If you were a woman you would ask. Note post in these comments: A good friend of mine, a psychologist, told me that she would never allow her daughters to attend sleepovers or summer camps, because she’d spent so many years treating patients who had been abused in those situations.
I did this when my daughters were young and they were upset….. now they have kids and do the same thing. Neither of my daughters have had any SA and they are in their 40s.
I remember one of my daughter's classmates inviting her over for a sleepover, but I got the creeps from the classmate's dad. I wouldn't even let her go over to their house for a playdate.
My sister was raped when she was 9, across the street at her best friend’s house, whose mother was her gold mother. The much older sister’s husband assaulted her. So yeah, this is an absolute and reasonable concern.

Trans women in a woman’s bathroom is there to pee. The little skirt on the door isn’t going to keep a real criminal out. The whole thing is ridiculous.
This. If all it takes to stop SA is the little skirt sign on the door, then the rest of us would be putting that sign on every door we use. Heck, we could make portable phone booths with that sign on the door, carry them around on walks, errands, etc and pop in whenever we see a man coming.
Daughter became friends with a classmate. And the teacher took me aside and told me under no circumstances should I let my daughter be unsupervised with the kiddos' father.
I know what she did was legally wrong, but I am grateful she did.
Years later, the kiddo told on social media about her abuse.

My 8yo has had one sleepover, and it was with family 10 minutes away.
