Men have shown themselves to be unreliable in the presence of women, women will feel very threatened sleeping, dressing, and showering with a group of men.  If it could be guaranteed that there would always be a large group of women and just a few men that would make it safer, but you and I know that sometimes it will be one or two women and a group of men.


As I noted to Siho, men and women are vastly different in strength as a general rule so housing them together makes for trouble.  Men housed with men or women housed with women is a whole lot safer for the women.  We all know that gays will still be a tiny minority in any platoon, they aren't going to be raping anybody as frequently as men rape women.  In fact gay men will often come to the rescue of a woman in trouble with other men.


Will some people be uncomfortable showering with people of the same gender who may find them sexually attractive?  Yep, but in every locker room on the planet that is already the case, knowing who is and who isn't might even make you feel safer because you'll know who to watch out for in the shower if you drop the soap.:)
