For some years now, in some countries transports have been created exclusively for women, as a way of fighting sexual harassment. In some cases, it's female-only carriages in trains, in other cases taxis. I found an article in which some examples are given:
www.telegraph.co.uk/women/womens-life/11824962/Women-only-trains-and-transport-How-they-work-around-the-world.html
I'm not completely sure what to think about this and I believe it's a subject with potential for interesting different points of view. So, is this a solution to greatly reduce sexual harassment? Is it just tackling the consequence and not the origin of the problem? Is this an exagerated solution which could cause more harm than good?
