Everyday Sexism: five reasons why men shouldn't shout at women in the street


As the title says, this notice refer about a petition of the women to men for that these could let of to be obscene... 

 Everyday Sexism Project has realized an exercise in witch a women group send her experiencing harassment in the street. So, the incidents are very varied and among them are some that doesn't present violence physical or verbal, because they are "amorous compliment" like whistles.

Some examples, 

@richandgay: On the bus having things thrown and obscenities shouted at me by two young men asking for sexual favours. Delightful.
@thejessicaraven: I'm so tired of people on the street calling me sexy. I'm six months pregnant, bro. You literally just need to leave me alone.
@OtherPens: Crossing street in crowd, older man grabs my hips in both hands while telling me to walk faster. Shoves but doesn't let go.

@AndreaAuburn: just got followed home by two neanderthals in a car shouting slut, slag, ugly etc etc because i told them to leave me alone
...
the idea of this project is to teach to the men for that not to do wrong things or embarrassing, these are the five situations that the women mainly refer.
1. It ruins nice things
2. It won´t work
3. Your logic is flawed
4. It's so passé
5. Karma
All these points correspond to the absurd and vile of human acts, its low sensitivity, etc..
