[quote=joec]I’ve also read in either Brazil or Mexico that they have female only buses or trains or whatever so this “problem” I’ve mentioned doesn’t happen. It seems like even if there were other women on the bus/train, if there were 5 rowdy guys bothering 1 girl/women, not many females would really stick up for someone else when they themselves could be a target…[/quote]
That would definitely make it a more appealing option, but the terminals and local routes to and from home/work would have to be equally safe.
