Could have just put a big watch on it but to each their own.
Or a hard one, balls, pubes, and all and instead of the female hand, some red lips wrapped around the shaft. It would definitely show male/female interaction.

A woman could wear a tie... A man could paint his nails........... the point is there are easier ways to GENERALLY distinguish between the arms of men and women. And hair would be one of them.
Looks like shes passing with her left hand and hes receiving with his right hand. So she's passing the baton from directly above him...? This thing makes less sense the longer you look at it.
Left-handed people don't grab batons with their right hands.
Hi, left handed person here!
Weird thing: For me, fine motor skills are the left hand's job, gross motor skills are the right hand's job. I can't write with my right, but I can't throw a baseball with my left. I doubt I'm alone in that.
The baton thing could go either way. Stop assuming my handedness.
I ran track for six years, four of those in relays.
It depends on the starters hand dominance, and what relay. Typically left handed handoffs are superior in relays because you run counter clockwise on tracks, and a left handoff is closer on an inside turn. Also you naturally have your body facing the inside of the tracking during handoffs on the 400mx4 relay so you can see the runner come, which naturally means you pass with the left hand.

I'm lefty and wore left my whole life, but just recently when I bought some new watches I switched. Told myself after a few days it'll feel natural, and it does now. I don't check my left arm anymore lol. You should try. Your watch gets more beat up when it's on the hand you write with all the time.
Not even just beating the watch up cosmetically... I'm not really a watch-wearer but I know if I wear a bracelet or something I very quickly get frustrated by both the sound and the feeling of it hitting other stuff. I won't wear earrings because I answer the phone all day and I won't wear a ring on my right hand because of the mouse. How does this not bother other people?!

Chain link bracelets go on my left. Watch always on. But bracelets can get a little beat up no big deal lol.
As far as bothering me, I get passed it, just like how my watch felt weird for a few days. Your mind has a way for getting passed it lol. Just gotta put up with the annoyance for a few days. Like how the fuck do women do anything with nails is beyond me.
I'm a woman and I still have no idea. I cut mine short-ish frequently just because typing gets more difficult for me the longer they are (that and the clicking sound of nails on keys). Definitely helps when you're peeling the backing off a label, though...

Its not that its more natural to look at your non dominant wrist (it really isnt) its that the work you do with your dominant hand tends to be the heavier lifting so you can damage your watch through shock (like while using a hammer) or just whackin it off shit a lot more easily
Also pressin the knobs n stuff is easier then

Both my parents are right-handed. Mom was an archer so she removed all accessories from her left arm. Dad once broke his left arm, got a cast, and got used to wearing his watch on the right wrist.
So as a kid who got his first watch I just thought the right wrist is where watches went, I guess I thought strangers were weird or never even noticed them.
I always thought that due to the design of this one, it was meant to be used on the right hand. (You hold it with your left hand and pushes the red power button with your left thumb, for example. If you tried to do this on the left wrist you had to be a contortionist :P )
Normally people place their watch on the non dominant wrist. That way you can use your dominant hand to press the buttons and stuff.

My dominant hand (right) is generally flat on my desk using the mouse and my left hand is using tab, shift, ctrl-c/v etc. This is why I wear my watch on my right hand. As far as 'lift' goes, my left is getting much more of it.
However, I am trying to use the numpad more, because it's faster.
I think the guy above you was referring to the buttons on the watch (but I could be wrong).
Also, I'm right-handed but I wear my watch on my right wrist. It's a habit picked up from playing cello-- you can play with a watch on your bow arm, but the watch can hit the 'shoulder' of the cello if you wear it on your left wrist

The reason people wear watches on their non-dominant hand is because watches used to have to be wound, and the winder and stern were on the right side. People have been using watches for a very long time, centuries, and they would hold the watch in their left hand while winding it with the right, because 9/10 of the world is right handed.

my one semester of japanese 100 is kicking in right about now; is "holocaust something something also hitler something something something" an accurate translation of that flair?
I'm right handed too and I do this. I find it really awkward to do up a watch strap using my right hand, and I don't like the feel of it on my left wrist. Also, the winder on my favourite watch is pretty big and digs into my hand if I bend my left wrist back.
I also can't eat with a knife and fork in the correct/normal hand, I use my right hand to hold the knife.
I'm right handed and wear watches on my right hand. It feels so unnatural on my left hand I don't really know how to explain it. Get called out for this all the time.

