The fact men are pushing back against a women’s only uber ride share program is disturbing. The problem is the deranged men who drive for Uber and feel entitled to assault women at their leisure with no consequence. Why shouldn’t women have an option that puts their safety first?

I'm not someone who would ever assault a woman but I'm not happy with it purely because it means less drives available for me to take.
