she-shed
Woman's backyard sanctuary
A she-shed is a backyard structure—typically a small outbuilding or converted shed—that serves as a woman's private retreat or hobby space.
The term parallels "man cave" but suggests a separate outdoor building rather than a basement or garage: She turned the old garden shed into a she-shed for her painting.
Often features comfortable furnishings, craft supplies, or reading nooks.
