As a man, I want to EXCLUDE all women as potential clients. This is acceptable to articulate given the context, no?
Comment on Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US
elvis_depresley@sh.itjust.works 15 hours agothis argument can be applied to other situations.
Uber for whites only: “This is a good thing if you ask most white racists”
The gas chambers: “This is a good thing if you ask most Nazis”
Just to be clear, I disagree with both the above situations, I just think it’s not a great argument.
Just to be clear 2: I also sympathise with women who feel uncomfortable being driven by a man.
However, it is discrimination, by definition.

Sure. My understanding is that as a driver you can reject certain clients. You don’t like the part of town, or their name or the location they want to be taken to. This right already exists.

this place never fails with its reddit-isms and lack of nuance. If you want data, look at SA data and see the demographics of the victims vs the demographics of the perpetrators. This is a tool to give peace of mind and potentially lower SA on ubers.

People are evil, and I am for any isolation, and yes, segregation, as it is simply for the best when dealing with humans. I don’t think you need better proof than the Epstein Files, Panama papers, and what a whole ass world of supposedly mostly good people are complacent in.

No this is totally about race.
Very few Uber drivers are caucasian.
