From the San Francisco Chronicle:

"I think every woman has noticed them,'' said Suzanne "Sam" Joi, a member of Code Pink, a social justice and anti-war group. "I couldn't believe BART would allow something like this. Why are they doing this?''
Ok, I've got issues with just about every angle of this story. Let's walk through them.
