Oh Really?

.
I debated with myself whether or not to mention it, but finally succumbed to the sexist trivial.

A new shopping centre in Shijiazhuang city, in China's Hebei Province, has been provided with a women-only car park, painted in pink and light purple to appeal to female tastes and fitted with special signs. Female parking attendants have been trained to help guide women drivers into their parking spaces. The bays also have extra lighting.

What interested me most was not the colours, the special signs or the female attendants.

No, it was the fact that the parking bays are three feet wider than normal spaces.

‘Nuff said!
