‘Cultural differences’ even in IKEA manuals


'Ikea manuals sexist, says Norwegian PM' in The Guardian International… only men are shown assembling furniture in its instruction booklets…

See funny article IKEA voor iedereen (sorry... it is in NL)

Is it just one indirect example about the influence of cultural differences on the way we do things? or is it really means some thing for the future???
