There are many ways to do it, and as mature adults (pause for laughter) we should discuss them, like civilized ladies and menfolk. There is nothing to be ashamed of; it's a natural process, part of everyday life, and talking about should be done openly, without shame.
What we're talking about is...parking the car. As in, I see discussions on the sociable media in which people say they can't believe someone backed into a parking spot in the parking garage, and how horrible that is.
I grew up, so to speak, across from a fire house, and you will never see a fire engine parked nose-in in the station, because when they have to go somewhere, they don't want to take time backing out.
Either way, when you park, you're going to have to back up. Why not get it done first? Even with the advent of the back-up camera in vehicles, which allows you to see behind you, it can take forever to make sure no one is coming. So do the backing up part, and then go to work or shopping or to see a friend, knowing that you have smooth sailing when you leave?
It's like eating the lima beans at the start of the meal, so you can get to the good stuff.
See you in the garage!
