Date: July 23rd, 2025 12:43 PM Author: Turquoise coldplay fan im sure its better than it used to be but it can never be as good as an employee. a lot of illegals use other peoples accounts. no one at uber is putting eyes on the person let alone ensuring they're the one doing a job. it's just automated silicon valley shit and can be spoofed as easily as creating a fake facebook account.

Date: July 23rd, 2025 12:33 PM Author: flesh cracking locus Interesting. As I recall, there was a startup that was an Uber clone that only allowed female drivers and passengers. It ended up getting shut down because some Hawaii judge said that was discriminatory. I wonder if Uber gets away with it because it allows men on its platform. It still makes me think that there is a lawsuit here if some dude was late to some important event because the only drivers in the area were women who didn't want male passengers.

Date: July 23rd, 2025 12:38 PM Author: disrespectful kitty it works the opposite way: female passengers can opt for female drivers
the bigger question is how this is fair to male drivers trying to earn a living and whether it’s illegally discriminatory |

Date: July 23rd, 2025 5:15 PM Author: flesh cracking locus I didn't think about that angle as well, but given that male drivers currently earn significantly more than female drivers, I think that case is harder to argue. But it will be interesting. My understanding is that the reason that male drivers earn more is because the best time to drive for Uber is when the bars close, and female drivers don't want to let a bunch of drunk randos into their cars. If female drivers suddenly start earning significantly more than their male counterparts once this change goes into effect, the male drivers might have a case.

Date: July 24th, 2025 1:48 PM Author: flesh cracking locus I was just trying to figure out who would have standing to sue Uber, dumbass. I could more easily imagine a scenario where a male passenger suffers damages because a female driver refuses to pick him up. Given that male drivers already earn significantly more on Uber, it would be hard to show that a male driver suffered damages because a few female passengers didn't want him to pick them up.

Date: July 23rd, 2025 12:53 PM Author: trip hall serious question: what's the legal difference between this and a "white driver" or "american driver" option? also, would it help them to allow a preference for every possible protected category? that is to say, is there a legal distinction between a company itself discriminating and a company offering its customers the option to discriminate? like a restaurant with optional segregated dining rooms.

Date: July 23rd, 2025 5:17 PM Author: flesh cracking locus I'm not a constitutional lawyer, but my understanding is that gender-based laws get intermediate scrutiny rather than strict scrutiny for laws based on race. And when you consider the fact that female Uber drivers earn significantly less than male drivers and most of that is explained by the fact that they are scared to let random drunk guys into their cars when the bars close, I think there is a good chance that this type of policy would survive intermediate scrutiny.

Date: July 23rd, 2025 1:39 PM Author: Heady blathering multi-billionaire becky This is a good idea. In addition to women being able to request a woman driver, you should be able to filter for drivers with ‘tags’ for interests similar to your own so that the chit chat with your driver is less awkward. For example, you could filter for “sailing”, “lacrosse”, and “Magic: The Gathering” and then you’d know that whoever your Uber driver is, you’ll be comfortable with them because you have shared interests to talk about.
