I don't think that counts as harassment or that leading to asking for a number. If they persist after saying no or then jump to insults due to it, then I will agree. I've had it happen to me from time to time and wouldn't consider it harassment other than when it turned out into insults or so on for saying no, though.
Just because something feels like harassment does not mean it is. Yes, things can escalate if said no, just as many perfectly acceptable things can escalate. I have dealt with what you're explaining myself but I wouldn't take it as a reason to brand something as harassment just because it may lead to those situations.
I can't really agree that it's the standard in my experience of seeing rejected guys, but meh.
Different countries, different gender and different opinions so,meh.
Though I must say that if someone FEELS harassed his or her thoughts and feelings shouldn't be dismissed.
I guess men in general must learn to sense when their contact is welcome and when it's not. And females need to not judge all men as potential rapists- Sadly it's hard to avoid.
I don't know how being a different gender would have any difference. I have dealt with sexual harassment myself and the things in this topic you would say is harasment that I wouldn't.
If someone feels harassed from someone's comments or initiationof discussion then they should express that they do not want to be told such things or talk to them. If they continue to give comments or try talk to them then I would say that is harassment.
Is it normal to be harrassed on the street because you are a woman?

Well, it FEELS like harassment if you know that more often than not saying no leads to a difficult situation for you if you follow me here?
Then, of course, it's wrong to judge everyone but when this is the standard it's hard to not feel uneasy about things like this.
