20Tweets from the Week:
1. @KDesborough No more #DelhiGangRape – send an email to justice.verma@nic.in urging the government to stop sexual violence and end war on women #India
2. @emmiesunshine Maybe instead of sarcasm, wit, or fake names, my new response to #StreetHarassment should just be, “Uhhh… I have the clap!” and bailing.
3. @unfortunatalie Walk: 45 minutes, street harassment count: 3, verbal, mild.
4. @matendre @hkearl Masked on Halloween – the only time I can walk 1 NYC block w/out a “man” lashing out in anger if I’ve a response to his harassment.
5. @patrickryne is it irresponsible for @MailOnline to talk about this ~benefit~ of #streetharassment without noting how seriously damaging it is?
6. @mycolouredsky Street harassment sucks. Period.
7. @renireni There’s nothing like a bit of street harassment to remind you that the streets aren’t yours to walk down
8. @korobumame While watching tv, walking street, shopping, eating out, sleeping, everywhere everyday twentyfourseven harassment never ends.
9. @sav_ann Why do so many Indian men deny the widespread and frequent occurrence of street harassment? what’s in it for them?
10. @boleroforboys And that culture of “it’s a compliment!” and “I just wanted to get your attention!” that allows street harassment is rape culture.
11. @AmiFromIndia @delhipolice2 #DelhiGangRape Victim’s friend speaks , did you listen ? No ? Listen ! Kaan khol ke sunno aur #JawaabDo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75uMQgSAtJU …
12. @ericararerica Do not #catcall me while I’m pumping gas in 10 degree weather then pretend you were whistling at my boots. #streetharassment
13. @Vidyut It is a myth to think that “eve teasing” is basically sexual. It is dominance. Bullying. Sexual harassment only because it is easiest tool.
14. @nikkyricks Omfg !! A bloke has just pinched my ass #Unbelieveable
15. @WhiteGirlNell While I was out running yesterday, the street harassment was real. Can’t even get my run on without an asshole comment.
16. @futilityfiles Leers, “Hello, mademoiselle.” I mutter “hi,” looking away. His retort? “I meant monsieur.” Ooh I’m so mad now *eyeroll* #streetharassment
17. @sydmosley Apparently tonight I’m a “f*cking b*itch” because I asked a man to “stop staring at me” and “move along.” #streetharassment
18. @CLButler76 Leering drunk bloke at the bus stop grabbed my hand and informed me I’m beeYOOtiful and did I know that? #ffs #streetharassment
19. @Vidyut For me, online abuse at women is like street harassment. You keep shrinking till street not usable. Evict creeps, walk with head held high.
20. @chloemiriam All this sexist stuff is part of the same thing, from lads mags, sexist adverts, rape jokes to sexual harassment, rape & murder. STOP IT ALL
