Seems sexist and discriminatory.

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.

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.

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.

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.
