figure in peril - detail

Detail of the previous pic (with a bit more focus).
Initially, she thought it was okay as she was. But somebody claimed she was not recognisable as "a female" because there was no red (a colour that stands for "female"), and that it was not user-friendly. Thus, she was forced to wear a nice red skirt.
In time, she might be painted all red with this felt-tip marker (this pen isn't made for "painting" but "drawing").
A customer toilet sign. Tokyo, Japan.
I feel really sorry for the designer. *sigh*
