Comments on: Egypt: Taking Down Sexual Harassment http://globalvoicesonline.org/2008/08/22/egypt-taking-down-sexual-harassment/ The world is talking. Are you listening?

It was a pleasure to translate it to Portuguese. It's on the "Featured Articles" of GV in Portuguese right now. The sexual harassment issue is global. And the vast majority of men in Brazil still think the responsability for such violence is on the women who dress in a way they shouldn't, or go to places they shouldn't. It's an all out lie. Sexual harassment occurs all around the world for the same motives: Male pride and lack of respect and minimal consideration for women. We can't blame women for our male immaturity. They are only the receiving end of it, not the cause. And that's what make me nod sadly when I hear a woman saying men are usually evil and potential rapists. That's a sad thing a lot of men around the world are making true everyday. WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR IT. Great article! It was a pleasure to translate it to Portuguese.
