But they are supportive of systems where men are treated as inferior persons. Systems like SheRides.
You had required documentation regarding sex based segregation while you mentioning specifically the Bible. I provided you with documentation confirming sex segregation addressing social interactions and that from Orthodox Judaism. Are you or not going to acknowledged that such sex segregation restricting mixed gender social interactions is a FACT when it comes to conservative Islam and Orthodox Judaism? And that since you showed skepticism to Keith's remarks. I am not going to let you evade what has been documented by me in response to your dismissive response to Keith's remarks. Clear enough?
Since "Muslim" was also included as part of the category of women either as customers or drivers, you need to know that "radical feminists" are usually not supporters of the tenants of Islam which deprive members of the female gender from a variety of rights male members benefit of.
But they are supportive of tenets of SheRides that deprive males of ride services and employment opportunities through their company.
How does anyone's recognition that the SheRides company is accommodating SPECIFIC women with a SPECIFIC religious profile to eliminate their discomfort in social interactions with stranger males, supposed to signify being supportive of the ultra conservative branches of 2 religions notoriously known for treating females as inferior human beings?
Is my recognition of the ACTUAL motivation based on an accommodation ( as I specifically detailed it above) to be justifiably interpreted as meaning that I support the tenets of ultra conservative Judaism and Islam? Be very careful as to which intentions you will attribute to my recognition.
To add, that most people are also aware that whether it be the Torah or Q'ran, they were formulated by males and in the context of a patriarchal culture. Meaning (just in case the implication escapes you) that males are the authors and dictators of sex segregation in both Islam and Orthodox Judaism. Not "radical feminists" living in 2014 USA. Clear enough?
Actually several Biblical books are thought to have been written by women.
Are you prepared to defend your claim in the Religious Discussion Forum? You'd better be especially the bit about involving the Bible when I made a clear reference of Qu'ran. Let me forewarn you that we do have a couple of scholars who frequent our GRD Forum. I will start a thread in GRD in the near future bringing up your claim and you'd better be prepared to quote and document your sources. Especially when applied to Qu'ran.
Also women are often first to enforce many of the supposedly patriarchal rules of their religions.
And religious women subjected to long term and from a generation to generation indoctrination which was initiated by MALES is supposed to be including "radical feminists" who live in 2014 USA? Are you kidding me?????
But lastly, even if radical feminists behind SheRides don't agree with orthodox Islam or Judaism they still love discriminating against men, and any excuse will do.
You are (once more) SPECULATING. You have been observed by multiple members as polarizing your outcries of sexism (at the drop of a hat) declaring it motivated by hatred of men. As if the customers and drivers of SheRides are looking for an accommodation of their religious beliefs based on "hating men". They represent a demand within the market of supply and demand which requires an accommodation based on religious beliefs/practices. The accommodation being about the discomfort they would experience if there were no alternative for them but have to have social interactions with stranger males. As a result a business is created for the purpose of supplying that specific market driven demand.
Do you *think* that as a female I would engage in outcries of sexism motivated by hatred against women when barber shops and designated as barber shops respond to the specific demand of a male clientele which excludes female clientele? Do I pull a drama while speculating that barber shop owners exclude a female clientele because they hate women?
Now had your OP been about your outrage to special accommodations being made based on religious identity, I am certain you would have an actively contributing audience to your outrage in this thread.
My OP is an outrage against overt and illegal discrimination against male drivers and riders by the radfem SheRides app.
Well, it appears your outrage is misplaced and not as justified as you believe it to be.
Let alone you producing such absurd replies mentioning the alleged female authorship of"some books" in the Bible while I had mentioned Qur'an. And by the way, any time you discuss Judaism, be aware that the actual terms used by adepts of Judaism regarding their sacred scriptures are not "The Bible" but the Torah and the Talmud. When referring to Muslims, the actual reference is to Koran or Quran or Qur'an. Not "the Bible". Somehow you seem to be stuck on "the Bible" as if having read it made you an expert on the variety of practices in Judaism and in Islam. (since you used the argumentation earlier of having read The Bible...blablabla...).
Further, a point you do NOT even have, is that the existence of a private business responding to a market driven demand accommodating a SPECIFIC group, in this specific case conservative branches of Judaism and Islam female members, results in males throughout N.Y city to be able to get a cab or get employment with a cab company. I sincerely doubt that there are substantial numbers of N.Y city males residents who are pulling a drama queen over the existence of SheRides claiming that it deprives them of finding a cab/taxi or they cannot find employment as a cab driver throughout the city.
Such "drama queening" would echo the outcries of folks who were outraged at a fast food chain in the UK and Ireland accommodating a market driven demand of serving only Kosher Food in some of their facilities. When the number of those said facilities was so low compared to the existing number of that fast food chain facilities and could not be perceived as depriving non Kosher eating customers from access to an abundance of non Kosher foods facilities.
Again, a solid topic of discussion regarding the existence of the business known as SheRide would have been whether accommodations for religious persons with a specific religious identity, accommodations made by a private business are detrimental to the groups (in this case gender based) who are not given access to the said business for the very reason that they are not the parties in need of such religious practices based accommodations. In this specific case and again and now duly documented (though you dismissed my rebuke to your reply to Keith) an accommodation designed to meet the needs of religious persons falling under the specific group of religious females abiding to to the practice of gender segregation applied to ALL aspects of their social interactions with stranger males. Practice which originated with the male DOMINATED authorship of a divide between genders demonstrated throughout the specific documents known as Qur'an (Koran) and The Torah/Talmud.
Instead your Op is one more ranting outcry further escorted with mentions of radical feminism and hatred against men.
