[QUOTE]Originally posted by Shanta Qadeama: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Clear and QSY: ]Honestly, I think I am the only person who has never been harrassed. I walk by myself and never hear one comment. The day Pink Ferret came to Maadi and was walking with me was the first time I heard comments. And they were directed at her not me. I must be very unattractive by Egyptian standards. LOL. [/QB][/QUOTE]No, you're not the only one. My precisely 3 minor sexual harassment incidents from 18 months ago have been given here before. Other than that, no comments, no gropes, no hassles (of the sexual variety) and that is travelling on buses, microbuses, metros and all hours of the day and night. I was on the bus from Heliopolis to Pyramids about midnight on Saturday and I thought, I wish I had an invisible camera on my head filming everyone on the bus so I could prove to people that I don't even get a glance after the initial "blimey a foreigner and on a bus" look. Several people on ES rather patronisingly decided to inform me that of course I had been sexually harassed I simply didn't know that was what it was. Well believe me, I do, very very well. Oh yes, I did do something incredibly idiotic a couple of weeks ago when I was very distracted and got my boob groped by a SAUDI guy. That was sexual harassment but not by an Egyptian. I do know at least 3 other posters here who have not been harassed either but it is up to them whether they choose to restate their positions or not. [/QB][/QUOTE]
