I’m sure there’s a nice reason behind it, and it doesn’t hurt anyone.

The tire bumpers are lighting a fire in me I didn’t know I had. Every car bumper is sticking out because of them. I’m so uncomfortable. REMOVE THE BUMPERS AND NOBODY GETS HURT

I wish we had those for people with small kids. With larger spots, so we can get the kids out easy

It’s cool that they give them pink fighter jet logos.

In the USA certain dudes would literally file lawsuits about this. They also hated ladies only theater nights for the Barbie movie.

Either that car is too big or those spots are very small. If another car parks next to that one, it looks like it’ll be too close to open its doors.

…Not the point of the post but why the tire blocks so far back from the front end of the parking spot?
I’d guess it’s to protect the wall and perhaps leave space for the median… but that cars pulled as forward as it can go and its boot is still sticking out the back while it’s got ample wasted space it could move into, if it could.

I think it’s to protect women from men in common areas where women are most at risk

It’s for safety. It’s safest for women to be within clear view of the building while heading to her car at night. Men here are bejng willfully obtuse.

why are the parking blocks so pulled back

Depressing that this is a thing. I’d love to have a world where my fellow men didn’t make women feel so unsafe.

My mother would love this. She’s so stressed about parking. Doesn’t even touch her car door without a napkin in fear of it having been poisoned. Checks under her car too for creeps. She’s extremely paranoid even with me terrifying 6’4 dark beast of a father is with us.

Why are the spots so small you poke your rear end out into the road. Like could they have not moved those parking stops forward more?

If we had these in America some asshat in a lifted truck would park sideways across 3 of them and burnout their tires when leaving

If a guy parks there, does his car automatically turn into a Barbie dream camper?
FossaFurry on
If this was in America, 5 or more guys in trucks would park across from them and burnout tires or yell to the women just to be assholes. We can’t have nice things here.
It’s great that they are doing things for the safety of women, but as a man, this is a blind spot in my awareness and I am curious. How does this help?

It’s opposite in Norway. Women no longer have dedicated stalls in the toilets in more places. Everything is moving towards unisex. Even the Army Compulsory military service. If you are against it, it’s not a country for you

Where do the men park?

In Germany some parking lots reserve spaces closest to the elevators/exits for women so they don’t have to worry as much about walking through a parking lot.

There are no longer women only parking spots. They are now family friendly spots.
