The manual caused a wave of indignation among the organizations protecting the rights of women.
In Argentina, a new scandal erupted associated with the content of the brochures issued for the purchase of machinery.
In the books the rules of use of one of the new FIAT models called “How to have fun from the car?” contained information on how to behave if together with the driver in the car was a woman.
In particular, as The Guardian reports, in the section “co-pilot” contained the following words: “If a woman wearing too short a skirt, we recommend you to replant her in the back seat to keep concentration on the road.” Also, if the skirt is long enough, but you have “wandering hands”, let him go back,” was the other advice in the instructions. In addition, the text contained information that the “co-pilot” should at least be beautiful legs.
This manual has caused outrage among rights organizations of women, who called such jokes are “outdated” and “sexist”. In turn, the representative of FIAT in Argentina has already apologized to all women, noting that the authors of the booklet do not wish to offend women.
These brochures will be withdrawn. What model FIAT was dedicated to the newspaper, is not reported.
