Women are allowed in the RAF but because of laws they're not allowed to be on the front line.
This means that they can take roles such as being a pilot, navigator, intelligence officer e.t.c but they can't join the RAF Gunners (Which is their fighting Regiment). Basically military roles that are on the front line taking part in hand to hand combat.
Apart from certain parts of the military I'm not sure what they're not allowed to do.
Edit: This may help, taken from the RAF website in the Careers FAQs:
What jobs are there for women?
Our first woman fast-jet pilot qualified back in 1991 and all RAF roles are open to women, with the sole exceptions of RAF Regiment Officer and RAF Regiment Gunner. The RAF Regiment carry out roles similar to front-line soldiers and in common with the Army (who recently conducted a two year review of this issue), women are still not recruited for roles that can involve fighting the enemy face-to-face. This position may be reviewed again in the future.

Hello
Not rly anymore, take something like bobsled though, it's been open to women for tiiime but noone's come forward to do it. I think it was bobsled, one of those sports where you go down a big ice hill on a tray anyway.
