Dem introduces serious bill in the House requiring gender equality in crash-test dummies
++++++++++++++++++++++++
Are the dummies the problem? Or are the cars the problem? It’s for sure not the drivers, obviously. Shouldn’t cars be more gender friendly?? And what about dogs? Shouldn’t they have their own crash test dummies?? I watch those Subaru commercials and NOW the dogs have a pet cat. So, what about cats?? #crashtestdummiesareunfair #crashtestdummiesaregenderbiased #dogsneedtheirowncrashtestdummies

I seem to remember hearing about a plane crash test in the 80’s that was delayed and then had additional costs incurred because of under-representation of minorities (apparently the crash test dummies at first were all white...).
Someone complained, so NASA and the FAA got some appropriately pigmented dummies and put them in the open seats in the back of the plane....
Whups.
Additional time and effort was spent to insure that the dummies were properly mixed as to coloration.
Test was flown, aircraft went up in a ball of flames.
(note the dummy in the red hat going all Biden on his neighbor at about 19:00)

I guess they didn’t account for gender, although pictures show a baby-sized dummy aboard.
