    I agree with you, but I can see the point of women-only carriages. It’s not only about sexism. It’s about the sad reality that some men can’t behave themselves, and women have a right to travel without being harassed by some idiot. Sure it’s not going to ‘challenge’ male violence, but it’s one possible way of dealing with an existing situation.
