It's a helpless situation.<BR/><BR/>Good luck to your project and wishing that more such innovative solutions be taught to women across all sections of the society because this sort of harassment not only applies to the women who walk down brigades during a weekend but also applies for the house maids, ladies working in a store, etc.Mohanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13533260407332005990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10387075.post-25838667933703602762007-03-10T12:11:00.000+05:302007-03-10T12:11:00.000+05:30This thingie..blank noise....is just a propaganda thing. After reading,seeing u pics...etc i dont understand whats in all Gods earth made u people go to Brigade Road...for heavens sake....its one of elitest places in india.1 in a lakh places are like it. Women in Rural India need ur help. But they live way far from where u people gather to sensationalize the public. Ur intentions,ways,leader everything needs to be changed, then only it will be of ANY results what so ever. Women get gang raped some 100 miles from Bombay and not a single post or action from u people. Pathetic..i must say...or rather u want to just be in those happening places talk about vague things like 'being a woman,essence of womanhood'.One more thing, if u are fighting for ur freedom to do anything, we do u want to curb the freedom of a male to look where he wishes.Who are you to ask for such a control?This is not equality in any sense that you are fighting for. If ever u are decided enough to take a real problem in ur hands...do drop a mail at mail2shiva009@yahoo.co.in.abhinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10387075.post-80423020955696351852007-03-04T17:51:00.000+05:302007-03-04T17:51:00.000+05:30While I appreciate the reason behind this very project, a small piece of information or rather an advice to all the females out there. Male dominated society doesn't necessarily mean the females are on the receiving end. How many of you have ever heard of guys getting groped or touched by the ladies ? Well, I understand and hope you wouldn't have attempted those stuffs. Or you don't have any good-looking male friends with Virgo sunsign who could recite you his unfortunate or fortunate experiences. T.N., Karnataka, A.P., W.B. & Assam - the women are the same. Even with their relatives or husband standing beside, they wont hesitate giving a shoulder touch or rubbing their breasts on the back, most of them in their 30s. You all talk about eve-teasing, but even when doing my 12th, I wasn't spared by those giggling backbench fools. You want to see a piece of the 'bad mama' part of the female hormones, come with me for ride. <BR/><BR/>Think of this situation. How will you feel when one of your close friends openly tells you he'll never walk with me or party together because I get all the attention. Though it was during my college days, I literally can see it happen with me even now, except that they convey the information indirectly and smartly. Also just think of tying knots with an extremely possessive woman and going for a stroll in a busy street!<BR/><BR/>It's just one-tenth of the saga I have recited. There are some serious incidents which are good to be kept to myself as I dont want you to hate yourself.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10387075.post-4238874267564164212007-02-24T19:44:00.000+05:302007-02-24T19:44:00.000+05:30Dear 'm',<BR/>i must have really hit a nerve ;) if all of your comeback was i am anonymous( as if that completely undermines the credibility of anything i said).<BR/>and ofcourse you are completely "out there" by having a profile that says you are from Uk and your name is 'm'.<BR/>you are WAY better than anonymity :/<BR/><BR/>my my i must be such a hypocrite!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10387075.post-38660621845653353162007-02-23T18:23:00.000+05:302007-02-23T18:23:00.000+05:30... and of course that last comment would be anonymous.Mhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01994273676586141923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10387075.post-32075916900710129372007-02-20T23:02:00.000+05:302007-02-20T23:02:00.000+05:30listen up kitten,<BR/>do you know who stands on sidewalks against railings? i just hope your parents dont see those pictures. find a boyfriend and get into a relationship,atleast then you wont have to pretend you " know all about men" .<BR/><BR/>Buncha naive young misled women!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10387075.post-17423853629681706012007-02-20T19:09:00.000+05:302007-02-20T19:09:00.000+05:30hey laurie! thanks! do keep visint/ writing :)Jasmeenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13512982989981340707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10387075.post-43372997798480004612007-02-20T13:05:00.000+05:302007-02-20T13:05:00.000+05:30Wow, what a powerful idea.
