Woman in men’s changing room

[Hoppinggreen]

Firstly this is NOT a trans issue, if it was I would have posted in Feminism
DS is 11 . He has a weekly swimming lesson at a school owned pool but the lesson is privately run. All the other children are of a similar age.
Every week one of the Mums goes into the men’s/boys changing rooms after the lesson to help her son get showered and changed. The boy is 10 and as far as I know (although obviously there’s no reason I would know if it wasn’t the case) there are no SN.
DS has mentioned that he is a bit uncomfortable with it, he is starting to show signs of puberty and he won’t use the showers as this woman is standing there - according to DS she helps her son wash his hair and holds his towel for when he gets out. There are no cubicles that DS can use and while he says the woman seems nice and isn’t really doing anything inappropriate he would rather she wants there.
What is the view on this? Initially I didn’t think much of it but since DS has said he’s not comfortable with it should I mention it to the teacher?
Part of me thinks DS is making an unnecessary fuss but I’m sure I wouldn’t think that if a man had been in the ladies changing room when DD had been that age. Plus DS is usually pretty chilled about things like that, he’s happy to walk round naked upstairs at home so if he’s mentioning it it’s obviously bothering him
I’m genuinely interested in other opinions

I'm sure she means no harm, but this is totally unacceptable and inappropriate.

How do you know this though? Although not common, female predators snd paedophiles do exist.

The thing is that, she quite possibly isn't a paedophile. BUT, if she were a paedophile (and we know that female preadators do exist), this is exactly the kind of stunt you'd expect them to pull, isn't it?

The sex of the adult always takes precedence over that of the young children whom they're helping, as young children are neither considered a threat to the dignity of adults nor are they likely to get embarrassed themselves

So if a little girl sees a man changing or at a urinal the man should feel differently than if it was a grown woman? Is it just sexual unawareness in the girl unlike the woman that makes one acceptable over the other or something else? Since both are female, obviously.

If your son isn’t uncomfortable being naked around you, I would think he wouldn’t be uncomfortable being naked in front of a stranger. I’m much more shy around people I know. Someone I may never see again wouldn’t bother me.