If you put it on your left arm then then when your wrist is at 90 degrees the top of your hand hits the button putting it to sleep or waking it up, maybe selecting an app of something depending on the model.

Male models are often used in assassinations because they're very fit and used to being ordered around
You can't use any Markdown text with the automatic /r/ linksโthey directly parse whatever comes after them, and as soon as they hit an invalid character (anything that's not letters a-z, 0-9, or _ (_can't be the first character, either)), the link will be cut off. So I could actually link to /r/CrappyDesign by typing
which still links to /r/CrappyDesign because it cuts off at the invalid * character. Since your very first character is invalid, the resulting zero character string is obviously not a valid subreddit name, so it doesn't even become a link.

But women don't have hands
[deleted] ยท 77 points ยท Posted at 17:31:22 on January 25, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I suppose the whole "default male" problem presents itself here, so I think it's valid to want to make one of the hands obviously female so that women feel included. It's an unfortunate fact about our society, that if something isn't explicitly female, it's assumed male, and this has the side effect of making women feel secondary to men. This is usually on the subconscious level.
Men have the same problem, where if something is explicitly female, they feel excluded as well. It's just tougher for women because "not explicitly female means male" is a far wider range of stuff.
Anyway, I don't know how important this actually is, but trying to make women feel included (who often feel excluded by default) is a legitimate thing to do.
not for a professional race where people are competing for money and titles, no, but this is clearly a staff relay. more of a team-building exercise. it'd be weird if it wasn't mixed sex.

If it's a workplace poster anything like my workplace posters, you must evenly distribute every single factor about the people that appear on them. Gender, race, height, weight, eye and hair colour, even clothing to a degree... everything is super finely balanced so no one can be offended.
It's another conversation on whether that's a good or bad thing, but from a design perspective I find it interesting to look for once you notice it.

Grade school health class book pictures. They sure had a lot of black wheelchair kids.
In my middle school science textbook I noticed a bunch of people in wheelchairs. So I flipped through a bit of it and counted the people and exactly 50% of the people in each chapter were in wheelchairs.
I mean, yay for inclusiveness, but when half the people are in wheelchairs I start to think you're making a statement about the safety of the experiments in the book
If you're taking masculine and feminine as the only two things which need to be represented and therefore evenly distributed as this "designer" clearly has, one might guess the simpler way to accomplish this is by making neither hand overtly masculine or feminine. (Seems especially easy since one hand doesn't even have visible fingers.)
In fact, you could expand representation easily by making two ambiguous hands but one which is darker toned and the other white.
I doubt it's about 'equal representation' as much as it's about the apparently inescapable need to gender everything.

I think it's pretty obvious that there's an order to who hands off to who. Male, female, male, etc.
I think it's because it's a staff event so just showing business casual dress. I think this is creative and good design. Same with the nail polish- regular runners don't wear it but a woman at work who is suddenly in a relay might.

Honestly if you didn't think about it you might have just accepted it. Unprompted it might take a full 5 seconds before someone realises the absurdity of it.
Line art is just art defined by the use of lines, often, but not exclusively, without nuanced value information (such as gradients).
Lines can be made of any color you want. I'm personally a fan of doing drawings with a Terra Cotta Prismacolor pencil on tan-toned paper. Those would be line art without black or white.
[deleted] ยท 3 points ยท Posted at 20:42:20 on January 26, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I'm not sure how this is relevant. The person I replied to seemed to think clip art was all line based and black and white. Neither are true.
In my experience, the company will ask for race equality if it's global. Otherwise if it's just getting sent out to the US, they don't say anything.
One particular company I worked with was always picky (can't have a glass of wine in a photo because it promotes drinking), but never about race until we started offering our services to their global offices as well. Then it was "there are too many white ladies. it needs to be more diverse."
And they were right. Our designer at the time was a 30 year old white dude and didn't see the problem. "The photos with white women just look better." - I shit you not his response.
It's in Dublin, where most people have light/white skin. Nobody thinks black people are excluded from the race, it's a non-issue. The picture says it all, it's a relay race for men and women in Dublin, it does a good job of that.
[deleted] ยท -2 points ยท Posted at 18:30:39 on January 25, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Dublin, not Berlin, it's the capital of Ireland. A quick google search tells me only ~1% of the population identify as black. Over 94% are white, making the hand black or brown simply isn't representative of the population. So if they had 20 random hands then just 1 would be 'non-white', here they only have 2.
It's simply unnecessary. If the relay-race was trying to promote racial diversification then it would make sense, but not everything is a racial statement, this is just a 1-time athletic emblem. They have not done anything wrong, they don't need correcting, forcing racial diversity into everything is awkward.
"There are plural hands therefore they need to be a distinctive races", is not a factual, logical, or morally superior statement.

