<\/a><\/p>\nI\u2019m not sure that designating car parks by gender is all that popular, however South Korea has introduced parking spaces for women-only.\u00a0 Yes, they are different to car parks that the men can use; these women-only car parks are, in fact, longer and wider.\u00a0 They are also frillier and prettier with their pink outlines.\u00a0 Another feature of the women-only car parks is that they are labelled with a figure of a person wearing a skirt. \u00a0That can only mean that these car parks are for South Korean women, and I suggest female tourists who hold a car license.<\/p>\n
Do you think that this is a great idea?\u00a0 Who actually thinks that men are better drivers than women, or at least park better than women?\u00a0 I do find the every-day car parks around the shops are very narrow at the best of times \u2013 but that\u2019s the same for everyone.\u00a0 Maybe those on the city councils, and shop owners themselves, are trying to create more car parking by narrowing the parks down, even more. \u00a0New cars do seem wider than ever, even with smaller engines under the bonnet.<\/p>\n
This is a fascinating topic.\u00a0 South Koreans have also resurfaced the pavements areas around the women-only car parks with a spongier pavement to make it easier to walk on in high heels.\u00a0 Also, these women-only parking areas a placed closer to the shops, receive better lighting, and I think have toilets for ladies close at hand.\u00a0 Men caught parking in pink women-only car parks receive a hefty fine.<\/p>\n
