How to ensure the safety of men and women living together in train sleepers?

Train sleeper should be the first choice for many people to travel long distances. It's comfortable to lie down and rest after a long ride, but the sleeper on the train is really a headache, that is, men and women live together. Many people don't understand why train sleepers can't be allocated by sex. After all, if men and women live together, the privacy of both parties can not be guaranteed, which is very inconvenient. Furthermore, when women are in a vulnerable group, cohabitation between men and women can easily bring security problems to women.

In recent days, this problem has been further fermented after the hot search of three men and one woman in soft sleeper. By inquiring about information and personal feelings, I also summarized some difficulties that train sleepers cannot be allocated according to gender, and the methods to ensure their own safety when men and women live together. If you are interested, you can read the following:

1.？ Why aren't train sleepers allocated by sex?

As a matter of fact, China Railway tried out the exclusive private room service for female guests in 2006, but it was cancelled soon because of the passenger flow problem and the ticketing cost. At present, although some high-speed moving sleeper trains and ordinary passenger trains also have private rooms for female guests, they can only be purchased at the ticket window of the station and need on-site coordination. The specific reasons are as follows:

It's hard to predict. The main reason why trains do not distinguish carriages by sex is that it is impossible to predict the number of men and women who buy berth tickets. After all, China is a country with a large population, and it is difficult to confirm how many people travel every day. If the allocation is not good, some seats may be vacant, while others can't get berth tickets, which will lead to a waste of resources.

Management complexity is high. Everyone knows that people will get on and off at every station on the train. If someone gets off midway and there are three girls or three boys left in the carriage, how to sell the remaining seats is reasonable? For example, it is more convenient for a couple to walk in the same car, but after the separation of male and female cars, they may need to apply separately or coordinate with other passengers. So considering all kinds of situations, tickets will be more difficult to allocate!

The demand is not strong. Although the train sleeper is a closed carriage, it actually belongs to public space, and the passengers in the same carriage are strangers. There is no need to be embarrassed to get along in public space. Moreover, whether it is "3 men 1 women" or "3 women 1 men", strangers generally do not have the same intention to commit crimes. On the contrary, in public, a few strangers will also play a role of checks and balances. After all, someone is here. Who dares to break the law? If passengers are really embarrassed, they can also negotiate with other passengers to change places.

2.？ How can men and women live together to ensure their own safety?

①: When buying a ticket, try to choose a position close to the door or window, so as to observe the surrounding situation and escape or ask for help quickly. You can also choose the upper berth if you have the conditions, which can avoid some unnecessary contact or interference.

②: You can carry some self-defense articles with you. Please note that this does not refer to weapons and knives. Although you can't bring anti-wolf spray on the train, you can choose to bring a whistle, pepper spray or flashlight in case of emergency. If you encounter harassment or threats, you can shout for help or use self-defense articles to stop each other.

③: Stay alert and awake. This is the most important thing, you must remember it! No matter where you are, don't accept food or drink from strangers easily to avoid being drugged or poisoned. Don't disclose personal information or itinerary at will, so as not to cause unnecessary attention or tracking.

④ Keep good communication and relationship with other passengers, and try to avoid conflicts or disputes. If you have any dissatisfaction or discomfort, you can ask politely or ask the conductor for help. If possible, you can get to know some passengers of the same sex and take care of and support each other.

? In order to ensure the safety of passengers, the relevant departments have always attached great importance to the safeguard measures on the train and the privacy and safety of passengers. At present, the train will be equipped with flight attendants and police in each carriage, who will be responsible for managing the safety of the carriage and will also patrol regularly. Passengers will deal with some special circumstances in time! So don't worry too much.

Finally, both boys and girls must protect themselves when going out. Once you encounter something that can't be solved, don't be brave. Asking for help or calling the police is the correct measure! I hope this article can help you, and I wish you a pleasant journey.
