APPARENTLY, THIS LOGO IS SEXIST
Enterprise Florida, the group responsible for Florida’s economic development, unveiled a logo on Thursday that some are calling “sexist.”
But before we go any further, can you spot the alleged sexism?
Yup, it’s the orange tie. You see, because the logo uses an orange tie in place of the “i,” and most businesswomen don’t wear ties, the logo is supposedly discriminatory.
“I thought immediately that it set us back, all the work that we’ve done. It’s not that they have to make it pink or ‘girlie,’ but maybe put a briefcase or something like an iPhone or smart phone in there to represent business,” Pamela Rogan, the President of the Central Florida Chapter of NAWBO, the National Association of Women Business Owners, tells Fox 35.
“There are a lot of other icons I think can better represent business,” she adds.
Rogan said Enterprise Florida’s new logo may discourage female CEOs from moving to Florida.
