I'm actually surprised how many think this is ok? Surely having any signs with a person wearing a dress/skirt just reinforces sexual differences? Why shouldn't men wear skirts? Plenty do in Scotland! Plenty of women wear trousers so how were the old signs sexist?

What they are basically saying is any woman who wears trousers is a bloke.

If anything, all of the old signs depict flat chested women, as they certainly don't have male appendages!

It's actually just a bolded stick figure. Normal people see green and red. Morons assign a sex to a sexless sign.

Maybe a silhouette of bowie at his most androgynous would be the best compromise?

What an unbelievable waste of time and money. As comments go, THIS

"these symbols are a practical and meaningful way to demonstrate that in fact 50 per cent of our population is female and should therefore also be represented at traffic lights."

I'm astonished at how some people can justify a living sometimes in this world.

Hardly sexless, we were always told to wait for the little green man before crossing.
