Possibly because women are walking alone and can be easy prey. I have walked 5 caminos and it has happened to me twice (2014-2020). I didn't report it as nothing was likely to come of it. So I am sure there are loads of women who have experienced the same as me and have not reported it.
Sorry, you are absolutely right. I'm being over sensitive! Navigating blogs can be so difficult sometimes and it's easy to get the wrong end of the stick or take umbridge where it's not intended.
If you are a woman walking on her own and it's the only albergue within your plan and you can't walk further, it's not exactly a choice. And it's really not funny either. The emoji about having communal showers is belittling what I'm trying to say. I've walked five caminos solo and at the end...
I hate all the bridges, especially the ones going over the motorways. Put your head down and put one foot in front of another. Take deep breaths, counting if you will and dont look over the sides. Good luck.
