How to not get harassed in BD as a woman?
I hate to be asking this, but what should I do to make sure I never get badly touched on road anymore? I had to experience it today for the first time ever and I feel so extremely disgusted... I couldn't stop thinking of it the whole day and couldn't even pay attention to chores or studies.
Today I went to a puran Dhaka market with my fuppi to buy groceries. Both of us were covered from head to toe wearing abaya and hijab. Yet I got harassed on running rickshaw by someone from the crowd. When I looked back, the person got mixed in the crowd.
Don't they say women don't wear proper clothes, don't go out with adults, lure men that's why men do it?? What was the excuse today? How did I lure that person? What else can I even do atp to get basic safety in this country which is not getting my body parts grabbed by other men???
The man who did it was created and born from the same body that I have right?? The women in his family have the same body parts. Then what made him feel so deep desperate thirst to touch my body although he doesn't know what I look like? Is being caged inside my home the only option now? Or should I start going out without any cloth or defense so that they can touch however they want and satisfy all their thirst and hunger?
