It's been a red-letter week for China. First a ridiculously racist ad was circulated and now they've turned to sexism.

Learn more about this disastrous ad and the company's "apology."

Photos have started blowing up on social media of female-only parking spots that are 50% wider than non-gendered spots.

The clear gender discrimination has been said to "better serve" females rather than imply they are less skilled than male drivers. Okay, sure.

Female-only spots are not new or limited to this one parking lot, they can be found in many of China's provinces.

Plenty of people on social media are outraged by the ridiculous measure

And then of course there are the assholes (read: men) who think it's a great idea

Other female-only parking areas are found in countries around the world including Australia and Germany, though those areas emphasize safety when returning to their car at night rather than actual driving skills.
