Many people do not know this but up until the late 1970s it was mandatory for a pregnant woman in an operating title of the NYCT, to be put on unpaid leave in her 7th month of pregnancy. (in the old Brown rule book) Woman's groups fought such laws and today a pregnant woman can operate her train or drive her bus until her water breaks or she goes into labor. Parking spaces for pregnant women more or less contradict that fight that promoted the idea that pregnancy is not an illness but a natural state. That said, I have no issues with them - its just contradictory to the woman's movement. |
