Sehrish Irum Youth: sehrish irum sehrish irum Lighting the way to gender equality in Germany

Politicians in the German city of Dortmund want to institute a 50/50 quota to ensure equality with female Ampelfrauen in the streets.

Representatives from the Social Democratic and Green parties there reasoned that since society gives equal treatment to men and women, it would "be consistent to partially modify traffic-light men to traffic-light women," The Guardian reported.

Germany isn't a feminist paradise. It has a gender pay gap of 20%, one of Europe's highest. Women occupy just 6% of executive board seats on the 30 largest companies on the country's blue-chip DAX index, according to Reuters, although Chancellor Angela Merkel is determined to enforce a quota for that too.

The concept of female versions of the traffic lights, known as Ampelfrauen, were first introducedin 2004. They would improve pedestrian safety because the triangular skirts would allow more light to show. You can find Ampelfrauen in several cities throughout Germany (including Bremen, Cologne, Dresden, Kassel, Magdeburg and Zwickau), but they are still largely outnumbered by their male counterparts.
