On Single-Sex Buses, Relief From Unwanted Contact

MEXICO CITY — Body-to-body contact is inescapable on Mexico City’s crowded public transportation system.

Geez, thats just wrong. At times they may happen here but in Mexico I can tell its a different story. I've heard stories about riding transit down there and some of the stories weren't pretty.
