the change was possible even after rape. ..

when you are in the bus or anywhere outsidebeing a woman you are not supposed
to get any attention by any one such as exchanging looks.. or looking at them.
you have almost act as invisible or not at all concerned by the rubbings of men..

a girl working as a taxi driver has learned self defence methods to save
herself. Working in the night s as a taxi driver..

a s a father how could one can console and reassure the raped daughter to live as
usual in the society plays an important role he has to reassure that she can
have normal lifedoesnt really matter about the stigma of the society that she
never needs to care about such people or society anymore

Women should not accept street harassment

as 'just a compliment'
It's a myth that street harassment is just a bit of harmless fun. It's about about power and control
and, as I know from personal experience, can so easily turn to violence

mMy coworker was walking me to my car after my closing shift, I thanked him and
he laughed & said he could rape me right now.

At a party with bf, met his friend & pregnant gf. Friend follows me into toilets & says
he's going to rape me bcs I want it.

I was raped by a coworker. I told my boss about it; she said it wasn't rape and
implied I actually wanted it

wo girls in my class were talking about how you'd only have yourself to blame for
getting raped if you wore a short skirt

A former magistrate blames short skirts for rape on #bbctbq Welcome to 21st
century Britain. #VictimBlaming

When a man told me breastfeeding my baby in public is going to get me raped.

ever since I was little my mum told me how to not get raped but I have never heard her once tell
my 2 brothers not to rape.

And FURIOUS that there are people alive who think threatening to rape me on my
way to work is a funny joke
being told by an ex-boyfriend that he'd like to rape me and then he didn't get why I
was angry.

On a nearly empty metro 4 men shouted they wanted to rape me. Scary but we're
not meant to make a fuss so didn't tell anyon

I was 15 & my rape happened at a party. Never reported it because I knew I would
get blamed&no would believe me

When I told friends I was raped, they said I 'should have been more careful.'

got shouted at by a man who then exposed himself to me in the middle of the street on my way to
work :/

To the guy who took the time to lean out of a car window and shout "legs" at me: kudos on
having learnt basic anatomy. @EverydaySexism
But each and every womans story is impacted by sexism and inequality .
Here in Barasat, interviews with two dozen women yielded consistent stories of recent and
repeated harassment. Men trail women on foot or on scooters, making crude remarks and
grabbing at the scarf worn to cover the chest. It happens at the train station, they said, in the fishmarket lane, on the road to the university and outside the police station.
Many women interviewed complained that police do little to stop it. One local officer, when
asked about that by a reporter, responded: "If these incidents don't happen, what will happen to
our jobs?"

A report commissioned by the Indian government after the Delhi rape and murder described the
danger nationwide of "young, prospect-less men" whose frustrations are "lending intensity to a
pre-existing culture of sexual violence."

Standing shoulder to shoulder with one another the fear disappeared.

Women in Coventry took part in the first Reclaim the Night march in Coventry City centre for 30
years recently.
Over a hundred women attended, proudly carrying placards and banners, marching through the
streets of Coventry and chanting loudly.
The march was organised by Warwick University Anti-Sexism Society, Coventry University
Gender Equality Society, Coventry Womens Voices and Coventry Feminists, and supported by
Unite.

The Reclaim the Night marches, which occur at different times throughout the UK, aim to
challenge the violence that women experience and declare that women are never to blame for
being sexually assaulted, and should not have their behaviours restricted.
I had never been to a Reclaim the Night march before actually Ive never been to a march
before and at first I felt unsure about shouting loud chants in the street, but soon the feeling of
solidarity with the other women gave me the confidence to join in.
In Coventry over 30,000 women have been raped or sexually abused in their lifetime; with
approximately 2,600 being raped or sexually abused every year.
Last year a survey conducted by Coventry Womens Voices and Coventry University revealed
that 61 per cent of women had experienced incidents of harassment within the past 12 months.
Almost 40 per cent of women who responded to the survey said they do not feel safe on the
streets of Coventry.
Types of harassment experienced included wolf whistling, unwanted sexual comments and
groping, with the majority 59 per cent of incidents occurring on the street.
It is against this background that the march was held; doubtless many women on the march have
experienced harassment in the city myself included and understand the feeling of fear women
often experience in public spaces.
But standing shoulder to shoulder with one another the fear disappeared; a unified front against
the harassment and violence women experience as we move through life.
Representatives from various womens organisations in the city joined in the march, including
Coventry Rape and Sexual Abuse Centre, Kairos and Foleshill Womens Training.
Speaking before the march, Rosa Parker-Hinton, from Warwick Anti-Sexism Society, said:
Harassment and fear of attack causes women to feel unsafe in public places.
Most women alter their behaviour because of this, avoiding certain places, not going out alone
or driving rather than using public transport.
Women are still blamed for being raped and for sexual violence inflicted on them.
A poll found that over a third of the British public surveyed believed that women were
sometimes wholly or partly to blame if they were raped due to walking alone at night, how they
are dressed, being drunk or other similar factors.

We will march in Coventry to challenge this; to maintain that women are never to blame for
being sexually assaulted, and should not have their behaviours restricted, rather than the blame
culture being challenged.
We will march for our rights to live free of fear of sexual violence. We will march to Reclaim
the Night!
Coventrys first female leader of the Council, Councillor Anne Lucas, couldnt attend the
event, but sent those marching this message of encouragement: All sisters have the right to walk
our streets regardless of age or mode of dress. We shouldnt ever feel afraid. Reclaim
Coventrys Streets tonight.
And Yvonne Mosquito, Deputy Police Crime Commissioner for the West Midlands spoke as
women gathered, emphasising her support, and the need to end violence against women.
As the march ended, at the steps of Coventrys famous cathedral, several women spoke,
including some who read poems about their own experiences of violence and harassment.
For the first Reclaim the Night march that has been held in the city for such a long time it was
amazing to see so many women attending, of all backgrounds and ages, standing together to
demand an end to violence against women and the right to feel safe on the streets of our city.
