Male symbol? I thought they’d used the Volvo logo as a clever visual metaphor.
We erroneously used a male symbol instead of a female symbol.

How did women even notice this gaffe in the first place? Is Express delivered to their kitchens?
They give them out at metro, but I get your joke. I prefer the male symbol. It looks like they are moving in one direction. The female symbol cover looks like they’re just all standing around trying to figure out what to do next.
Yikes. How would like to have been the decision maker on that screw-up? Think about how many people had to sign off on that.
Sort of like the NY Knicks.
Methinks they need to hire more female editors. Or at least an editor who knows the obvious difference between male and female symbols.
someone must be looking for a job at fox network…
OK…you and Eustace are on FIRE, all across the site today. 
So what’s wrong with the cover? It perfectly symbolizes this new male dominated era of Trump and “grab 'em by the pussy.”
It doesn’t take a female editor to know the difference between the male and female symbols.
The mirror of Venus & sword & shield of Mars were adopted by biologists yrs ago as a shorthand.
Is this nerd info or what?
This has to be some prankster pulling a fast one though…just has to.
Just attempting a small joke. Again I have failed. ![]()
Then I’m a nerd because I didn’t actually know where the symbols came from, and find it interesting. The Volvo people used it because it’s also associated with iron. So there’s our Thursday nerd-out.
It reminds me of the US Postage stamp with the plane flying upside down. The mistake makes it very valuable.
I doubt it was intentional but it certainly put a bigger spotlight on the paper and the march - so not an entirely bad result.
I see what you did there. I think.
Wow, how is Faux News going to top this?
I think we should get beyond these strict gender assignments. Let the symbols self-identify.
