Do you have a story about street harassment during the global COVID-19 pandemic? Share it here and we’ll post it for International Anti-Street Harassment Week, April 19-25.
Every day when I go out on walks near the downtown area, someone makes a comment out of their car window at me. They honk their horn or yell out something about my body, like the fact that I’m out there is an invitation. One time someone called me a whore and threw water on me. It makes me feel disgusting and degraded that people treat me like this just for leaving the house in shorts.
