Intimidated

Intimidated, sexually harassed

14,12 and 10, 25th Feb 2026 My daughters (14 and 10) went into the shop to look for Vinyls with their friend (12). When they walked in the shop three older men were chatting behind the counter. The girls had been in the shop about 2 minutes flicking through the vinyl when one of the men...

Catcalled, Harassed, Intimidated

Lily-Rose, 26, Jan 2026 I was taking some money out of the cash machine when I noticed some men putting flags up along near Natwest. They shouted over to me asking how old I was & if I was single. I told them no and asked if they had anything better to do with their time. They then...

Groped, Intimidated

Age 16, 2003 When I was 16 I got a job waitressing in a pub. My mum had worked there, my aunt still worked there. The chef was a man in his late 40s I think. He would make sexualised comments to me all the time and made me incredibly uneasy and uncomfortable. I didn’t know how to respond...

Harassed, Followed

26, 11/12/23 Went out with friends. Male was with a group of mutual friends but did not know him. Slid his hand down my back, grabbed and slapped my bottom upon leaving one bar. Appeared at another bar and told me he’d seen me go in there so followed us in. Was told to leave us alone but...

Intimidated

Lucy, 19, September 2025
I was on the 68 bus and an old man kept on turning round and smirking at me and then continued to get his phone out to take a video of me. I felt so uncomfortable, I left the bus before my stop thankfully I wasn’t followed.

Intimidated, grabbed

23, 2025 I was waiting for my tram when 2 men started talking to me. One was telling me how he’s barred from most bars in town for getting in fights and trying to drug and rape women. He told me he sells drugs and weapons and began lifting up clothing to show me his scars. Then he went to...

Groped

Lucy, 27 On a busy public bus, sitting on the back row of seats with a young male on my left and an older male on my right, an empty seat either side me, a man gets on the bus, visibly under the influence and sits next to me, placing his hand on my thigh as he does so, jesting “sorry I...

Sexual Harassment

18, 2008
When sharing a news story at work about eco clothing being biodegradable. A male manager later messaged me privately to say “Biodegradable underwear? Not sure what I would do if you came to work with no underwear on”.
I was a teenager and he was a man in an authority position.

Grabbed

Anonymous, 12, 1992 This was just the first instance but it has stayed with me. On a school trip some older boys cornered me, pushed me & touched me. Since then there has been men thinking they can touch, grab & worse. Even now at 45 men still think they can grab &...

Indecent Exposure

2013 I was kissing my then girlfriend in the pub and a man kept coming up to us and saying we should with him instead/wanting to join us (I can’t remember the exact words anymore). The third time he came up to us he got his penis out. The bar staff immediately threw him out but we...

Groped

15 I was at a concert and a man behind me kept putting his arms around me and touching my boobs ‘by accident’ according to him and pushing against my bum. I’d repeatedly asked him to stop and told him if he didn’t he’d regret it so the next time he put his arms around around my shoulders...