You're taking this waaay too far and it's very alarming.
Woah man, calm down, you've smoked too much crack. I'm just responding to you friend, we've got something special going on, can't you feel it?
I was literally saying in countries with predominantly white people they tend to care about diversity less in my experience. And when you go globally it becomes more of a concern.
Well, the part about going global is a given. If you are branching across borders then obviously you will have a more diverse group of people to represent.
But I don't see why you think countries with white people care less about diversity. Chinese ads feature Chinese people, Indian ads feature Indians, it's the same in every country, in Africa they probably use black hands in their emblems. Example- Nigerian ads.
I said I THINK it should be diverse anyway.
And I'm saying I think you are wrong.
Imagine you were given the chance to make this emblem the way you want, man and woman, black and white. And someone comes to you and says, "I think you should have made this more diverse, why didn't you add any handicapped people? Why aren't one of the hands fat? Can you please show that one of them is gay!"
Whoa. Wait a minute. There's no crack over here. Just weed. Wait let me hit one first since most of this conversation has been stoned responses. I feel like this one should be too. Just to keep our vibes going.
Alright I'm back. And I made peas. Mmmmmm.
I guess you're right about the only white people thing. I was mostly thinking of including the minorities and my brain just didn't connect that part where white people can also be a minority. Something something white privilege probably goes here.
I agree with you on that at least. I am actually wondering what the odds are I can get access to other countries stock photos for our global posters.
Anyway. I don't think any 1 specific item needs to include diversity. For example I make an emblem who knows what will be on it. Maybe all the people are fat. Maybe they are all Chinese.
It's more of the overall image. Across the company is every photo always white people. Well if 1/20 people aren't white then 1/20 of those should be non white to be inclusive.
And I think that should be done just because ya know, it's nice. It's not like a moral outrage or anything, but it's easy to do and doesn't hurt anyone. Like JC Penny or whatever started putting gay families into their ads at some point. They didn't have to but it was pretty cool of them to be more inclusive.
Seems like the right thing to do.

It's bad enough that it's comedic. It conveys the message and is memorable. Seems like a good design to this pleb.
But nobody thought of just making the male arm hairy? Its not like women can't wear ties so if people complained about 'but women can be hairy too' it would be a moot point.
I think the title is red herring - it's an office relay, so having the arm dressed in office attire supports the general theme and secondarily makes it clear it's a man. Seems fine to me.
I'm aware that the positioning of the fingers are correct but that pinky and ring finger are way too girthy to belong to the hand of a woman. Those are man hands Jerry! Look at your pinky and ring compared to your other fingers. Now look at "hers".

On second view, it sort of looks like the fingers are getting girthier toward the pinky side of the hand. Almost like the designer accidentally reversed the direction of the hand.
Hot anime schoolgirls, obviously.
Who wears a tie anymore in non governmental role?
There's like, government, secret service, hockey players when they do conference, and hot anime school girls, obviously.
No but, yeah, I'm not sexist, so I associate ties with "business", not with "man", because everyone does business.
It might have well been a smokestack with a tie for all that matters.

Exactly, no one is realizing that it's probably a staff event where the employees are typically dressed in business attire, which contrasts the idea of a relay race. It's a good design imo

I think there's a misunderstanding because there's no context. For example if a design was made for your specific company that only employees would understand, then it wouldn't be an inherently bad design because people outside of the business don't understand it, it just wasn't created for the people outside of the company.
I don't understand this post. Is it just because you think it's poorly drawn? I think they did a decent enough job, although I would personally never wear a wrist tie with stripes to a relay race. How gauche.

The fingers on the "woman's" hand are a bit suspicious. Looks as if she's all thumbs. And her wrist is in a pretty uncomfortable position - just try doing that pose with your hand. The tie hand isn't grasping the baton as much as it is hanging on for dear life.
The tie isn't necessary as an indication of work. This image is clearly a homage to every shitty PowerPoint presentation ever made. Add some Wordart and we're good to go, team!
The point isn't the gender of the hands, it's the fact that the hands represent workers, thats why its in a collar and tie ffs. I only think this is crappy because it looks like some weird amalgamate of clip art and ms paint

Well I still think it's crappy, but I think the reason people are "agreeing" that it is supposed to represent a man is because the post title tells you it's supposed to represent a man before you can form your own opinion about it.

