Poor thing sounds like she’s getting hysterical. Shy might faint. Someone better take the wheel while she gets herself settled down.

Can you change your identity whenever you enter or exit a car? That would solve the problem.
To: simpson96
She says her ability to drive didnt change when she transitioned from life as a man to life as a woman, but her insurance rates sure did. Insurance statistics seem to say that its a hormonal thing. That's exactly what's been changed.

Wonder how “she” feels about female only scholarships, government set asides, female small business preferred contracts and college quotas?

Car insurance companies are allowed to charge women a lot more for car insurance, simply because they are women. That's strange. Usually they charge young men more because they are in more accidents. Maybe women are catching up and drive crazier than young men.
It's not because you are a female.

To: simpson96
Dude, allow me to explain it to you.
When you buy auto insurance in Michigan you also buy medical insurance. We have "no-fault" insurance which means you are buying insurance that will cover you. It is stupid but there you are.
Medical insurance for women is more expensive because we have so much more that can go wrong with us. Just the way it is.
You wanted to be treated like a woman.... enjoy!

Ummmmm, men are almost universally charged more than women for insurance - this is BS.

Michigan’s insane car insurance prices are driven by the state requirement to cover unlimited medical expenses (And the legislatures unwillingness to address the problem).
Women are probably just a higher risk to get injured in a car accident.
To: simpson96
I always thought it was young men who got hosed on this, due to the driving records of their cohort.

You can read my post 15 if you want to know why.
Michigan has some really unique auto insurance laws.
