Is it normal to be harrassed on the street because you are a woman?

  • 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.
