If you go to a business, you might see parking spots marked for people with disabilities or even for pregnant women, but have you ever seen a parking spot reserved specifically for women only?

In today’s story, one man noticed a sign like that in the parking lot at work, and he didn’t think it was a good idea.

Is he wrong for feeling that way?

Let’s read the whole story.

AITA for Objecting to “Female Employee Only” Parking Spaces at My Workplace?

So theres not too much to say, I guess I’m more curious in others opinions on this.

I am an approx 22.5 year old man, I recently snagged a really really good job.

I work as a corporate level administrator in the trucking industry. It’s been a pretty sweet gig so far and have no complaints as of yet (2 months in).

I would also like to preface the following with saying that I work with a very diverse staff of coworkers who are all as professional as they can be, rarely is it that someone cant pull their own weight.

He noticed something pink in the parking lot.

About a week ago I was walking through the parking lot to my car after the end of the day, and I was looking at the sunset through the chain link fence.

As my eyes darted around i happened to notice a pink metal plate bolted onto the fence, I thought to myself “woah, what’s that and how did i not notice it before?”

So i started reading it and I was immediately greeted with slight disappointment.

Basically, it read as follows “FEMALE EMPLOYEE PARKING SPACE ONLY!” with a large symbol in the middle of the sign which is also seen on women’s public bathrooms.

His fiance agreed with him.

Now, let me clarify I am not “Irate” or “fuming” about it, but I dont really buy into the whole chivalry, white knighting culture that the men of previous generations upheld fedora intensifies.

I even asked my fiance when I got home, just to get a female insight on it.

She said she thought it was stupid.

I guess I’m just coming from the territory of you can show that your a diverse company dedicated to equality, without making tedious or unimportant decisions like special parking. Just my two cents on it though.

This is weird to have a special females only parking spot.

Let’s see how Reddit reacted to this story.
