Iran makes special cars for women

Features include:

  • Automatic transmission (naturally).
  • Parking aids (I’m not quite sure what this could be.  Have they hidden a small boy in the trunk to pop out during tough parallel parking moments?  Complete with signaling flags?).
  • A jack for changing tires without getting dirty (They make jacks like this?  If so, why limit them to the Iranians.  Hook a girl up, yo!)
  • “Other features are proposed to make it easier for women when they are doing the family shopping or taking their children to school.” (Apparently it comes fully equipped with a nanny.)
  • The car will come in a range of feminine colors and interior desinges.  (Because the world really needs more Mary Kay cars on the road.)

The BBC’s Jon Leyne quips in his article about the new car design, “If that suggests a degree of sexist stereotyping in Iranian society, it is, just possibly, true”.

Yes, possibly.
