I don't get why women RVing solo seems to be such a "social anomaly" to so many people; you go, girls!
There's absolutely nothing about RVing that a woman couldn't do as well as a man. I don't care how big or small the truck or trailer is. It's a matter of practice/experience regardless of gender.
Now, having said that, as a man I do worry when I see women alone traveling like that. There's probably no real reason to worry. But it's hardwired in men's brains (very generally speaking) to be protectors of women. So we naturally want to shield them from dangerous activities. Traveling alone across the country has an element of danger to it for both men and women. Real or perceived, we want to keep them safe in our heads.
