She faced eve- teasing from a young age
The lecherous advances and the unwanted gaze
Left her traumatized and disgraced
This is the twenty first century and not the old ages
We speak of women emancipation
Their freedom to move about freely
Speak their minds and wear whatever they please
How can you judge her by such things?
Resist such occurrences by collective intervene
Raise your voice against such injustice
Whether at home or workplace or outdoors
Confront the harassers and lodge a complaint
Take a stance against sexual harassment.

Very nice…
Though we call it 21st century but we still have people with old pervert thinking..

And those guilty…to be punished…without any delays…these cases can’t be left hanging like civil cases for years together….the judgment should come within 15 days…else sack the judges, investigation authority and the lawyers involved…

It shameful that we have to face such situations even at this age. We need to teach our men from childhood to be respectful towards women.

The lady in the picture should have been taking that picture gut punching that cubical creep. I don’t think you should touch anyone and stick to working getting Your pay cheek and going home. “Oh I was just being friendly”… Shut the f××× up…. What if some one was harassing your mom or sister. Some People are just sick with narcissistic personalitys. It’s disgusting!

Enduring it isn’t right. There are stringent laws against sexual harassment . Why not use the help of law against them. ? I know its easier said than done but there needs to be a beginning.

Yeah,it is definitely not right,you and know this.However most of the Indian women,fear due to the blackmailing they go through,where they are threatened in terms of the family.Moreover you know the laws,how these brats harassing others get away so easily,leaving the shame on the girl.It is a sad state of affair.

Yes it’s a sorry state in India. Most of these affluent perverts have the law in their hands and they would stoop to any level to harass or disgrace the woman concerned if they’re faced with charges.

Thanks for stopping by and reading my post. It’s really sad that we women have to face sexually harassment nearly everywhere ; outside, at workplace and even sometimes in our homes. We definitely need to be more vociferous about it. Would surely go through your blog.

True. It’s very hard being a woman. You always have to be alert. Everywhere you go. It’s hard enough being a woman all by itself. But even harder when society makes it more difficult.
