In Brazil, there's parking spaces for pregnants, disabled/handicapped people and elders. Also, there's prioritary seats for obese, pregnant, elders and disabled people.

Ah yeah, that makes more sense and is what I'm used to as well. Spaces exclusively for women just for being women however sounded pretty stupid and discriminatory though. Makes sense for pregnant women however.

Don't think obese people deserve them though.

I didn't understand the "parking space just for women" thing, but the way you answered made me thought if there were prioritary and exclusive spaces/seats at all in other countries.

Agreed with the obese people thing. It's a mess: if we take just Body Mass Index into account, then I'm obese (with 5'9" and 231 pounds), but I'm a totally healthy person, that can fit in the regular seats and no one that knows me would say I'm obese if you ask, they'd just say I'm fat. Could I use a prioritary seat? Should I? In any case, I just use the reason and don't use it even when it's available.
