Female-only parking spots draw controversy

HANGZHOU - Emblazoned with a black high-heel shoe on a pink background, extra-wide parking spaces for women have sparked debate about sexism on social media.

The parking spots at the Jiande and Tonglu highway service areas in Zhejiang province are 1.5 times the size of normal spaces, with the color and icon indicating "women only".

"It's significantly larger, and I find it a very considerate design," said Yang Xin, a female driver who recently got her driver's license.
