I get it; when a woman dons a swimsuit on holiday, the last thing they want is an unsolicited catcall or a wolf-whistle. But the problem won’t go away by sequestering ourselves in women-only spaces

If Som Hotels really wanted to provide for women on holiday in a truly meaningful way, feminine hygiene products would be available in all rooms; not just the most expensive. It’s not just the richest women that get their period. As things stand, the two other kinds of room available appear to be absolutely no different from any hotel I’ve been in.

Why is it any different than adult only hotels to avoid kids ?

I like the male gays. Often they're the best of us. Let's not evade them.

Yet you call male only clubs. Hypocrisy. Are we even or not.

I can get into this hotel easy, I will self identify as a woman. Just another crazy idea as part of elite agenda of divide and rule. You have to smile at the whackiness of it.

This is a bad take, that seeks to demonize the only remedies available without offering another solution. You don’t have an idea, you just hate theirs. I don’t have time for all of sexism to be dismantled before going on vacation.

There'd be a gang of blokes banging on the doors and windows shouting about hate and screaming to be let in because they are 'ladies' because they like wearing lipstick.

Not all men are bad, but the ones who are, make it necessary for women to need this type of hotel. Men need to get it through their heads that women are just not having anymore of their harassment, sexual assault and sexual overtures. We are not here for their BS!

There are a lot of reasons that this idea would have appeal. From safety to just being away from testosterone (ask a mother of boys!). Being able to be among your same sex can be very relaxing and a great way to regroup. Let the market decide if it's something they want.

Women of the world.... any man gazing at you or whistling etc tell them to fudge off. They prob think they can pull you but in truth they will struggle to pull a door open on their own if they are wierd/pervy/full of themselves 😂😂😂

What do they have against the male gays?

It's not, the 'male gaze' is not nearly as discriminating...

Islam is right about women!

But me getting harassed confronts the problem? Many men are trash. They need to work on it. Not me.

Yes, how about asking the perv’s to leave instead?
