Agreed. Preferences aside, I see no appreciable difference between the safety/security needs of men and women.

It's hard to quantify since separate hotel crime statistics aren't kept by police departments, but I think it is naive to presume that men aren't also frequently targetted by criminals. It seems to me the underlying needs for a safe and secure property are the same for all travelers.
