Street Harassment
In keeping with the spate of stories about the about the suddenly too hot weather Gothamist wonders what propels some men to leer and say, "Hey gorgeous" to a woman walking on the street. It's not like the woman will stop and say, "Here's my number." A suckerpunch would be more likely. Is it lack of impulse control? Perhaps, but even that seems generous when a guy will stop, make the woman pass him while he look her up and down, front and back. As if trudging to the subway in the humid weather isn't work enough, but street harrassment in the city will be at fever pitch as woman de-layer their clothing and wear summer clothing. For this reason, Gothamist is considering in investing in a burkha. And will be brushing up on the tae kwan do skills.
