I took the train this morning using monthly LIRR card of my relative. The train crew checked my card and asked if it was my card. I said yes. He said the hole punched was Male, not female. So he repunched F and circled the F box and wrote on the card FEMALE ONLY and said you shouldn't share card. How can he use the card tomorrow?
Ridiculous! If I am the same gender, I can share the card because no one can find out. Subway card doesn't have this problem. RIDICULOUS!
I once saw the back of a seat "F*** LIRR FARE". now I wanna add AND STAFF. Paying over $200 a month for this service?! NOT ANY MORE!

um, what? so you got caught lying and you are mad? nice going.
um, you broke the rule and you got caught. You should do the right thing and buy him tickets for the rest of the month. Lucky for you it's May 26th and Monday is a holiday.

Basically your male relative has only 4 days to use his monthly, so he could either:
1) Attempt to use it and see if the conductors have mercy on him
2) Attempt to use it and hide the "female" side... tell him to have his ticket "half in, half out" of his wallet, hiding the female side.
3) You can buy him a round trip peak ticket in case he gets caught using #1 or #2
4) You can buy him a 10 trip to use for the remainder of the week and you can keep the rest when he's done.

5) he can dress in drag for the rest of the month
...and considering how hot it's supposed to be, a nice pencil skirt and silk tank top might be a nicer alternative to a suit and tie...
come to think of it, i might try that option myself...
That rule is ridiculous. You can't transfer the ticket between sexes but you can within. Does that make any sense.
I know you are not suppose to share passes but really what affect does that have on the railroad. How many people are in a position where two people can really share a monthly.

You can't share tickets period but easiest way to ID is between male/female cards. Mail order ones have names printed on the pass but who's gonna ID every card holder on the train.
Maybe when they start adding pictures to these. it'll get more interesting.