The collar and tie is meant to indicate the events relation to workplaces.
You know, those places where people of both genders often wear collared shirts and ties.
Not only is the male arm not wearing a shirt to go along with it's collar and tie, but it's also backwards. You'd think it would be in the same direction as the palm but I guess not.
HAHAHA! That's amazing, that's not CrappyDesign, that's genius. I mean, the emblem itself is god-awful, I don't even want to comment on it, but the idea of men running around with collared wrists with ties cracks me up.

I'd also like to point out that apparently the baton is being passed down from above. The tie-hand is reaching up to grab the baton, so either the nail polish hand belongs to a really tall person, or this is a really weird relay race.
"How do we make it clear that it's a human hand receiving the baton from a mutant hand?"
Banjaroo ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 21:21:29 on January 25, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I'd be more concerned about how the arms suggest the bodies to be. Looks like someone passing a baton to someone above them and if you're going for equality by having male and female hands then one shouldn't be 'above' the other.
[deleted] ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 21:23:54 on January 25, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
It's a staff relay, so I think it's supposed to signify staff and management working together... Management wearing the tie...

We don't want to show any fuckin, lesbian relay going on over here. We got 2, fucking skeletons, over here, but we gotta give one bone titties to make sure everyone knows it's a straight skeleton couple.

This is what happens when you tell your designer from a third-world country that you're paying 4 dollars per design that you want, "another arm, but wearing a shirt" to hold onto the other end of the baton.

Looks like shes passing with her left hand and hes receiving with his right hand. So she's passing the baton from directly above him...? This thing makes less sense the longer you look at it.

Hi, left handed person here!
Weird thing: For me, fine motor skills are the left hand's job, gross motor skills are the right hand's job. I can't write with my right, but I can't throw a baseball with my left. I doubt I'm alone in that.
The baton thing could go either way. Stop assuming my handedness.

I ran track for six years, four of those in relays.
It depends on the starters hand dominance, and what relay. Typically left handed handoffs are superior in relays because you run counter clockwise on tracks, and a left handoff is closer on an inside turn. Also you naturally have your body facing the inside of the tracking during handoffs on the 400mx4 relay so you can see the runner come, which naturally means you pass with the left hand.

I'm lefty and wore left my whole life, but just recently when I bought some new watches I switched. Told myself after a few days it'll feel natural, and it does now. I don't check my left arm anymore lol. You should try. Your watch gets more beat up when it's on the hand you write with all the time.

Not even just beating the watch up cosmetically... I'm not really a watch-wearer but I know if I wear a bracelet or something I very quickly get frustrated by both the sound and the feeling of it hitting other stuff. I won't wear earrings because I answer the phone all day and I won't wear a ring on my right hand because of the mouse. How does this not bother other people?!
Diial ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 04:39:59 on January 26, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Chain link bracelets go on my left. Watch always on. But bracelets can get a little beat up no big deal lol.
As far as bothering me, I get passed it, just like how my watch felt weird for a few days. Your mind has a way for getting passed it lol. Just gotta put up with the annoyance for a few days. Like how the fuck do women do anything with nails is beyond me.

Its not that its more natural to look at your non dominant wrist (it really isnt) its that the work you do with your dominant hand tends to be the heavier lifting so you can damage your watch through shock (like while using a hammer) or just whackin it off shit a lot more easily
Also pressin the knobs n stuff is easier then

Both my parents are right-handed. Mom was an archer so she removed all accessories from her left arm. Dad once broke his left arm, got a cast, and got used to wearing his watch on the right wrist.
So as a kid who got his first watch I just thought the right wrist is where watches went, I guess I thought strangers were weird or never even noticed them.

I do it this way 'cause my first watch was a Casio with infrared blaster.
I always thought that due to the design of this one, it was meant to be used on the right hand. (You hold it with your left hand and pushes the red power button with your left thumb, for example. If you tried to do this on the left wrist you had to be a contortionist :P )

Normally people place their watch on the non dominant wrist. That way you can use your dominant hand to press the buttons and stuff.

My dominant hand (right) is generally flat on my desk using the mouse and my left hand is using tab, shift, ctrl-c/v etc. This is why I wear my watch on my right hand. As far as 'lift' goes, my left is getting much more of it.
However, I am trying to use the numpad more, because it's faster.

