Dangal's Zaira Wasim Molested on Delhi-mumbai Flight! BJP Reacts - Page 2

I have a funny yet sad story to tell.

On my way from Abu Dhabi to New Delhi, I sat on a plane (I was travelling alone) surrounded by men. I suppose this is because many workers from India go to the UAE alone for work, which is why they return alone too. There were almost no women on the plane.

I sat in a row with other men. They began acting inappropriately with me. Spreading their legs, touching me "accidentally (obviously not really accidentally), drinking and invading my general sense of space. I was freaked out (this was a few years ago so I was only 18/19) and too frightened to say or do anything. I just prayed we would reach our destination as fast as possible.

Then a young man walks up, sees my pain, and snaps at the men to behave themselves. Asks them if this is how they act around ladies. Told them to show me respect. I was like wow, a real life hero!

Turns out, this man had his own intentions for helping as well. He sat near me afterwards (which I was grateful for) and initiated conversation with me. I didn't mind, I thought he was harmless because he had just saved me from those other men. Slowly, however, the conversation turned intrusive. He began asking me about my personal life and wanted to know if I had a man, and if I didn't, when I wanted to get married, and what I looked for in a husband. He was belligerent. Although it was different from the other men, he too was invading my personal space. I felt uncomfortable and harassed. What right did he have to ask me all this? I didn't even know him! I felt like he was objectifying me and reducing me to a commodity - something that can be bought or sold, in the guise of marriage. It was awful.

After the plane landed he followed me out - he simply wouldn't leave me alone. He was really just as bad as the other men. I was honestly too scared and paralyzed to speak up for myself. I just couldn't believe this was happening to me, although in my own subtle ways I had tried to end the conversation with him for a long time. I was aloof and gave one word answers. Still, he relented. In the end, he had to leave me alone, not out of choice, but because he had no choice - I had someone waiting to take me to the diplomat counter and he had to go wait in the long line designated for normal travellers. Boy, that was a relief!

So moral of the story, anyone that tries to pick apart my actions and reactions, and blames ME for the way the men around me act with me, can go f**k themselves. I feel Zaira's pain.

The end. 😊
