I notice that, usually, whomever is driving the driver checks their looks
in the rearview
center mirror.    While, whomever, is sitting in the passenger seat can use
the vanity
for whatever they want....  makeup.... hair grooming....digital exploration
of the nose...

Haven't noticed anything sexist about it even though it was probably was
the original
intent.
