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.
I mean when you sign up to being a driver you have to give out your information so that they can verify you are qualified so they already have that covered
Well that too but I was thinking of the riders. I’m assuming only women can request women drivers.
Or is this just a shit to uber being all women drivers?
Women want women driver because of safety. Men want women drivers because men.
Asking “what gender do you identify as?” isn’t tyranny and does not involve uploading your ID. Pretty much most services I know ask “what is your gender?”
Plus, I’ve never used a ride share before but if you say as a client “I identify as a woman”, and a female driver shows up to pickup another ‘female’ client and it’s obviously a group of dudes, couldn’t she flag them as false information?
Also not trying to trans shame, I’m literally married to a trans person.
It’s posible that you would just have to check a box but I guess we’ll see, I hope that’s true bcs privacy but I can see why they would go a step beyond
