Are "men at work" signs sexist? (Page 2)

Question

Today I was triggered by a "caution men at work sign". For a start why do you never see a person at work sign or a woman at work sign? Then there's the question of why should I be the one to be cautious? Safety is their responsibility or can men not be trusted to injure passers by? We need a sign that says "people of various genders working carefully as possible but please be cautious just in case one of them has a little whoopsie"

It's sad that a very bland sign triggered you. Perhaps therapy may help.

grega239 · Answer

Did you see any woman there? I'm gonna guess no

MasterOfReality · Answer

Haha! Thought you were serious at first.. Good one.. yeah the problem is everyone LOOKING to be triggered!

Anonymous · Answer

It's a cautionary sign, that all recognize. If the signs were changed to persons at work, it would cease to have the ready, visceral intent and direction, that the sign is meant to give.

BossBilly · Answer

When you say to people " how are u guys doing?" Is that sexists? U were triggered by this? What if a guy flashes his dick at you? Will you turn to dust?

KrakenAttackin · Answer

To avoid this problem we should just outlaw "work" in general.

Anonymous · Answer

Although I'm a feminist, I am not at all "triggered" because of that sign, the sign says "men at work", if you check who's working, it's actually men.

stuntbrain · Answer

Would it be less sexist to have a woman at work sign in the kitchen or none at all?

Darkchild25 · Answer

No. I really don't think its a big deal. It's just a sign to make others aware of other people's presence.

Pete671 · Answer

No because men are more likely to be slapdash in health and safety, if it was women at work the sign would be more like "caution, women at work"

Ryfyle · Answer

I've accidentally totaled a Ford Focus by landing on it coming back from my lunch break. I don't come with warning lights. When I work, the world trembles, hence the sign.

bowenw · Answer

It would be simpler if it just said 'Caution, Crew at Work' or 'Caution Workers'.

Fromdusktilldawn · Answer

Soon shallow feminists say "mankind" is a bad word and want it to be femalekind

Ashlynnnn · Answer

Yes and No. It depends on your perspective. lets say the place is a strictly men work area then it would make sense to just have one gender. On the other hand it should not just say one gender. I suggest to not worry about it.

RingOfFire · Answer

Women at work? YOU SEXIST! How about transsexuals at work!

Wiredone · Answer

Around where I live they changed the signs to " construction zone". It covers all genders

I don't think its sexist sense you don't see any women out there but if women did start working those types of jobs than yea

Probably because there's no gold digging women down there doing those jobs where you see those signs.

loveslongnails · Answer

How about a sign that says: "CAUTION - Humans with machinery at work" ?

front2back · Answer

"Men" is used generically to describe a group of people regardless of sex, so no.

najekim · Answer

Lately I have been seeing more signs saying stuff like "Utility Work Ahead," "Road Work Ahead," "Mowing Ahead," even "Flagger Ahead."

TallAnon · Answer

No, but you are free to feel that way. It's fine for people to get triggered. It doesn't change shit.

Waldoe · Answer

LOL... ty lets just say "Workers doing non-gender specific things that may or may not benifit you directly, step carefully"

Daniel_Dano · Answer

Because its mostly men who do these types of jobs. Feminists should stop getting triggered over stupid things
