Director of Women Under Seige, Lauren Wolfe, explores the issue of women traveling alone in a new article in the New York Times. With an increase in assault cases of foreigners in places like India, Turkey and Mexico - Wolfe asks whether “for women there is a different tourist map of the globe, one in which we are told to consider the length of our skirts and the cuts of our shirts, the time of day in which we choose to move around, and the places we deem “safe.” But as one commenter said: “Bad things can happen, but bad things can happen when you get in a taxi in New York.” Would you reconsider your next travel destination?
