Victoria to introduce female signals for pedestrian crossings

It's 2017 and this matters

"When Melbourne pedestrians next bother looking up from their phones to cross the street, they may be stopped not by a little red man but by a little red woman in a dress.

A VicRoads-approved trial of 10 female silhouettes in the city is aiming to address the gender bias on the streets.

The Equal Crossings initiative was designed by the influential lobby group the Committee for Melbourne’s Future Focus Group and aims to promote gender equality."

thank god, melbourne really needs to be less sexist in this modern age

>Wtf! I guess I'm with Her now!

Another pointless victory for morons

Look

Nu-Germans on holiday will just see this as a literal green light to rape some bitches starting with these 3 fuglies

This is beyond hilarious. It implies women can only identify with a stick figure, the most basic anatomic representation of a human, if it's wearing a skirt.

Forget all the homless and junkies that are literally everywhere. This is much more important.

feminists don't wear dresses, and women in general don't wear them all the time. It's very stereotypical and.....extremely sexist.

How will we not get boners when told it is safe to walk across the street?

What does it mean?

>Tee hee we won another victory over those stupid men!
>I don't really want to have more than one kid, I'm just waiting for the right guy
>Refugees welcome!
>What's Sharia

>Progressivism
>Female identity means wearing a dress and nothing more.

Wew

So its a sign i can ignore now.

TRANSGENDER CROSSING SIGNALS WHEN

>when Melbourne cucks care more about changing a street light instead of wanting to get rid of their increasing violent street crimes

It'll cost $9k to replace 6 lights. Plus however much the people in charge of this are getting paid.
Apparently the want half of the lights female. Sounds like a headache.
This is like when they wanted to make a gay flag crossing instead of the normal zebra crossing. They had to order heaps of expensive custom pain, because no one makes road paint in those colours and some hektic lad did a burnout on it. Money well spent.

Someone seems to be desperately trying to justify their job.

I wonder how that would work out. A dress and a penis?

Kek

>girl defined by dress

I AM A WOMAN & WEAR'TROUSERS ALL THE TIME.

IMPLYING I MUST WEAR A SKIRT IS SEXIST YOU SHITLORDS!!!

Seems very silly thing to do by the left.

I mean, it goes against being gender neutral putting a dress on the character ;)

We could use that XD

> what level of knicker-twist you at pol?
> I'm reeing at level 9, bro

who's victoria?

Fuck, that got me good.

I never ever see skirts these days. Its all girls in tight pants that leave nothing to the imagination

It's not a woman, it's a Scotsman.

Why does the figure wear a dress? Implying that women should wear dresses or skirts? Sexist much shitlord?

Here, i solved all "gender issues" with walk signals.
Now fucking pay me.

The things leftists are willing to bitch about never ceases to amaze me. They are fucking complaining about stick figures that light up!

The scary thing is that this stupidity doesn't seem to be coming to an end any time soon.

>but by a little red woman in a dress

How do these shitlords know it's not a man in a dress? Are they presuming their gender?

Clearly this is biased in favour of outie bellybuttons over innie belly buttons.

How the fuck do those symbols represent walking?
Nigger you get an F.

>Women don't wear trousers

This has been met with an overwhelmingly negative response, literally everyone all over kikebook have been shitting on this

Theres hope

Wait, so the generic stick figure was assumed to be male because it wasn't wearing a skirt?

There were never any issues to begin with.

MOTHER FUCKER I WILL CUT YOU

NOW IT'S REPRESENTATIVE OF MOVING ACROSS THE STREET VS BEING BLOCKED

FIND FAULT WITH THIS I DARE YOU

kek draw tits on all of them

> women aren't defined by what they wear

> ms pacman is sexist

> stop using cheap identifiers

> btw we need a skirt to feel included

> toilet signs? sexist - not all women wear skirts

> crossing signs? WHY AREN'T THEY WEARING SKIRTS!??!!?!?!?!


niggers

"""language bias"""

fucking makes me feel ashamed to live in the same state, atleast people dont need to pay extra for this shit since they are just trialing them on the crossings that needed replacing

Doesn't matter. The people who came up with this will continue to do this for a living on your tax money.

