‘Women Flying Solo’ Stories, Blah, Blah

RE: Dangers aside, traveling alone satisfying to most women /Kristi Eaton, Associated Press

Cheryl-Anne Millsap /SR, via Facebook: “I was disappointed in this story in Sunday’s Spokesman-Review. It’s the same as 100 other “Women Flying Solo” similar pieces. It doesn’t really relate to the ways most women are comfortable and willing to travel alone. Most can’t quit work and travel the world without a care. Most won’t surf couches in the homes of strangers. (I know some who do, but more who wouldn’t consider it.) Many are middle-aged, not 20-something. I did like the Women Welcome Women World Wide, idea. But the rest was a bit tired.”

Question (from Cheryl-Anne) Why does everything relating to women who travel alone have to be either “EatPrayLove” or “Adventure Girl”?
