You were fine, I'd hope that someone would do this for my daughter.
Even the nicest men don't get it. They don't have the lived experience of being hassled so can't understand.
When I first started seeing my therapist, I had second thoughts. I pulled up to his house (he works from a home office) and it was dark as it was winter and 5pm and I saw him silhouetted in the upstairs window, obviously watching for Mr and I thought to myself 'are you fucking crazy? You don't know him from Adam! No one knows where you are.)
Then I thought fuck it, he isn't that big, I've driven an hour to get here, I'm doing this. If he's a freak I can take him.
He wasn't a psycho and all was fine but when I told him a year later that when we first met, I had been scared of going into this strange man's house, in the dark, when no one knew where I was, he was surprised. Said he had never considered that and had never really thought about it that way when he decided to work at home rather than rent office space.
He's one of the sweetest people I've ever met and it just never occurred to him that his female clients might have felt vulnerable walking into his house for the first time.
It just genuinely does not occur to most men.
They have never had to develop the same sense of danger that we have. Ignorance is bliss I guess.
