MaybeDoctor just scrolled back to see your post (sorry - easy to miss things in a very long thread, and when you're out at work etc.). Yes - absolutely.
The incident you describe is so like many that happened in my teens. I remember on one school trip one of the outdoor ed instructors trying to groom a friend of mine who had obvious learning difficulties - I and another girl watched her like a hawk to make sure she didn't go out on the town to "meet her new boyfriend". (We were all 14, btw). But what if a predator like that had been able to find an easy way to access the girls' floor of the accommodation, rather than having to try to lure her out to a bar? Bang goes a layer of safeguarding.
And at the risk of sounding like something out of "American Pie", some of what went on at my Youth Orchestra, in terms of older men grooming and molesting teenage girls, was just terrible. Back in the 80s we had no adults in a position of authority to tell us it was wrong, either. The adults who did find out would just tut, and mutter about "jail bait" and blame the girls.
That's what this situation is going to take us back to. Driving a horse and cart through safeguarding, so that girls no longer have their boundaries reinforced by adults, but instead have their boundaries systematically dismantled ("Feeling uncomfortable about showering with someone with a penis? You bigot, you.")
Sorry for what you went through, Doctor
