| 0 | 'Women only' train coach.Thank you for the correction - as someone who has been groped by a woman, on a Japanese train, during rush hour, I wholeheartedly agree. Absolutely agree with you - unfortunately (while I don't know concrete information), I'm not sure if it's possible due to infrastructural and monetary limitations.

| 4 | 'Women only' train coach.Brother bear you are off the mark. About 50% of women over 20 and 70% of women under 20 have reported being groped on Japanese public transport; of that, only 50% of those incidents get reported. (Horii and Burgess 2012). That’s why they use these things as Band-Aid solutions to get women away from possible assailants. It’s not like women are getting extra rights by having 1/2 carriages of a 15 carriage train - it’s about making sure people feel and are safe as opposed to some ‘misandrist moveme… | /r/MensRights | 16/09/23 10:46 PM |
