It all comes down to not being ignorant and not measuring people by their genitalia. Also, pronouns are really important. |

Personally I do not find OP completely sexist. From what I understand he is going off of general facts and the way we, men, view women around the world.
It is well known that women are not the best drivers, they tend to drive slow and safe or fast and dumb. No, I am not talking about all women, Danica Patrick is an exception :p Then he also was probably thinking that she is not in her young age and so if she turns all the assists off by accident, she might screw up, even though it would be difficult. As to support why men are better drivers than women, studies are not really that good as there are considerably more men drivers than women. As well to answer concern, mother would do just fine in that car, but you said she got Class-C so no more concern. OP is not sexist, it's just the environment he has grown up made him seem that way. |

OT: Explain to me how I'm being sexist, then present to yourself the counter argument and see that I'm merely being realistic. Also, mate don't go around commenting on my English you dumb fool. |

In any case, when lesser minded people start to realize they don't have anything intelligent to say, they tend to resort to baseless accusations. sexism n.1. Discrimination based on gender, especially discrimination against women. 2. Attitudes, conditions, or behaviors that promote stereotyping of social roles based on gender. By believing that there are inherent and distinct driving capabilities in one gender or another, you are being sexist. I'm willing to wager that you're a bit of a chauvinist as well, but I'll let you look that word up on your own. http://www.iihs.org/iihs/topics/t/ge...tyfacts/gender "More men than women die each year in motor vehicle crashes." http://editorial.autos.msn.com/artic...umentid=788126 "The conclusion was that men break more traffic laws and drive more dangerously than women. Because they violate laws designed to make the roads safer, men cause more accidents and expensive damage." Seeing as how it's pretty clear you're not exactly up there on the IQ scale, let me dumb it down for you. Statistics, that's a fancy word for 'data used to form a represenative sample', suggests that men are far worse drivers than women. So your opening post should have read, "Is it okay for ME to drive this car?" And I'll critique your lackluster English all I want. "Also mate, don't go around commenting on my English, you dumb fool." (Got those commas in there for you.) Last edited by Manic; 09-02-2014 at 06:00 PM. |

There are many women and girls driving FRS. I see them all the time. Young woman, Asian middle aged woman, grandma, I've seen them already.
When I was at dealership they told me this car was very popular for women. So your mom should be fine in it unless she doing windows down revving the car at traffic light. Now the real question is you're a uni student why you need mom's help to "settle in"? Only secondary students do that. PS don't be homophobic. They don't bite. |

The question that should be asked is what are you doing with your life? It's a shame you had to ruin your first reply by coming off as offensive now. |