And what about the fact these idiots believe there are more than 2 genders? Can't wait to see 52 different obnoxious traffic lights installed in the name of progress. kek.

also everyone in this thread who didn't put the correct answer - fuck you niggers

we need everyone on their fucking game and memeing the shit out of everything 24/7 the war hasn't stopped

start memeing you fucking cunts

then they would still be offended saying we aren't including all unidentified genders

That's not inclusive to POC who can't read.

Ah good! A Scotsman crossing. Those ladies look pretty pleased with themselves.

The lines are bias because they look like representations of penises.

Just to be clear - the people are acknowledging that the standard configuration for any human is to be male, correct? Because there is literally nothing marking out a stick figure as either sex. It is as rudimentary a depiction of a person as you possibly get.

If you gender a fucking stick figure as male, just because it isn't explicitly stated to be female, and then decide to make it female by putting a fucking SKIRT on it...then YOU are being sexist.

actually good.

GOD FUCKING DAMN IT
there truely is no escape from this bullshit

The stick figure used across the entire fucking world is entirely androgynous and is meant to represent a human. Nothing more or less specific than that.

Are women incapable of accepting signals from a stick figure that isn't wearing a dress? What about people with one leg? I mean, that androgynous stick figure appears to be able-bodied. How will amputees ever know when it's safe to cross if the figure doesn't have one leg and half an arm?

the upright line is a symbol of the phallus, that nefarious tool of oppressive patriarchy

how DARE you associate it with something positive in any context?

you fucking nigger cunts, I blame you

stop eating your own cum and start working at fixing this shit

look at pic, related - they are bitching about skirts on toilet signs, so 11 nigger cunts have gone and fucking "amazingly powerfully and bravely" redesigned them (funded by gov?) to "cleverly" get rid of the skirt, all while still asserting there's no difference between men and women, cunts

fucking step up game

this is where the shit happens

you have to fucking be involved in EVERY dementedly fucking retarded and petty piece of fucking filth shit and fight back 10x hard EVERYWHERE because these nigger cunts won't stop

its actually an amputee male with no legs and two massive shlongs

>implying only females wear dresses

FUCKING MATRIARCHY REEEEEEEEE

This

Implying people are only female when wearing a dress

You thick fucks any symbol that you have to explain is inherently worse than a symbol that explains itself on sight.

aka the core fucking concept

look how triggered you are bro. relax.

Everyone I know thinks this is stupid, and I'm neck deep in the far left. This is the centre left victorian exec paying lip service to dumb shit moderates who fancy themselves progressive. It means nothing, and accomplishes nothing more than getting whatever right wing elements exist in melbourne a little fanny flustered.

Literally who cares

>feminists in the 1900's fought for the right to vote
>feminists in the 2010's "fight" for having women traffic signs, forcing men to close their legs at the bus all while defending islam to the death, which literally wants them to have absolutely no voice and no freedom of choice, be forced to wear extremely prudish clothes, and be forced to do as their husband says.

Fat shaming
Phallic
Homophobic (implying I have to be straight to cross)

it'll confuse the trams that might be using the same crossing poles to have their signs on them - since these are the signs trams use.

but otherwise - it's good (since trams use them)

thicc

trams

>the dress makes her a woman

hey Sup Forums did they just assume the little red being's gender? I think you warriors of equality and justice know what must be done

Australian politicians just lack any form of common sense, like in my town we have fuck tones of pot holes but yet they think its a great idea to spend 25 grand a year on a artificial christmas tree

cancer

thicc = cancer

chub threads, fat threads, = cancer cancer cancer

thicc = aids cancer

the womens one is the one with their legs spread right?

I just need my particular physical traits to be properly represented in crosswalk signals. How will I know it's safe to cross if the signal isn't wearing coveralls and a hard hat?

I can't believe they left out the Handicapped from the crossing lights.
These tards obviously hate handicapped people.

now im just imagining an obese trans just on their knees screeching autisticly at a crossing because they cant cross because there is no transgender crossing light

Isn't the point of an artificial tree that you can just buy one and keep using it forever?

