Siddhartha Ghai <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #38 from Siddhartha Ghai <[email protected]> --- (In reply to comment #28) > Another design practice that I'm a fan of is to go with more abstract user > icons or animal icons e.g. github's > https://dribbble.s3.amazonaws.com/users/8063/screenshots/873671/ > github_icon_vector_shape_teaser.png I'd just like to point out that animal icons would not be wise since languages may associate certain animals with certain genders by default. For example, a user with native language hindi might consider a cat icon to be female and a lion to be male. Cat: male: बिल्ला, female: बिल्ली, latter is what is generally default usage. Lion invokes a male idea since hindi, like English, defaults to lion (शेर), not lioness (शेरनी) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
