Disgusting incidents

eve teasing = sexual harrasment, right?

why the hell do you call it a cuddly name like eve teasing?

[CtrlAltDel]

now do we need to teach guys not to look at females? as far as i am concerned , there is no law or edit anyplace and in any culture that says 'dont look'. and once u are permitted to look , it becomes a very thin line that seperates looking, staring and oogling.

...u r right! i have always maintained that starring/ogling or some common comments can be safely ignored. its harmless and means nothing.

:lol:

good question!

maybe its coz the teaser's feelings wud be hurt if its called "sexual harrasment"

Lets take the "arti" way of fighting back , she says she carries a pin or stamps over the perpetrators toes. thats a way , buts its only the guy and you who know what happened. so it doesnt stop him from repeating it with someone else. what i mean by 'fighting back a little bit' is that you let people around u ( they might not be your friends) know what happened and as i mentioned b4 there will be a lot of people like CAD ( no disrespect in anyway ) around who would respond and give the guy a bashing he will remember.

OK... all three times, I yelled out. What else was there for me to do?

Skimmed through the 6th and 7th page......here are my 2 cents.

Growing up in a co-ed environment need not necessarily translate into 'healthy respect for the opposite gender'.

2 sides to it. I grew up in an all-girl environment (thats 17 yrs of my life!) I've seen some girls who go overboard when in mixed company. They only end up cheapening themselves.

As far as the spitting is concerned it DEFINITELY HAPPENS. Its absolutely disgusting. Was on my 2 wheeler, behind a bus and saw someone spit right across. Was glad had not been overtaking the bus coz it wud have been a lousy start to my day.

I've seen that type too I was in a coed while at school and then went to an all girls college. I met these girls who's never known life in a coed.



I'd still say that while being in the line of fire is disgusting, the fact that you were a specific target makes things a lot worse.

You must be kidding... how am I supposed to kick someone who is on a bike? Maybe I should practice... wanna be the punching bag???

About a week back, my friend (karate-)Lata was going along a street when someone made a pass. She ignored it that day, and the next. But the third time she yelled back Sale agli baar agar kiya to itna peetoongi sab ke saamne ki mummy bhi nahi pehchaan sakegi, and walked off, ignoring some amused and surprised looks of other onlookers.



She still goes by the guy everyday, but he never gets any dirty ideas now .

There was this incident when I was in Ahmedabad. Was going out of town on an official visit and on the way to the station, this guy on a scooter spat on my new pink linen shirt and sped away. I made the auto I was travelling on speed behind him and finally managed to catch him at a signal. That was it. I handed the poor thing a beating he'd never forget for the rest of his life. The sad part of the story was that the guy turned out to be a plainclothesman and I was promptly taken to the nearby police chowki for the pasting of my life.



Whenever I think of this incident, I can't help but laugh.





Advice for Arti...next time this happens, manage to note down the registration number of the scooter/bike that the spitter is riding. And lodge a complaint with yours truly straightaway. Not everyone will be a plainclothesman.

Mistake #1: Why did you wear pink? The poor spitting bastard must have thought you were a chick.



Mistake #2: In India, it doesn't pay to take small time criminals like this to the police station. Just beat him up and go your way if it happens again

Its the plainclothes police man that took HP to the police station, not the other way

I assumed HP took him to the police station and then got to know that the spitter was a cop-in-disguise HP should have thrashed him even more and just left the scene. He would have been safe. Anyway cops always come after everything is over

[Habitual Perfectionist]

No...I beat up the bastard and he pulled out a bloody walkie talkie and called the nearest beat vehicle...which unfortunately was just around the signal.

[Habitual Perfectionist]

And lonewolf....I threw the shirt away as it was paan stained...but a solid light pink linen shirt from Van Huesen is not something chicks would wear.

Dang! Just because he is a cop, the whole thing got reversed.. they think they can get away with anything.. which is unfortunately true most of the time

Oh man! I treasure my Van Heusen shirts and wear them only on special occasions. If someone did that to me (here in the US) I'd sue the bastard!

Thanks HP... but I do remember mentioning that this scooter did not have a licence plate/registration plate
