Bunch of women driving cabs around New York City? What could go wrong?

I'm sure women will end up finding something to complain about with this service.

This is blatantly unconstitutional.
Just substitute "White people" where it says, "women" and "Black people" where it says, "men".
Gender =/= race. There are female-only gyms, male-only country clubs, etc.
Using your logic, gender-segregated bathrooms should be unconstitutional.

I understand where you are coming from but I can see this scenario.
A man is standing on the side of the road in the pouring rain trying to hail a cab and one of these "women only" taxis drives by. The female driver says to herself, "Hell, I don't have to stop and pick him up because he's a man".

Maybe they are just afraid to ride in a cab with you?
But I looked into the company a bit more. It isn't a specific "company" per se, but instead a service. A lot of women call up cab companies and request a female driver for safety reasons. This app will farm out most requests to existing cab companies that have women drivers, who will then put on a pink scarf to identify themselves as from the service, even though it might be a "Yellow Cab" or "Diamond Cab" which really picks her up. I believe they are hiring drivers as well, but it appears that is only to pick up the slack.

This thread isn't dealing with a hypothetical situation.
It's dealing with a real situation.

We do believe in the constitution and reading.
This is not a drive around looking for riders service. If they were you would be correct. That would be blatant discrimination.
Would you be against a service exclusively for seniors that they could call and use to take them shopping or to the doctor?

It's still gender discrimination.
Woman who feel "uncomfortable" getting in a cab that is driven by a man are being unreasonable and irrational.
If a White person feels "uncomfortable" getting in a cab driven by a Black person should we allow companies to have "white only" cabs that are driven by only White people?

Another hypothetical situation.
This thread is about a real situation.
However, is the "seniors only" cab only allowing seniors to be the cab driver because the senior using the cab doesn't feel "comfortable" being around young people?
