I got more info... it's not even a tow for HER, it's for her daughter... her daughter "had a traumatic event" sometime in the past, so the caller, who rejected "Zeke," simply does not want a "Mexican punk" going out there. And, not that it makes a lick of difference... but Zeke (short for the Biblical "Ezekiel") isn't even Hispanic. If this woman wasn't hell bent on making sure that anybody with a possibly Hispanic name were avoided, she's get her white boy out there to safely tow her daughter's car. Oh, and the woman was fine with "Tim" going out there to tow her daughter's car... so I'm not going to buy the idea (at least in this instance) that the phobia is based on males, but is simply a bizarre racism.
