Signs - The man chair

When my parents visited us in Perth in December 2016 I drove them down to the southwest area of Denmark and Albany to show them that wonderful countryside part of Western Australia.
On a walk around Denmark we came across this chair outside the Karrisma Gallery and Gifts shop and we all  had a good laugh. 
Men can sit and read a magazine or newspaper while their wives shop in peace. 
They probably need more chairs, but it's a very clever idea don't you think?

For more interesting signs check Lesley's blog at Signs2.

  1. Splendid to take care of "the men" with their own chair; keeps them in a better mood. Addition of magazines and newspapers also helps them relax.

    1. It was the first time I came across this here in Australia. It looks like there are a lot of clever shop owners around :)

  3. What an amazing idea! Some of the shops here in the shopping centers need something like that. It would put a smile on the face of the guys waiting outside at Primark, for instance :-)

  8. There is large place here that has many seconds stores within. There are a good number of benches and seating spread around and bored men can be seen taking advantage of them all over the place.

  11. That IS a great idea and yes, they do need more chairs :-)
    There´s also a Simpsons-episode with men´s chairs - it must be a common problem (also not enough chairs there ;-)...).

    1. Can't remember that episode, but I agree that if they have more than one lady shopping they will need more than 1 chair, lol.

  14. Dearest Sami,
    That is a very clever idea as men appreciate that most of the time.
