And most of the time that fear is not unfounded. Even if you look at the statistics women are much more likely to get followed at night. And when one has to get home late at night, there is always some sort of fear. There is a reason women don’t go on walks late at night. I am not saying this doesn’t happen to men because that is a lie but it is much more likely to happen to women.
So no matter what anyone says, it is never about what sort of clothes you are wearing or what you are doing. It is always about the power and the thrill of it all. That is why women have to be extra careful in most situations. And you can see one instance for yourself by scrolling below. Thankfully this woman didn’t turn into just a number in the statistic and actually got out of the troublesome situation by asking for help from a stranger. It was definitely a risk but it paid off.

As a woman I’d just like to say, if you are ever in that situation please don’t think you can’t go to another female to get rid of creepy men. I, for one, would have your back 100%, also walk you home, and if it came to it, fight for you. Women turn into friggin tigers when they need to protect others. Very very glad this man was here for her though! -Cosika
This happened to my mom when I was with her. And I was 9!!! We were shopping for clothes for my sister and me and then an older man just came and started following us. My mom couldn’t do anything because she was raised in India, and in India, you respect your elders no matter what. But I wasn’t raised like that. I ran towards the man and kicked (you guess where) and We ran until we got in the car. My mom then started crying.
Then a worker who had noticed me kick him knocked on our window to make sure we were ok. He even gave me some candy and my mom some water we thanked him and went our separate ways. -that one sushi
