How to become a male flight attendant?

I'm a South African male. I really want to become a flight attendent, but have no idea where to start. Could someone help me...?

1. Grow boobs and learn to walk in high heels. Seriously, just look up Flight Attendant Schools in your area. In the US many flight attendants are getting laid off due to the airline industry crisis.
2. WOOOO!!! I wanna be cabin crew too! Hang on, first you need to meet this criteria... >Minimum 5'2" in height (157.5cm) >Educated to GCSE standard or equivalent >Fluent in both spoken and written English >Holder of an EU (EEA) passport >In good physical health >A confident swimmer Here in Britain, you just have to apply direct to the airline. You don't need many qualifications, but the pay is dreadfull! It doesn't matter if you are male or female, remember you don't HAVE to be stupid, blonde or gay to be cabin crew! It is actully a very demanding job and the passengers only see a small amount of what the crew do during their flight. Ignore the common steriotipes, IE trolly dolly... People don't realise how much hard work that the crew do. Check this out for Virgin Atlantic... http://www.virgin-atlantic.com/en/za/allaboutus/workingforus/jobprofiles/cabincrew.jsp Check this out for BA... http://www.britishairwaysjobs.com/baweb1/?newms=info42 The airlines really like it if you have previous customer service experience and can speak more that one language. GOOD LUCK! You never know, we might meet somewhere in the sky one day!
