situation (with an enhanced duty of care) with UMs.
