I see this and don’t see an issue, but that’s because I’m don’t belong to a group that will get saddened by the tickets. If something that seems small to me and others could have a big impact on someones day or how they see themselves then it’s a good change

These signs use language which is significant to people that identify as non-binary. Societal change starts with language. There are other descriptive words that could be used which are inclusive of ALL genders.

unfortunately you cannot please everyone.

I dont mind either way. There are so many bigger issues to deal with.

I don’t see any problems with that

They could label them by colours rather than boy and girl!

Haven’t people got better things to do! If your Son likes the “Girls pencil case”, get the Girls pencil case, if your Daughter likes the “Boys pencil case”, get the Boys pencil case or better yet, get the unisex ones.

Oh what I did not even notice and boys girl pencil case on the Tag they look the same to me lol

I honestly wouldn’t have even noticed the boy or girl on the tag but Woolies did do the right thing by addressing it and updating the tags.

It’s not something I would have noticed. I would buy whichever pencil case I or my child like the most.

Maybe instead of labeling it ‘girls’ or ‘boys’ they could label it closer to the colour or pattern on the actual item? I usually prefer the labels of things to have a description of the item so I can tell if it’s the correct item or not.

In all honestly, I wouldn’t have even noticed.

I think we have lot better things to worry about than gender neutrality. Each to it’s own though. I would just ignore it. But good work by woolies to honour someone’s opinion.

I think there are way worse things going on in supermarkets than pencil case signage dramas! I’d welcome more complaints about the state of the fruit and veggies after being refrigerated for months, then being sold off at exorbitant prices! The world has gone crazy!

I think this is something we totally can ignore.

Oh for God sake. This gender neutral rubbish is beginning to get so out of hand. There’s always gunna be someone that takes something to offence with abstutely everything. Why does the world have to walk on bloody eggshells so we dont upset those people. If your “boy” wants a pencil case that has “girl” colours on them, then buy him one and move on. Don’t make everyone else’s life a misery while your at it.

I’d only notice the price, not the small print but well done Woolworths for saying they will change their signage to keep everyone happy

Good to know

If i saw this, I wouldn’t have cared enough to give it my attention. I get why people are upset but its just something id brush off personally

I was taken aback the other day when I made a price enquiry on an item and the cashier told me that “a lot of random things don’t have prices anymore.” Apparently (others have also confirmed this) it is just a thing now that some supermarkets don’t strictly ensure that every single item has a price. There are some families or people on very strict budgets, who absolutely need to know the price of an item before they put it in their trolly.
