[QUOTE]Originally posted by egyguy: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Dalia*: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by With a name like Smuckers: [qb] If the women here would bow up and decide to kick some bee-hind at even the faintest remark or illicit behavior perhaps it would stop. I don't mean to put the responsibility on the women only but obviously nothing else is being done. Usually the women just keep walking with their heads down acting like they didn't notice anything. [/qb][/QUOTE]Because it has been drummed into their heads that this is how a *classy* woman reacts. Showing a reaction means that the woman is somehow humiliating herself. :rolleyes: When I first came to Cairo and kept asking people about how to deal with the harassment, I always got a shrug of the shoulders and the answer to "just ignore it". I somehow understand the idea behind it ... that you shouldn't give those morons any sort of attention. But it's obvious that this approach does not work in the least, so, yes, it's time women get more vocal about those things. I've tried all sorts of things and I've even slapped guys a few times. But nothing seems to really have an impact. The only thing that kind of turns the situation around and makes the harasser angry is to use really bad language and insult them, but that is indeed very *un-classy* and can also get you into danger if you're unlucky. [/qb][/QUOTE]If you're harassed all the time Ms, then it must be something you're doing wrong. Sorry, yes Egyptian, yes mean it. [/QB][/QUOTE]
