Early morning, going to work. In my bag are books. One car stopped in front of me. I turned my face and kept walking. Then on the next block he appeared again. Asked if was going to work. I said to him what kind of question was that. And continued walking. He came again apologized for himself saying he wanted to meet me. I told I was going to work and that I was not interested. I never stopped walking, he kept following me and finally offended me saying that I looked like a prostitute because I was wearing a red lipstick!
Serious? In 2013? Give me a break please!
Do you have any suggestions for dealing with harassers and/or ending street harassment in general?
I always refuse in a polite way, if the guy keeps bothering me I start to answer very loud, mainly at public places. I have a little knife in my bag and if I need it I sure will use it.
