The way I understand it is that women need a higher standard of urban design to feel safe / comfortable enough to use a certain space. Urban space is often designed as a utility rather than something to be enjoyed, and I think that this is having a larger negative effect on women than on men. While the improvements are beneficial to all, they are more beneficial for women.
