This may be the reason the question is asked in the first place. | |

| Mar 28, 2017 at 20:43 | comment | added | Ooker | +1 for the linguistic aspect. From your data, I have an impression that big companies what to be projected as not being sexism by placing female first, which is overreacted. If they really aren't sexism, then the options should be written as how they flows from the minds, which obeys linguistic rules. | |
