I agree. Note that the existing female avatar was already like that
before Filip's patch. The only change was simply to add more contrast to
the shade of gray used for the background in these avatars.
That said: yeah, we should definitely have a more appropriate female
avatar and a gender-neutral outline as well.

The Female one is much more genderised and almost sexualied compared to
the male one. It's fine to emphasise gendered aspects if that's the
desire but they should be balanced between the male and female one.
It's probably easier not to emphasise them however.
There should also be a non-genderised person avatar because many people
do not want to define themselves primarily or at all by being male or
female.
