Men are symbolised by a jutting arrow, an age-old instrument of war.

Women are signified by a cross, a design used on battlefields around the globe to identify non-combatants who bravely work to tend the wounded.

Don't get too worked up about the current notion that men are from Mars and women are from Venus – the truth is, we're all from Mother Earth!
