As that was never a requirement, regardless of your tenuous stretching of logic and 'fact', your entire argument fails.
In the 1950's, "military flight experience in high-performance jets" and "had penis" formed a perfectly circular Venn diagram. Until 1976, women weren't allowed to be military pilots, period.
It was not a literal requirement, but it was both a practical and technical one to the point where it might as well have been a literal requirement.
