When Lavan was searching for his stolen objects Rachel says, "I can't get up for you for I am in the way of woman (menstruating). This was considered good enough to block a criminal investigation and Lavan could not demand her to move "in the name if the law". Thus I would say we see a respect here (whatever 'here' means, since this is before Har Sinai and is Lavans conduct) for women's personnel space that man does not have permission to enter.
