Because when designing a city, teenage girls are who you should go to for advice.
I assume is to object to having fields for sports, since guys play a lot of sports, but nothing for girls to do. Hence that useless stage for playing pretend.
What is interesting is that in the same article it says that the differences are only societal yet we need a female perspective. If the differences between interests are poorly societal then we do not need different perspectives since it means everyone will act the same way as long as we remove societal pressure. Girls will play as much sports as guys and guys will want to nurture as much as women do, they've been ramming this in our heads for the last 2 decades so where is the societal pressure keeping girls from sports?
This, "it's a construct that men and women are different, and thus we have to construct an entirely new reality and language and society to allow women to exist than the one we had in 2003."
