Parking spots just for women? South Korea is trying it out in hopes of being more "female-friendly." 
  
 Government officials unveiled the wider, longer parking spaces in Seoul. 
  
 Each are painted pink and feature the outline of a woman in a miniskirt in the middle, according to NBC News. 
  
 Many are also closer to elevators. 
  
 It's not yet known if men will be fined for parking in the spots. 
  
 The initiative is part of a nearly $700 million push to make Seoul more "female-friendly" over the next four years. Other projects include 7,000 new women-only toilets and resurfacing some sidewalks with a squishy material to help with high heels, according to the Korea Times. ||||| Though it seems they will only promote further the stereotype that women are worse drivers, the so-called “she-spots” come as part of an estimated AUS$100 million (£55 million) programme to make the city more female-friendly, according to reports on the website motoring.com.au. 
  
 The scheme will also see pavements resurfaced with a “slightly spongy material” that makes them easier to walk on in high heels. 
  
 Around 7,000 new toilets just for women will also be installed across the city, and facilities like the new parking places will receive better lighting and be placed closer to shops. 
  
 Women-only parking spots have been installed in the past throughout the world – but typically only as a public safety measure. The spaces are usually designated near entrances or exits in poorly-lit car parks, and are not normally expanded for the benefit of female users. 
  
 Local media reports in Seoul said it was not clear whether men using the new places – which are further set apart with pink, skirt-wearing chalk figures – would face a fine. 
  
 The female parking zones in many places of the South Korean capital were reportedly created as part of a broader movement to boost safety in a 'Women Friendly Seoul' (EPA) Speaking to the Korea Times newspaper, Chon Eun-hee, the assistant mayor for women and family affairs, said: “It is like adding a female touch to a universal design and make things more comfortable for women.” 
  
 The Australian motoring website reported that the system was not too far removed from its own “family” spaces making parking easier and more accessible for parents with children. 
  
 It said female-only spaces had also been seen in the past in China, Kuwait, Malaysia, Indonesia, Austria, Italy and recently in Germany, where in 2012 a mayor made headlines for introducing the opposite measure – men-only spots. 
  
 Triberg’s Mayor, Gallus Strobel, told Der Spiegel that two spaces in the town would be too difficult for women because they required drivers to reverse diagonally between a pillar and a wall. 
  
 “I am happy, and it looks like we've hit a raw nerve in society,” he said. “It's been a great marketing gimmick. Women can come here and prove me wrong, and while they're at it they can see the town's attractions.” ||||| And now for the latest news from the world of staggeringly patronising things. 
  
 Yes. That stencilled drawing you're seeing is meant to be a woman - as in, specially wide and long women's parking spaces that are helpfully daubed in pink with female iconography, the latest thing in South Korea. 
  
 Thousands of the spaces, which are better-lit and closer to lifts and escalators, are being put in in Seoul. 
  
 An official said it was meant to "make things more comfortable" for women and was not a comment on their driving ability. 
  
 According to website motoring.com.au, the city's Assistant Mayor for Women and Family Affairs, Cho Eun-hee said: "It is like adding a female touch to a universal design and make things more comfortable for women." 
  
 This is not the first time gender segregated parking spaces have been implemented. 
  
 In 2012, the German town of Triberg triggered a sexism row when it put in 12 parking spaces reserved for women in a 220-space car park, where the rest were "men only". 
  
 Mayor Gallus Strobel said "humourless people" had criticised the move but the response was "overwhelmingly positive," The Guardian reported. |||||

This is apparently not a bad joke: South Korea is unveiling the female-only parking spot, according to reports at the Independent and NBC. The lowdown: Seoul is looking to become more "woman-friendly" via initiatives like the extra-wide, extra-long, bright pink parking spots. In case that's not obvious or patronizing enough for those of the female-and-driving persuasion, the spots will be marked with a pink-and-skirted female logo. On the (literally) bright side, the Huffington Post notes that they'll be well-lighted and closer to elevators. Oh, and for the record, this is not the first time this has happened.
