    Im going to say this as nicely as possible, comparing this to white only toilets is not cool… its a little racist. Using poc’s actual historical oppression like a prop to express your distaste for safe spaces for women and nb people is just not a great vibe.

      I have no distaste for making safe spaces for woman and non-binary. What I have is distaste for deliberately making safe spaces only for woman and non-binary, where there is no cost making it for everyone.

      Lyft could do a switch saying “match my gender”, but they went making basically “match anything other than man” just diffrently phrased. And this is sexists, really disgusting and may look excluding for many.

        • Why this safery feature is only for woman when it can be for anyone in need?
        • Look, he don’t want woman to be safe, he… [continue with attacks on his “manhood”]

        Really, if I am the problem here, why am I the one not using ad hominem. I have nothing against safety features for woman and I will fight for them. I just want those 10% of sexual abuse victims who are man to feel safe too and stop pretending they don’t exists, that’s all.
