Shanghai is becoming a little more comfortable these days, especially for the men. 

The Paper recently released photos of a 'husband's rest room' in Global Harbor Mall for men to hang out in while their wives are busy shopping.

This isn't the first time a specially designated men's zone has popped up in a Shanghai mall. Last year, a mall in Minhang opened up a 'husband nursery' for men who weren't so keen on shopping 'til they drop.
