What I always find hard to get a grip on, with these increasingly common scenarios, is how the people who provide the counselling (who must, surely, consider themselves to be empathetic) just refuse to put themselves in (at least some of) their clients’ shoes and do what is totally within their power to mitigate the problem.
They are legally protected too - it’s not even as if there’ll be (legal) sanctions imposed on them for ensuring women are accommodated by their services.
