Disclaimer: the term “woman” is inclusive to all that identify as one. Additionally, this article is not meant to antagonize men as a whole. We at ecomadic are perfectly aware of the fact that there are plenty of good men out there trying to make the world a better place for women to feel safe and empowered. Unfortunately, however, that’s not always the case for all men causing a woman traveling alone to face dangers that a man normally wouldn’t. The aim of this article is to encourage women of all ages who wish to travel alone to do so, while opening up some room for discussion on the sexist and dysfunctional way our society justifies some men’s predatory behavior, whilst simultaneously blaming women for not being “cautious enough”.
