When women riders and drivers told us they wanted more control over how they ride and earn, we listened. That feedback led to Women Preferences, features designed to give women the choice to ride with other women. Since our first pilots last summer, we’ve heard just how much that choice matters—from feeling more comfortable in the back seat to more confident behind the wheel.
As a man I also want to select a female driver only. Seriously here in the Netherlands if you get a male driver good chance it’s some agro 20 year old high on NOx who also hates queers. I’m not even queer but I don’t want my money going to cunts like that.
Men being triggered by this is so cringe. Ew.
The sad reality is that women have to worry about being attacked… Not all men are creepy but men need to also hold the shitty men accountable too. The “would you rather be in the woods with a bear or a random man” question broke the internet because it was a strong argument and made a lot of men think about who even they feel comfortable with if alone in the woods… Most men said the bear, too… Idk many men who are deathly afraid of women and this isnt me saying that men havent been raped, abused, attacked. No human should have to experience ANY intimate violence. The risks are just less statistically. Its not weird to try and mitigate violence on any app…
Most of the comments here seem to be talking about the politics of the gender roles, but no one really seems to be mentioning that Uber should only be used as a very last resort. Call a Taxi, a friend, take public transit. Do not support the VC startup trash that doesn’t pay their
employees“contractors” living wage.Will women drivers be high in demand since the majority of drivers are men?
i see more complaints about misogyny in the comments here than actual misogyny. Which is good, I’m just wondering what I missed
give men the option to ride with men as well, and nobody will have an issue with this
I get it, but it’s sad that society have come to this.
These fucking comments. Anytime anything is done to make women safer men get up in arms and upset. “What about me?” cries the incel.
Driving for one of these companies is a hard wash anyways. I’m glad women can get out safe though. Personally I don’t care who picks me up, I can small talk with anyone and not be threatening. I have 4 daughters and a wife. I don’t need more women drama.

I get it, but it’s discrimination and someone is going to sue them for it.
So does this mean there is going to gender verification to go along with age verification?
Seems like something that would happen in this timeline.
preference, let me drive.
Male drivers probably want that too. Especially the drunk women.
