Is "Women only" similar to "White only"?

Women's parking spaces are specially designated and identified parking spaces in parking garages and parking lots to be used by women. They are usually near exits to increase the safety of women, to facilitate the act of parking, or to facilitate walking to shopping or employment destinations.

The areas for female passengers only are regularly checked by workers.....We are implementing a request made by our customers," the firm said in a statement to NBC News on Monday, adding that the compartments "are primarily designed for women who are travelling alone."


Isn't this similar to the "mixing with savages" segregation of years past? Are these "safety" designations acceptable?

lol, I had a similar idea for a thread.
Ye, women getting seperate services is the same as segregation and it makes no sense if they want full equality.

(I feel like Fr33 sounding anti-women and all, lol)

So are women only spots wider and lined with cushions? I'd be ok with that.

Can you imagine gender segregated parking lots? The memes it would generate alone would be worth it. Nice, tidy, organized and evenly parked cars in the men's lot vs...

Except for the jackasses that think their $30K car needs two spaces to protect it.

I'm fine with people that do that, as long as they park in the spots the furthest from the doors. If they park in prime spots doing that, then they deserve the Karma that follows.

That Jeep definitely parked wrong. He allowed the corvette to get out, gotta block him in.

Since gender is something that you can choose now, this really shouldnt be an issue. Once we decide race is chosen as well, we can return to segregation. Then all the people that want to be one thing can be in one group, and all the people that want to be some other thing can be in another, and everyone can be happy

Women are crazy, but it's our duty to protect them.

On a similar note, I have never understood how "female only" gyms are legal.

I've seen "expectant mother" parking spaces. But I've never seen a space set aside just for women in general. Seems to me that if women think they can serve in combat arms in the military just like men then they don't need a special parking space.
