Well from doing a google search I cannot find anything that explicitly states that you cannot have a job title that is gender specific. As far as I can make out it is when advertising a job vacancy that can be fulfillied by either a man or a woman that the job title has to either be gender neutral, eg Draughtsperson or you have to specify both eg Draughtsman/Draughtswoman. That I can accept, but once the job is offered I see no legal reason why the gender specific title can't be used.

At work they can't see what the fuss is. They all shout "It's the law but I bet none of them have read the law.
