Road Sign

[7rider]

Mr Silver,

All Woman sounds like the correct usage to me too... "All Women" makes me think that all of the women in the town must be in the Fire Dept.

That said, cool sign! Is the dept. still all-female or was it just so during the war?

Maybe it's a small town and all the women in town WERE on the department!

And, I think she said that it was all-women only during the war (I presume WWII).

RE: All "female" -- female what??? Women denotes humans, female can be the female gender of any animal.

as it was during WWII, I think the proper term is "all-dame!"

Oops, here we go again

Regina, you're right I was only using "female" as an example of singular vs. plural...not as an alternative for the sign.
