Lyft is introducing a new feature that let’s women and non-binary riders choose a preference to match with drivers of the same gender.

The ride-hailing company said it was a “highly requested feature” in a blog post Tuesday, saying the new feature allows women and non-binary people to “feel that much more confident” in using Lyft and also hopefully encourage more women to sign up to be drivers to access its “flexible earning opportunities.”

The service, called “Women+ Connect,” is rolling out in the coming months. Riders can turn on the option in the Lyft app, however the company warns that it’s not a guarantee that they’ll be matched with a women or non-binary person if one of those people aren’t nearby. Both the riders and drivers will need to opt-in to the feature for it work and riders must chose a gender for it to work.

Lyft bowing to the woke mob

So if I declare I’m non binary I can get a chick to drive me every time?

Define Woman…..

Drivers should also be able to decide not to pick up deviants.

A “highly requested feature”. Meaning one or two perverts whined and complained at the expense of everyone else who doesn’t care.

I drove Uber in the past. You can cancel the ride if you feel uncomfortable by the passenger’s name

Sounds like “discrimination “ to me…

How dare they!!

[jpp113]

Wait until a biological woman requests a Lyft with a Tranny and he assaults her with his tallywhacker, and is then told she's a bigot after she reports it.

I want a dog to pick me up

I don’t trust people

[econjack]

More woke BS...Still, good to know so I can put them on my Don't Use list.

Does the driver have the option to not pick up sexually confused, mentally ill morons?

[Persevero]

Is this not sexual discrimination? Illegal?

[gundog]

How many gender options are offered?

[Political Junkie Too]

Based on this, can a bakery declare that they will only serve non-binary and women customers?

Can a straight male walk into such a business and demand that he be served?

There is nothing illegal or discriminatory anymore if it serves the ‘woke’ agenda.

[Waverunner]

So are you saying your an L trapped in a binary body.

[cableguymn]

Can a bakery say no to a message someone wants on a cake due to religious reasons? Seems not

A few years ago I wouldn’t have thought that insanity was contagious. But things have changed, and I see that insanity is spreading like wildfire.

People with sane minds are canceled, suppressed, fired and punished.

What if someone wants to request a STRAIGHT person who is not operating under a delusion? Will Lyft grant that request? Or report you to the thought police?