I think the guy above you was referring to the buttons on the watch (but I could be wrong).
Also, I'm right-handed but I wear my watch on my right wrist. It's a habit picked up from playing cello-- you can play with a watch on your bow arm, but the watch can hit the 'shoulder' of the cello if you wear it on your left wrist

The reason people wear watches on their non-dominant hand is because watches used to have to be wound, and the winder and stern were on the right side. People have been using watches for a very long time, centuries, and they would hold the watch in their left hand while winding it with the right, because 9/10 of the world is right handed.

It's not really because of buttons it's because you use your dominant hand to put it on and take it off, which requires a bit of dexterity.

I also can't eat with a knife and fork in the correct/normal hand, I use my right hand to hold the knife.

If you put it on your left arm then then when your wrist is at 90 degrees the top of your hand hits the button putting it to sleep or waking it up, maybe selecting an app of something depending on the model.

Explicitly linking it with Markdown works, if that's what you meant:
becomes
/r/EmboldenTheE
You can't use any Markdown text with the automatic /r/ linksโthey directly parse whatever comes after them, and as soon as they hit an invalid character (anything that's not letters a-z, 0-9, or _ (_can't be the first character, either)), the link will be cut off. So I could actually link to /r/CrappyDesign by typing
and it'll show up like this
/r/CrappyDesignEvolved
which still links to /r/CrappyDesign because it cuts off at the invalid * character. Since your very first character is invalid, the resulting zero character string is obviously not a valid subreddit name, so it doesn't even become a link.

But women don't have hands
[deleted] ยท 77 points ยท Posted at 17:31:22 on January 25, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I suppose the whole "default male" problem presents itself here, so I think it's valid to want to make one of the hands obviously female so that women feel included. It's an unfortunate fact about our society, that if something isn't explicitly female, it's assumed male, and this has the side effect of making women feel secondary to men. This is usually on the subconscious level.
Men have the same problem, where if something is explicitly female, they feel excluded as well. It's just tougher for women because "not explicitly female means male" is a far wider range of stuff.
Anyway, I don't know how important this actually is, but trying to make women feel included (who often feel excluded by default) is a legitimate thing to do.

I get this as a relay that's being ran by both sexes in the same race (and possibly in mixed teams), which I don't think is normal for relay races.

If it's a workplace poster anything like my workplace posters, you must evenly distribute every single factor about the people that appear on them. Gender, race, height, weight, eye and hair colour, even clothing to a degree... everything is super finely balanced so no one can be offended.
It's another conversation on whether that's a good or bad thing, but from a design perspective I find it interesting to look for once you notice it.

In my middle school science textbook I noticed a bunch of people in wheelchairs. So I flipped through a bit of it and counted the people and exactly 50% of the people in each chapter were in wheelchairs.
I mean, yay for inclusiveness, but when half the people are in wheelchairs I start to think you're making a statement about the safety of the experiments in the book

If you're taking masculine and feminine as the only two things which need to be represented and therefore evenly distributed as this "designer" clearly has, one might guess the simpler way to accomplish this is by making neither hand overtly masculine or feminine. (Seems especially easy since one hand doesn't even have visible fingers.)
In fact, you could expand representation easily by making two ambiguous hands but one which is darker toned and the other white.
I doubt it's about 'equal representation' as much as it's about the apparently inescapable need to gender everything.

Line art is just art defined by the use of lines, often, but not exclusively, without nuanced value information (such as gradients).
Lines can be made of any color you want. I'm personally a fan of doing drawings with a Terra Cotta Prismacolor pencil on tan-toned paper. Those would be line art without black or white.

In my experience, the company will ask for race equality if it's global. Otherwise if it's just getting sent out to the US, they don't say anything.
One particular company I worked with was always picky (can't have a glass of wine in a photo because it promotes drinking), but never about race until we started offering our services to their global offices as well. Then it was "there are too many white ladies. it needs to be more diverse."
And they were right. Our designer at the time was a 30 year old white dude and didn't see the problem. "The photos with white women just look better." - I shit you not his response.
Anecdotal evidence, but might be an explanation.

It's in Dublin, where most people have light/white skin. Nobody thinks black people are excluded from the race, it's a non-issue. The picture says it all, it's a relay race for men and women in Dublin, it does a good job of that.

