Controversial ‘Women’s Network’ logo taken down after Twitter backlash
News AU ^

The logo for the Prime Minister and Cabinet’s (PM&C) “Women’s Network” has been taken down, after it was mocked on social media for its phallic appearance.

Rather than draw focus to the purpose of the Network – which, according to a description, ”promotes gender equality and supports members to succeed in their personal professional lives” – the logo ignited controversy when it was shared to Twitter on Sunday.

Many at first assumed the logo was a fake because of its overt resemblance to male genitalia, while others were furious that it detracted from the actual purpose of the Network.

Now, in a turn of events that echoes back to the infamous taxpayer-funded “milkshake” sexual consent ads last April, the logo has been removed from the PM&C’s website.

A spokesperson for the Department of PM&C told news.com.au in a statement that staff first rebranded the “staff diversity networks” – which includes the Women’s Network – in 2019, “to establish a consistent look and feel”.

“The Women’s Network logo retained a ‘W’ icon which staff had been using for a number of years,” they added.

This thread is useless without pictures (or at least graphics—considering the subjects involved maybe we should skip graphic pictures)

Hideous logo. The “W” also looks a bit like the Arabic letters for “Allah”.

LOL.

How did nobody that saw that not immediately realize?

Must’ve been a family hire for that graphic designer. “Sure, my brother-in-law is a designer...”

I had never heard until last month the designation “gold star” lesbian.

Means, as you said, never had the D.

Guess it’s just not a ‘point of reference’ for them.

The best description I heard of this was when someone said the logo had a “purple protuberance”. LOL!

I thought we’ve all been instructed to accept that women can have penises and men can have vaginas. Must be displeased because they left out the vagina.

I can see the resemblance but it’s too short.
