Lyft already been doing this for years..
Man here, it is awesome that it is available, it sucks that that it is needed.
Bojack Horseman predicted (?) this almost a full decade ago in Season 3 (July 2016l)
Right, how did that turn out
One day, I want to live in a world where this wouldn't need to happen
Seems sexist and discriminatory.
When do we get the 'whites only' option for people who don't feel safe around people of color?
Are you upset she chose the bear?
I'm not upset, but this policy is sexist and discriminatory.
Not sexist, but sure discriminatory, but not in a bad way.
Who is it discriminating against?
Its discriminating who is allowed to drive certain customers around, if they so choose, because men are statistically more violent towards women. No matter how you want to paint it, that is the case. If youre so gung ho about women not wanting to feel safe, that's entirely on you.
Its discriminating who is allowed to drive certain customers around
Based on what?
Their customers feelings of safety
Wrong. It's based on sex.
I'll take your willful ignorance as admittance of defeat. Kinda pathetic how ashamed you are of your own argument.
Wrong. The discrimination is based on their customers feeling of safety. Kinda pathetic how ashamed you are of women wanting to feel safe.
Also I did agree its sexist, but your reading comprehension needs work.
your reading comprehension needs work.
But you're the one who thinks discrimination based on sex isn't discrimination based on sex.
Whoa! OK we're now just gonna make up stuff that the other person said? I didn't realize that we could just put words in each other's mouths like that. Fucking game changer bud.
Stay in school, son.
Not whatever school you went to, that's for sure. I'm glad my education didn't fail me, like it did you.
Keep believing that.
Ew
Finally getting with the program too, are we?
