Men at Work Signs Sexist

Men at Work signs are sexist. At least that is what the city of Atlanta was told and bowed down to. It seems the editor of a women’s magazine called PINK (where are the legal teams for Victoria’s Secret and Juicy Couture when you need them) has declared them sexist and they shall be removed. She even made the Today show.

This is the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard of. If this is the best cause a woman can come up with then one certainly needs to consider one’s sanity. In therapy they call this the case of the “shoulds.”

Just consider for one second if everybody who thinks something “SHOULD” be a certain way got their way, right or wrong. If we all had a sense of entitlement on how things “SHOULD” be.

Can Mrs. Good (yes I said Mrs., that is if she is using her husband’s name), can she find something better to do with her time like assist less fortunate women in getting better education and jobs in the inner cities? Maybe she does, I don’t know that she doesn’t, but it certainly didn’t make the national news.

I think Cynthia Good should foot the bill for replacement signs so the money doesn’t come from something more important that the city needs, like a lawyer.

Since PINK is a magazine published in Atlanta Georgia (with a female mayor), I imagine she has a little more pull and probably her influence will remain local. One would hope. Mary Lynn at Marylynnformation is a PINK Magazine subscriber, a smart one at that. She brings up some very good points about why PINK Magazine editor Cynthia Good should tread lightly.

Let’s list some Good causes to consider. What would be your most important cause for women?
