Men should heed female hillwalkers' safety concerns, says climbing expert
Briefly

Male mountaineers should be more mindful of women's concerns about their safety, avoiding patronizing behavior like questioning their map-reading abilities.
Recommendations include not pushing invitations, avoiding condescending advice, and refraining from using dated or patronizing language towards women in the context of mountaineering.
Respect people's boundaries, be friendly without intruding, and learn to treat individuals as they wish to be treated in the realm of outdoor activities, such as mountaineering.
The advice to respect women's boundaries and safety concerns in mountaineering reflects broader issues of personal safety faced by women, extending beyond the hills to everyday life.
