Japan was one of the first countries to offer cars exclusively femininos. A bill that creates unique cars for women on trains and subway in the São Paulo was approved by the Transportation Commission and should enter soon in the day's agenda Legislature. According to the proposal of Mr Gerard Vinholi (PDT), the idea is to "curb the chances of sexual harassment against passing".
Besides trains and subway, buses would also be required to stipulate placeholders for passing. If approved by the Members, the bill goes to the sanction of the Governor Geraldo Alckmin (PSDB), which will have 180 days to the regulatory proposal.
The idea is that the cars and the seats in the bus are properly identified. Mr Gerson Bittencourt (PT) gave assent to the project because of overcrowding transport at peak times. "The psychological effects of this are very serious petting, bringing serious consequences such as insecurity guilt, depression, sexual problems and intimate relationship, phobias, among others," he said.
The city of Rio de Janeiro has since 2006 subway cars facing women at peak times. They operate on weekdays from 6am to 9am and from 17h to 20h.
