Gender neutrality in our society


Gender neutrality in our society
The Issue
The Websters dictionary describes a Snowman as "A representation of a human figure created with compressed snow." which is misogynistic and assigns a gender to said snow structure, pressuring gender roles onto our young minds.
In a day and age where gender eqiuality is crutial to making everyone feel welcome and accepted in our society, it should be our goal to remove all assumptions of gender in our every day talk. The corrected definition would describe a "Snowperson" rather than a Snowman. This would eliminate sexism that the term promotes, and removes the gender specific role of a Snowman.
