thank you so much for this article. I read a book once called, "sex object" by Jessica Valenti, a woman raised in NYC and it really opened my eyes to how often women are sexually harassed in public. I can't even begin to imagine or speak about how it is in other countries/cultures. It comes down the purity myth that women need to be pure and any of their actions that lead to men harassing them were "asking for it." It is such a broad topic and it hurts my heart that other women do not stand up for us. Excited to read more from you and learn more.
