Tonight I went to JC Penny to shop for clothes. I found a few cute outfits and went to try them on. After I stripped to bra and panties I looked over by the door where the outfits were hanging and noticed a full grown male looking at me over the door. He had apparently gone in to see what his female companion was trying on and had to walk the length of the dressing room to get to her - and took advantage of the "sights" . I got dressed - with out trying anything on and went to talk to the manager.
And was informed that corporate policy says that they can not tell the males to leave! When I protested that I was not there to be a peep show for strange males, I was again told that it's corporate policy that they have the right to be there and I need to get used to it if I want to shop there.
I then argued that if that were the case I should be able to go into the men's dressing room and got informed that no I would not be able to. So I asked the female manager if she was telling me that it was corporate policy that a male's right to get his jollies was more important than woman's rights to safety and comfort while undressed. She refused to answer me and I stormed off.
I will never return to a store that believes that their female customers are available for ogling just because they need new clothes.
