“Eve-teasing is a very old thing. It has been going on for ages. One of the reasons behind the increase in incidents of eve-teasing is short dresses and short skirts worn by women. This in turn instigates young men.”
—

Bengali actor and Trinamool Congress legislator Chiranjeet aka Dipak Chakraborty on Saturday contended that short dresses worn by women were one of the main reasons behind the increase in incidents of harassment of women in his constituency in the North 24 Parganas district.

I think you’ve misunderstood something very basic pertaining to common sense, Mr. Chakraborty: Skirts don’t cause sexual harassment; Sexual harassers cause sexual harassment. Blaming the victim is what cowards do.

Also, sugarcoating the harassment and abuse women face as ‘eve-teasing’ is another sign of your daftness.

This kind of shit happens all over the world, and it needs to STOP.

Like harassing women is not an essential part of Indian culture for fuck's sake It's not an essential part of ANY culture Okay I need to shut my mouth feminism
