I'm not bothered if I have to sit by a man on an airplane, unless they start creeping into my space. I understand the seats are small, but I need my space too! Also, anyone who smells of BO, either sex, that would annoy me, so I think if everyone just had common sense and treated everyone with respect, we'd be fine.

This literally plays right into gender stereotypes, the very thing those supporting this move claimed they were against. Hypocrisy on full display.

But some stereotypes are true

But the men can use the women's bathroom at the airport. Makes sense.

The buzzer would be a great idea Cynthia! It will help me feel safer.

This might sound disconnected at first, but I think the root problem is our commodified survival...it's set off a negative feedback loop in the form of poor upbringings, lack of empathy, crooked behaviour...our culture is ugly...a lot of the porn that is available to anyone with an internet connection is not good too - if we ensure basic standard of living people will be less motivated to make perverse material. Some thoughts about the future...there could be visible social credit scores so men and women can be aware of unsafe people before they get too close, we could use the permaculture technique called Companion Planting for planning harmonious communities where people feel safe and loved...and digitizing consciousness to travel at light speed could make travel less burdensome.
