fractional slacker Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 As ancaps, we endorse and support freedom of association. Not holding my breath for a male only version, but I am sure Muslims would go for it. The question is will feminists be for or against gender based car services? http://time.com/money/3305393/new-taxi-service-is-like-uber-but-for-women-only/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lars Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Female oppression indeed. Of course Feminists will have no problem with this.As far as Muslims are concerned... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh F Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 They opened a female friendly auto-repair shop here in Uruguay recently. You can get your hair done while you wait for your car (no joke). I don't mind, I think this is an excellent way market forces can combat threatening situations for women. Guns and mace are pretty good too. As for a gov run feminist bus, lets be honest.... it would be like jim crow but men are the black people. Its not that its a bus for women, since women would be able to use any bus... it would just be a bus forbidden to men. Probably would have wifi and all sorts of cool shit.

Lars Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 I heard that all female bathrooms include a mini-bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shirgall Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 I heard that all female bathrooms include a mini-bar. I've always joked about the much larger space, the pink couch, and foot massagers. Well, that and people actually talk to one another in there, but only about boys.

PGP Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Interesting final few lines: "Mateo told the Times she wished there were women-only taxis available when her children were young and needed to be ferried around the city to various activities" Struck me as odd to entrust care of young children to a stranger. Secondly, it seems implied that stranger women would be safer to entrust children to than stranger men. Thirdly, I have no idea what the law is in this locality but is it not discrimination in terms of both customers and employees? I understand fully that an ancap would be for free association and interaction but this is a financial transaction with employment implications that fall under existing laws. Perhaps the branding and business model allows circumvention of such legalities? I would have no issue with this at all if it was the case that men could have exclusively male organisations aswell, but from notional experience over the years male-only organisations have been largely forced into admitting women.
