I guess the question is what % of assaults on women are by someone they know. If that percentage is large then that would put a damper on the "safe place" arguement.
I posted a little while back that it's about 73-75% from what I've gathered. Again though, we're not just talking about assault here. These places are also supposed to be safe from harassment, which can be both verbal and silent (think the creepy leering dudes who think they're really smart when they check girls out in the mirror).

Also how come rubecube, wittynickname, photon didn't comment on the women only hair salon posted a while back?
Didn't see the story in question, but if there isn't a legitimate reason why they can't cut men's hair then yes I would agree it's wrong.
