Uber is rolling out a new feature in the United States that will let women drivers and riders choose to avoid being paired with men. The ride-sharing company confirmed that starting next month, it will launch its “Women Preferences” features across the country. Women riders will be able to request drivers with the same gender identity, and women drivers will be able to do the same for riders.
The announcement has sparked mixed reactions on social media, with some users questioning the legality of the new policy. The feature is designed to improve comfort and safety for women on the platform by giving them more choice and flexibility when they use Uber. The company says the goal is to provide women with more confidence during their rides.
