Our research reveals women suppress their femininity to fit into military culture – and struggle to be seen as veterans when they leave

Abstract
Imagine spending years hiding who you are to fit into a group, only to become invisible once you leave. This is the reality for many women who serve in the military. Our research has found ex-servicewomen face a double burden: first, via suppressing their femininity to fit into military culture, then struggling to be recognised as veterans at all.
