The men of Washington, D.C. have been put on notice by Washington Post reporter Seung Min Kim. They are not to condescendingly coach a woman who is trying to parallel park — “We do not need your help.”
Men of DC: Do not pull over next to a woman who is trying to parallel park and then condescendingly coach her how to do it. We do not need your help.

A woman who is trying to parallel park or a woman who is parallel parking?
Sounds like maybe you did 😆

If you didn't need help, you wouldn't have been trying to do it. You would have just done it.

Strong disagree here. I'll buy anyone who helps my wife not get another damage claim a drink.

Good tweet but I have some thoughts on how to improve it. Will DM you.

If, however, anyone sees me trying to parallel park and wants to come shout out remaining distance before I hit the Jaguar behind him, I'm totally good with that.
Thanking everyone in advance.

I'm all good if someone wants to help me. Men of anywhere. Women of anywhere. All genders of anywhere. I have no shame when it comes to parallel parking. Please help me without me needing to beg for help.

“Manparking” is a thing now?

The owners of the cars you’re trying to fit between would beg to differ.

Men of anywhere: if you see me attempting to parallel park please offer to do it for me.

Odd that in the 12 seconds it takes me to parallel park no one ever has the opportunity to 'coach' me

Imagine being so bad at parallel parking that you attract the attention of a good samaritan.

As somebody who is extremely spacially challenged I would more than welcome men or women of the world assisting me in that. 🤷♀️

Never offer to help. Just stand there and laugh.

@WomenPostingLs How bad are you at driving that this happened?
— Cozy Gamer Gimp (@GrumpyCatterman) October 9, 2021
Funny that. I was minding my own business and a lady shouted out to me because she had difficulty parking and needed assistance. She was unable to reverse park in a very tight space so I assisted her. She thanked me afterwards. Should I have ignored her then and just left?
— Thunder ⚡ (@THInterloper) October 9, 2021
A lot of people are extending this to men of the world and are sincerely sorry this happened to her if it did indeed happen.
Reporters of DC: don't interview politicians who hold our lives and futures in their hands like you are simply trolling for click bait headlines.
