How dare you assume the person in a skirt's gender!

Not appropriate. As if women have more difficulty in keeping up with the rules.

It's a stick figure, could be a man or woman,wearing trousers. Its called a pedestrian crosding not a man or woman crossing. Lets lookout for other changes.

You sure it’s not a man in a kilt?

The Indian KaliMa rising, as bad as the crowned liz? in a turban is still a penchant for the white bastard at war with his own women's drive for power, dominance, okay, equality, and well power mostly. Put India and IT down!!!

And, just like that, the patriarchy ended.

...but from what caste is the figure? Mmh?

Is the normal one a man? Looks like a stick figure to me.

So small not worth noting.

neolib shit

Wow nice maybe some real equality now