Dublin, not Berlin, it's the capital of Ireland. A quick google search tells me only ~1% of the population identify as black. Over 94% are white, making the hand black or brown simply isn't representative of the population. So if they had 20 random hands then just 1 would be 'non-white', here they only have 2.
It's simply unnecessary. If the relay-race was trying to promote racial diversification then it would make sense, but not everything is a racial statement, this is just a 1-time athletic emblem. They have not done anything wrong, they don't need correcting, forcing racial diversity into everything is awkward.
"There are plural hands therefore they need to be a distinctive races", is not a factual, logical, or morally superior statement.

Woah man, calm down, you've smoked too much crack. I'm just responding to you friend, we've got something special going on, can't you feel it?
Well, the part about going global is a given. If you are branching across borders then obviously you will have a more diverse group of people to represent.
But I don't see why you think countries with white people care less about diversity. Chinese ads feature Chinese people, Indian ads feature Indians, it's the same in every country, in Africa they probably use black hands in their emblems. Example- Nigerian ads.
And I'm saying I think you are wrong.
Imagine you were given the chance to make this emblem the way you want, man and woman, black and white. And someone comes to you and says, "I think you should have made this more diverse, why didn't you add any handicapped people? Why aren't one of the hands fat? Can you please show that one of them is gay!"

Whoa. Wait a minute. There's no crack over here. Just weed. Wait let me hit one first since most of this conversation has been stoned responses. I feel like this one should be too. Just to keep our vibes going.
Alright I'm back. And I made peas. Mmmmmm.
I guess you're right about the only white people thing. I was mostly thinking of including the minorities and my brain just didn't connect that part where white people can also be a minority. Something something white privilege probably goes here.
I agree with you on that at least. I am actually wondering what the odds are I can get access to other countries stock photos for our global posters.
Anyway. I don't think any 1 specific item needs to include diversity. For example I make an emblem who knows what will be on it. Maybe all the people are fat. Maybe they are all Chinese.
It's more of the overall image. Across the company is every photo always white people. Well if 1/20 people aren't white then 1/20 of those should be non white to be inclusive.
And I think that should be done just because ya know, it's nice. It's not like a moral outrage or anything, but it's easy to do and doesn't hurt anyone. Like JC Penny or whatever started putting gay families into their ads at some point. They didn't have to but it was pretty cool of them to be more inclusive.
Seems like the right thing to do.

No but, yeah, I'm not sexist, so I associate ties with "business", not with "man", because everyone does business.
It might have well been a smokestack with a tie for all that matters.

Exactly, no one is realizing that it's probably a staff event where the employees are typically dressed in business attire, which contrasts the idea of a relay race. It's a good design imo
-fuckyouthatswhy- ยท 10 points ยท Posted at 17:20:50 on January 25, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
If no one realises what it is meant to mean, then surely it is inherently poor design, no?
NotLucas ยท 3 points ยท Posted at 17:24:48 on January 25, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I think there's a misunderstanding because there's no context. For example if a design was made for your specific company that only employees would understand, then it wouldn't be an inherently bad design because people outside of the business don't understand it, it just wasn't created for the people outside of the company.
Edit: http://www.dublinstaffrelay.com
Its meant for corporate workers to have fun away from their typically professional careers, I.e Nurses racing doctors, bankers racing brokers.
Good design in context.

The fingers on the "woman's" hand are a bit suspicious. Looks as if she's all thumbs. And her wrist is in a pretty uncomfortable position - just try doing that pose with your hand. The tie hand isn't grasping the baton as much as it is hanging on for dear life.
The tie isn't necessary as an indication of work. This image is clearly a homage to every shitty PowerPoint presentation ever made. Add some Wordart and we're good to go, team!

That's easy. Most males are furrier than females due to testosterone, which promotes more hair growth than female hormones.
Put some dark hairs on the back of the hands, and a bit on the dorsa of the fingers. That would do it.

TheYang ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 18:03:25 on January 25, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
it hasn't. from left to right it's the four fingers plus the thumb, the nail of which is irritatingly arranged to look like a fifth finger

Good example of why cartoon characters often have 4 fingers instead of 5. Looks weird af.f

I'd also like to point out that apparently the baton is being passed down from above. The tie-hand is reaching up to grab the baton, so either the nail polish hand belongs to a really tall person, or this is a really weird relay race.

I'd be more concerned about how the arms suggest the bodies to be. Looks like someone passing a baton to someone above them and if you're going for equality by having male and female hands then one shouldn't be 'above' the other.
