I don't get it, /o/. Two out of every three muscle car drivers I see are women. This makes no sense on multiple levels:

>Women don't typically find enjoyment in driving the same way men do and would have less reason to drive a high-performance car

>Women don't typically have the high-paying jobs required to afford cars like that

>Fun cars are the first things that married women make their husbands give up, so a male owner is unlikely

I don't understand it. How/why are there so many?

How long until the big push to make car culture a "safe space for women"?

Ages ago. In the 90s the first cars whose SECONDARY objective was a driver's car such as the Honda SM-X were released. Then you have the development of the Ford Explorer which was actually designed for women.

The USA has become a pain in the ass for this bullshit in particular, but what would you expect, with California being the global hub of social justice and all? A significantly larger proportion of people drive automatic there from what I've heard. They are also by far the ones kicking up the most stink regarding Volkswagen, partially because they're the only ones still clinging onto the "muh nazis" argument which every other country matured out of decades ago. Really, I think it's high time Volkswagen just plain packed out of there like all the other big European brands did in the mid 20th century. Thin the choice out to American or Japanese. I'm not defending what they did but no-one gave a shit when GM, Ford or Chrysler did stuff twice as dastardly as VW did.

>heated seats

>vanity mirrors in sun visors

None of this is there to make men feel safer.

Not to mention muh safer drivers media campaign and more competitive insurance rates. Seven out of ten times traffic is being held up at the lights, it will be a woman looking at her phone that's responsible.

See this thing?

It's a tree.

Trees are awesome. You can crash into a grown up one and it won't care much.

See that metal guard?

You can't see it when backing up into a parking lot between two of these trees, and I know muscle cars have even worse back visibility than my hatchback.

These guards fuck up your bumper.

I (a man) dislike driving and I'm only interested in automotive because I enjoy fixing things.

My cousin (a woman) finds driving to be a highly enjoyable pass time and drags me off on late night trips once a month or so.

She prefers SUVs to muscle cars because better performance in bad conditions and being higher up.

why are you tring to engender a gender norm about the enjoyment of driving?

Define "getting into".

Just because they're buying them it doesn't mean they're "into" cars. Just because I buy a gun it doesn't mean I'm "into" guns. I would have no idea how to clean, dissasemble or service the damn thing.

good think I had a trusty robust Russian gun that could deal with it

It's really not hard though. There are plenty of videos on youtube, as well as miscellaneous websites that can tell you how to clean your gun and what products are good.

before my mother had me she got the cars my uncles got bored of working on, so she always had some nutty built up mustang, transam or impala.

maybe they bought them from family, or have a family of gear heads.

this may be true, but its still extremely ironic when the vast majority of women buy V6 base models and consider them a status symbol
