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.

    The same way we trust that it's really painful for men to get kicked in the junk without having to experience it ourselves.

    If I knew how to make everyone empathetic we wouldn't even need to be discussing this in the first place. What a vapid question.

    The question of how we make empathy universal isn't the vapid question. Yours that I was responding to was.

    Either way, if women can manage the hit in the balls empathy, surely you can figure this out, too, without a step-by-step pictorial diagram and someone to hold your hand.

    You answered your own question. The task for men is to trust women when they describe their experiences, even if it’s completely invisible and alien to their own experiences. Reading detailed firsthand accounts is a good way to build understanding.
