Four out of Five Women.

Egypt voices: Sexual harassment

"My mother says I shouldn’t answer back but I think this is wrong"
Right, know your place and let the men do what they want regardless of how you feel or what you want.
"I wear loose clothes, I don’t wear make up, I spend more than an hour in front of the mirror everyday thinking of ways to hide my body."
An hour? To hide yourself away?
I think men are doing this because they are jobless and have no manners.
Maybe, but I think it goes deeper than that. They do it because they can. They do it because the permission, the power and the control they have over women is so culturally ingrained that no-one even questions it.
