Indeed, if you would go down this road, where does it stop? You would be
eligible getting discussions why the female species is described with a
longer word than the male. Why is there even a 'man' part in
'woman'. I
can bet there are man and woman finding this offensive!!!! ;)
What do you think about these symbols for male and female? Should be
changed also, this male is now pointing up to heaven = good, and female
pointing down to hell = bad? ;)
