What makes it different?
I'd certainly hope so
Sexism could also be considered a mental illness in the same vein?
Personally I want all of my drivers to be under 6'2" because everyone who has ever dunked on me at basketball has been around that height or taller. /Sarcasm
I guess that does make sense as long as you allow men to also choose female only drivers in the same vein. Similar to how hooters is allowed to have a female only waitstaff. I concede it is a valuable space for a peace of mind if you want that option. It is projecting though to want to segregate from entirely a whole class of society, but if that works best for the person I'm supportive.
