Female reenactors as soldiers?

[Gaius Julius Caesar]

Can't argue that it is easier to disguise yourself in later kit!
btw,
1. on the left.
2. rider with back to camera
3. second from the left
4. left sword weilding soldier
5. Smiling soldier on horse back maybe?

But like you say, an earlier impression is harder to get away with. the legs would probably be a give away!

There are females who reenact, that is life, but on the whole, I don't think even at 21 ermmm 47 that I am too old to portray a legionary
or a centurion for that matter.

Like I said, I certainly would not give the option of playing a woman to a man, pc crowd regardless.
I am certainly not a male chauvanist, but there are some things tha tjust wouldn't work.
For instance, we are in some instances required to wear unarmoured dress....

I hate to sound as if I don't like women in kit but, well, some things just wouldn't work. :roll:
BTW. I think your late cavelry impression looks excellent!
