    Exclamation UK - Women-only train carriages could offer a 'safe space' on public transport

    Women-only train carriages could offer a 'safe space' on public transport, Labour politician says

    Do women need their own carriages on public transport?

    Telegraph Reporters

    23 AUGUST 2017 • 12:57AM

    Women-only train carriages should be considered to combat increasing sexual violence on public transport, a Labour frontbencher has said.

    Shadow fire minister Chris Williamson said creating separate travelling arrangements for female passengers might offer "a safe space" for women as sexual offences on trains have more than doubled in the past five years.

    It follows a 17-year-old girl being sexually assaulted twice, by two different men on a train journey between Newquay and Plymouth as she made her way home from the Boardmasters festival on August 12.

    Some 1,448 offences were reported in 2016/17, compared with 650 incidents in 2012/2013, British Transport Police figures show.

    The idea was initially suggested by Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn during his 2015 leadership bid, but the plans were dropped after attracting criticism, including from prominent women Labour MPs such as Yvette Cooper and Liz Kendall.

    I like this idea.

    I think "people of color" should have their own facilities as well, to protect them against white micro-aggressions.

    They are not as crazy as you think.

    It's designed to have us forever chasing our tails, in a futile and pointless effort to comply with that which cannot be complied with.

    Just a little violence to get some public transportation happening in the first place. Whaddayaknow.

    To be fair to me, I have heard you say things that would make me believe that the post in question wasn't satire, irony or any other kind of humor. But are you sure life wouldn't be better if you lived with your own kind? I mean you have told me how your family have suffered and have been insulted by people of colour.

    You know, you can lie to me all you want, I don't care but I really hope you are not lying to yourself.

    Another slippery slope fallacy. Take the hospital for example, the Labour and delivery is segregated from the rest of the hospital. The patient there have an extra layer of security(need wrist bands to come in and locked doors), the unit has bigger room, better nurse to patient ratio, the nurse wear a different uniform and you as a floor nurse will never be floated to L&D for any reason. They do this explicitly to protect them.

    They are not made prisoners and other patient population punished for it. I don't necessarily support this move but I am under no illusion that this move would lead to anything that archaic.

    Oh, by all means, in this instance rest well assured I was simply pointing out the irony and hypocrisy of the left, by using satire.

    Thank you for your concern.

    Was subjected to in flight "entertainment" yesterday that amounted to some B list Jerry Springer type giving lie detector tests to willing ratings victims.

    Couple "2" was a typical pair of lesbians, one dumpy house-frau looking woman paired with the "man" lesbian, complete with buzzcut and tattoos.

    They beat the crap out each other worse than all the others, with the studio mob cheering them on.

    From wiki:

    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)'s 2010 National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey reports on the lifetime prevalence of rape, physical violence or stalking by an intimate partner, focusing for the first time on victimization by sexual orientation. It finds a victimization prevalence of 43.8 percent for lesbians, making it the second most affected group after bisexual women (61.1 percent), ahead of bisexual men (37.3 percent), heterosexual women (35 percent), heterosexual men (29 percent) and homosexual men (26 percent).[8]

    So it appears that the only ones in the alphabet community not beating the snot out each other are the "G"s.
