4. That was my thought too.
That would entirely change the meaning of the picture. Showing the two pictures side by side would show the gender bias pretty clearly.

:( It's raining. I think I'm medicating enough to keep up with it, without overmedicating. I guess I'm doing kinda okay. Today hurts, but not so much that I can't handle it. :) :hug:

13. That's a good point, but...
The same can be said of countless commercials and print-ads, sadly. This one's just a little more straightforward about it.

Why would 3M want to be associated with that?

8. I think everyone, of both genders, should be required to have a post it note with their name on it.
on their forehead. It's an idea whose time has come. Thank you. Leeroysphits 3M Corporation.

10. I knew a guy who got a "Hello, My name is: (his name)" sticker tattooed on his chest
for that very scenario. I thought it was very thoughtful of him. I'm thinking about doing the same thing, but I don't want to be a copy-cat.
