I do not own any car so whenever I have to go somewhere I have to wait for public transports and frequently walk on the street. I feel really queasy to walk on the road (which is pretty common in Bangladesh) knowing it is very bad but I can not help it as walking on the footpath guarantees harassments like sleazy comments, nudging and poking breasts and making filthy gestures. This is irrespective of how old the victim is or the possibility of the victim to being like their daughter or sister.
