Ugh, that sounds kind of awful, I really feel for your friend. That's a really vulnerable situation and place to be in, like that requires so much trust between parties so being there, vulnerable, and suddenly there's a male right there and you can't escape would be so horrifying and traumatizing.

It was a positive experience for her, she was feeling self conscious but ended up appreciating the experience because it made her feel more comfortable. This was like 10 years ago so there were only women and girls there with us. I imagine we would have just left if we encountered a male in the spaces. Even I would have been uncomfortable.

That's actually really cool and admirable if your friend felt better for the experience, it sounds uncomfortable even in a safe and calm environment, so much respect to her.
