It happened everywhere , we need to stand for ourselves. Though it takes away your peace of mind, confidence, mental health , career everything but you should fight for your rights nahi to ajj se 5, 10 ya 20 saal ke baad regret rahega ki hum apne liye hi nahi kahde ho paye.

Public transport and crowded places are major harassment points. 😔

This i am bindass I have slapped a few

Once I anger when he tried to touch my chest despite warning broke his toe

One auto guy tried to kidnap me it was not even late . I strangled him with my dupattaa and said I don't mind even killing him . Luckily I was able to hail a cop. The cop said my presence of mind and courage saved me.

So true about public transportation.

I used to keep bunch of safety pin 🧷 on hand and I had pricked one man with my safety pin.


It was when I was travelling back to hostel from the college and Bus was full, there was no seat available so I was standing in the bus with holding upper handle to support and this 60+ man was standing near me in the bus . First he touched my hand and later he touched my waist so immediately I pricked him with safety pin 🧷😡


@ blue - lol that sounds so familiar . Even I used to keep my dissection kit with me 😆 in my college time . scalpel and sharp scissors helped me a lot while travelling alone 😃

For self-defense, yes something should be available or handy. I found pepper spray to be important also

Report workplace harassment, ideally it would be the HR, but from experience they are useless. The only way to survive is to be good at politics or stay firm in your ground. Also make sure you keep a record of all the emails so later they don't say you were incompetent.


@ red bold - so true . When things go wrong you ought to learn how to play politics otherwise you will be prone to such incidents. One thing that I learned is stay alert and never trust anybody.

I agree, no one is a friend of yours in the office, everyone is there just to earn a living and advance their careers and some people don't even mind resorting to backstabbing or sabotaging their colleagues whom they call friends.

True that, have experienced it myself despite having a polite relationship with the colleagues. I don't know what conversations they have in their mind, behind my back, or through calls/texts. Keeping a track record is quite imperative otherwise it will backfire against you. 👍🏼
