On TV the female reading the weather is generally referred to as "The Weather Girl" ---- BUT---- when a male reads the weather he is referred to as "The Weather Man"
Now that we are in the age of equality, should there not be gender equality in descriptive names. ?
If they are to say "The weather Girl", then her male colleague should correctly be referred to as "The Weather Boy".
Conversely if they refer to "The Weather Man" his female colleague should correctly be referred to as "The Weather Woman" .
I don't see why women should be treated as less important or mature than their male colleagues.
