It's morally superior to be a victim of violent assault than it is to use violence to defend oneself. Please stack your clothing and belongings neatly- you will need them after your shower.

But we live in a time when those who are seen as having been treated less than equal in the past are now treated as special. they still are not "equal". They are "in need" of special treatment. In my Military Days, women were "equal". They didn't have to do as many push ups as me, even thou their body weighted less and they were younger. They didn't have to run as fast, thou they carried less weight and were younger. At last they DID have to do as many situps, but this took time to happen. Oh but they did get the same pay check. Bet your ass they got the same pay, while being held to a lesser standard. Male and female are seldom equal. Females are generaly smarter :lol: But equal? Not possible. When I come back, I want to be female---a gay female of course :lol: I agree with you.

But since they were at the back of the garage (farthest away from the entrance), women weren't necessarily using them--too far to walk. I started to park in one, without realizing they were women's spots (they weren't pink, but there was a sign posted saying the parking was reserved for women). I moved after realizing my error.

If you want to protect women, don't do it at the expense of gender equality. It's a dicriminatory practice. If you want to protect women, don't do it at the expense of gender equality.

They got the memo- but in Korea, that rule isn't for the people who actually parked there- it's for everyone else BUT the person who parked there. No, no, no!!!

Same story though...no one payed any attention whatsoever - open (pink) spaces were fair game for anyone looking for a parking space.
