A long while ago on TOTV there were some rumors about sexual assaults at a local supermarket parking lot near one of the Villages' town squares.
It sounded like there was something to this but there were various verbal attacks made by TOTV members by the poster(s) trying to bring these to light.
What is unclear about the fact that women often do not report crimes against them for fear of having their characters put into question? This is especially true when involving domestic violence.
Even on this thread, the victim is not given the benefit of the doubt that there was an actual "attack". It seemed like the concern was more with the image of the sports pools rather than the well being of the woman using the pool.
The security at the sports pools does seem a genuine concern if a man can just walk into the area where women are naked. This goes the other way too with a woman walking in where there are naked men except that men are usually a lot more physically imposing than women. Even though I have met a lot of women who I would not want to meet in a dark alley at night if they were in a mugging mood.