Proud Victorian here. Shit like this makes me incredibly pleased to live in a state that's progressive and inclusive, especially in time of hatred and trolling. Melbourne will lead the way for Australia to become a successful country into a future that's increasingly global, diverse, and multicultural.

In other news, I'm pleased to say that Melbourne is now officially responsible for all the economic growth in Victoria. It's a source of pride to me to know just how great my city is.

And men in positions of power just keep failing shit-tests...

fucking betas man jesus christ

i go to melbourne for weekends with the boys, spend fucking like 100 on train tickets then get harrased by non english speaking cunts to buy prostitutes in kings street and the same near the crown then having to look at all the homeless or maybe they are just uni students, no way to tell

>That's not inclusive to POC who can't read.
This is very underrated.

>if you gender a fucking stick figure as male, just because it isn't explicitly stated to be female, and then decide to make it female by putting a fucking SKIRT on it...then YOU are being sexist.
This is a well articulated point.

yes but you see the council members are retarted and want to appease all the lefties so they can get higher up in politics so they can get more rich

hahahaha
You know some losers who go to King St. That's literally the worst part of the city and exists purely so that cashed-up bogans can be relieved of their cash by whores and then beat each other up. The rest of Melbourne appreciates that King St exists just so we never otherwise have to deal with people like you. Thanks for patronising this precinct for its intended purpose. Likewise for the Casino. If you go there, you might as well be sucking James Packer's dick while giving him all your possessions.

I see.

Luckily I live in a land 95% populated by actual Christmas trees, so we can just send a guy in a pickup truck to go chop one down and bring it back within an hour for 50 bucks.

yeah i just have a dumbass friend who wants to stay close to the station without paying much, i think its the kingsstreet ibis we usually stay at, and the casino is really one of the only entertaining things to do if the footy isnt on, that and getting pissed at the lions head hotel at the city centeral

What's surprising about that? The dominant gender refuses to dominate/protect the submissive gender and literally keeps running away the more she tries to get the dominant to dominate/protect her.

Whitey is literally so autistic he can't figure this out and blames the women for getting desperate and jumping ship to some shitskin.

Then he gets mad about it and either finds a selfish asian like a loser or just goes tranny/gay

For fucks sake people STOP CONSUMING ESTROGEN PLASTICS

>Implying they were male before

appreciate the Russel coight gif, yeah its a mix of them trying to get the appreciation of either the more christian politicians while pleasing the lefities by "adding more social events and equality" pretty much until they get above town politics they are whores for who ever gives them power, also why do canadians and americans call utes pick up trucks? like i know they are fucking massive haha

As expected of melbourne.
The ABC is replacing all the male hosts with females today as well
the whole thing is just idiotic

what about the Sudanese crimewave, cant forget about that

Doesn't help that they keep shutting down major things in rural Vic like Hazelwood.

kek

Meanwhile in Japan

I'm from China and I can't read this, cater to me

Doesn't a Ute more often refer to something closer to a car? Sorta like an El Camino?

A pickup is huge with a larger and deeper box.

for us it covers any that have a tray, Ute is short for utility vehicle

This is a ute

This is the first time I've ever laughed angrily at something, cheers cunt

>the casino is really one of the only entertaining things to do if the footy isnt on
Honestly the Casino is the least entertaining thing in Melbourne. It's largely poker machines, which you can find at any shitty RSL anywhere in Australia.

Go do what Melbourne is good at:
- live sport
- live theatre
- the arts (go see a show at Heide)
- food (go eating along Getrude St or Smith St)
- gardens (drop acid in the Botanic Gardens)
- independent cinema
- good coffee
- live music (go to the Tote)

You're staying in the wrong part of the city too. Melbourne does't make itself easily accessible to visitors, but it's a huge amount of fun if you know where to go.

The delegates, Dahnald

So basically you can turn any vehicle into a ute by chopping the back off and replacing it with a box of some sort?

Hey I'm in Melbourne I'll hit these up with some hard to remove spray paint any one else up for it?

>Implying human rights apply to orientals.

yes, like we can make any car with a lift kit
