2. With another female veteran, absolutely.

I've had mixed experiences with many of the male veterans I've met. Some are downright dismissive, but I don't take it to heart.

I was at a Pow Wow, once, and participated in the Veteran's Dance. I was one of only a few female veterans, and most of the men were very warm and welcoming. However, one man flat out refused to shake my hand. Maybe he was just a flat out jerk.
