Summary
Berlin lawmaker Antje Kapek of the Green Party proposed introducing women-only carriages on the city’s underground trains to enhance safety, inspired by a similar approach in Tokyo.
Kapek cited rising nighttime attacks on women and crowded evening conditions as reasons for the measure, which is still a proposal without legislative backing.
Her suggestion follows a recent rape case on the Berlin metro. The city’s BVG transport authority expressed doubts, arguing current safety measures, including 250 security staff and emergency contact points, are sufficient.

Right. So it’s very unfortunate that they made a proposal that would affect everyone, kinda like a ‘your choice, my consequences’ thing. Seems more like an enforcement and education thing.

Crazy that even saying a fact like this is downvoted cause people are so damn sensitive that you can’t speak ugly truths. I had a leftists call me racist and defend Saudi Arabia cause I said that place is a shit hole of slavery and evil who doesn’t even allow women to be free. It is a shit hole though, and I refuse to be politically correct towards slavers and misogynists

Alternately, your comments keep getting removed for overt racism, not a defense of rape culture.
Way to put your head in the sand mods…what was that whole, to be intolerant of the intolerant?..tell me why you’re defending an intolerant culture…
