Why women don’t always confront harassers? It can be dangerous at that moment.
This old video from Paris tells us how unpredictable calling out harassment can be. Daytime, a street and cafe full of people, is still unsafe for a woman going about her business. A man says something lewd, and she replies back. He walks a good 50 feet back to assault her.
It is of course not the girl’s fault. 100% blame is with the harasser. But the woman had to undergo another trauma just for confronting her harasser. This is truly sad.
