If you've ever shopped with a significant other, you know the feeling of so-not-wanting-to-be-there that can be equated with some sort of legal torture.
And let's be honest, it goes both ways — sometimes there's nothing worse than a partner nagging about how tired, hungry or bored they are when you're trying to get your retail therapy on.
It's not an uncommon desire to wish your beau could just be temporarily locked in a box somewhere while you do your thing, as long as they're entertained with something.
Looks like China's way ahead of us on this one.....

I can’t imagine what Japan would stock in the pods for the males.
Oh no!
That would make me “Pod People”!
What a great movie.
Attack Of The Husband Pod People!
We’ll climb out of our pods all scary looking headed for the food court for some pizza.
Not that I know, but I figure something oozy goozy...
Now, if they only had indoor shooting ranges....and go cart tracks.
What an innovation. I suggest they call it something super original like an “arcade”. Nothing like that has ever been seen in a mall before, I’m totally sure.
Or... Michelle Obama? HRC? Chelsea Clinton-whatever? John Podesta holding a Comet Pizza? John Podesta holding a bowl of Comet Ramen?
I like to sit and enjoy the eye candy.
Two prong solution.
First men, dont go shopping with women.
Second, make sure its on her own credit card and youre not married to her.
Back in the day, all department stores had bars.
The article states that the pods aren’t well ventilated. If I’m going to sit somewhere while my wife shops, by George...I’m going to be comfortable.
If they get these installed in malls in the US, get ‘em with AC/proper ventilation, and have attendants nearby (to weed out the riff-raff/homeless people/destructive teenagers). charge a small fee to use them...voila! You could make some good money, especially around the holiday season.
Women desperately WANT their man to be with them when they shop.
Does the average man reallllly want his wife to come with him to the range REGULARLY...?
I don’t get it.
Same with exercise:
Why can so many women ONLY do it in GROUPS...?
Ahhhhhhhhh......runs away screaming
They did?? Why on God’s green earth do they stop that civilized practice?
Hell, I’m just thankful if there’s someplace to sit.
Dang. We are alike after all. We found some common ground.
I keep trying to find a boyfriend for my wife. Someone who likes to shop and travel.
Good idea. Now, it they could just install #1.A Chamber Pot surrounded by beaded curtains.
#B. A Stationary Bike (Optional) to keep the circulation going.
I like to shop alone & would never want to bore my husband by making him accompany me. We will have lunch later. A real man does not hang around a mall.
