HANGZHOU, China, June 1 (UPI) — Officials in a Chinese city said larger parking spaces meant only for female drivers are in response to difficulties women have while parking.

The female-only spaces, designated in parking lots in the Tonglu highway service area in Hangzhou, Zhejiang, are 50 percent larger than normal parking spaces and are outlined in pink with a drawing of a skirted figure similar to one that might be found on a bathroom door.

Pan Tieyong, director of the Tonglu highway service area, said the spots were installed in response to female drivers in the area having trouble backing into spots and being seen “parking carelessly.”

“True respect for women entails letting women enjoy the same rights as men,” the user wrote.

LOL! And if you’re feeling a little feminine today are the spots fair game? Oh, wait. China, not the U.S. so maybe not.

How about trannies?

Are they allowed even if they leak, whine, screech or stutter?

Good point, after all we’re talking about drivers who are both women AND asian. They might need even more help.

“True respect for women entails letting women enjoy the same rights responsibilities as men,”

Fixed it.

I haven’t seen any posts insulting women drivers yet, guess they’re scared.

Well, why not. Let it not be said that China does not care specially for its women, after having forced the abortion of so many of them. It has to make it up somehow.

There is a solid reason the stereotype about Asian female drivers exists. I’m just saying...
