The ever so bright Vägverket (Swedish Road & Safety, albeit their take on the safety bit can be summed up in one giant speed camera) have decided that the Swedes need a gender neutral crossing sign, or at the very least have 50 % male and 50 % female signs (by which I do not mean one cross dressing sign, although that joke would have worked on so many levels).
No, I'm not joking.
So instead of increasing road safety by improving the roads (of which, according to a recent study, an astounding 50 % failed to meet approvable standards), Vägverket will spend a shitload of money to make 50 % of all crossing signs female? Where does it end? Will we need signs of different colors and shapes as well?
I am fully aware of the fact that me, as a man, writing this might make it hold less weight, but not a single woman (or a married one, for that matter) I've spoken to thinks this is a good idea, nor even one they could have ever dreamed of thinking up themselves.
It is simply that mindblowingly stupid.
If you disagree, I'm willing to bet you are too. Sorry to have to break it to you like this, but yes, you are a fucking retard. Your mom should have told you years ago. Don't blame me.
