I know nothing of the interview he’s referring to here, but how is it misogynistic to use your company to get girls? Was he picking up Uber employees or potential hires?

- combatentropy 9y agoIt's the difference between loving someone and using them.
- conradfr 9y agoYes that's all there is to human interactions, either love or objectification.
- quadrangle 9y agoThe phrase "get girls" is even itself misogynistic since it's already an objectifying phrase. That doesn't necessarily mean that the person using it otherwise deserves being judged and identified as a misogynist. But the judgment of Travis is probably based on a lot of other factors than that one phrase.
