Uber will let women drivers and riders request to avoid being paired with men starting next month.

Riders
- Request on-demand: When requesting a trip on demand, women riders will see an option called Women Drivers. If the wait time is longer than anticipated, they can always opt for another ride with a faster pickup.
- Reserve in advance: For more planning and certainty, women riders can use Reserve to pre-book a trip with women drivers.
- Set a preference: Riders can set a preference for a woman driver in their app settings. While it’s not guaranteed, turning on the Women preference increases your chances of being matched with a woman driver.
For Drivers
Women drivers can simply toggle on the “Women Rider Preference” in their app settings. If they want to receive trip requests from all riders, they can turn the preference off at any time.
Men do not face the same threats women do.
as a weak man cant agree
I understand that but that doesn't make it not discrimination. They are not mutually exclusive
Discrimination: the unjust or prejudicial treatment of different categories of people, especially on the grounds of ethnicity, age, sex, or disability.
Is it unjust when men don’t have to fear for their safety in the same way?
This is a false equivalence.
