Preferring not to be assaulted is not a choice, the reality that men are more likely to commit these crimes is also not a choice, and the fact that the specific scenario of driver and lone passenger is much higher risk is also extremely relevant. It would be nice if Uber cared enough to try screening their employees more carefully, but offloading cost and responsibility onto someone else is more profitable so I wouldn’t count on it happening any time soon. You could possibly find a statistic to support being a bigot, but it would definitely be bullshit. International crime statistics and legal & sociological analysis directly contradicts racially biased US crime stats, whereas they instead fully confirm this specific gender bias in crime stats. One is true, the others are not. Allowing women to make choices that affect their safety based on verifiable facts is entirely reasonable, I don’t particularly care if men find it discriminatory.
