I visited New York City last week from France. I went out with my daughter shopping in Time Square. I noticed a man following her closely and he seemed to have his phone pointed at her as she walked. When we stopped for traffic, he got in close with the phone. I said, “Excuse me? What are you doing?” and he said, “Your daughter is beautiful.” I said, “Stop filming her.” He said, “Tell her not to dress so sexy and people won’t look at her.”
It really almost ruined our trip and I am so sad my daughter was exposed to that.
