Sexually Harassed

Sexually Assaulted

M, 15
Attempted rape on an embankment in the centre of Littleborough by the road by a man who was a little older than me. I had to reason with him to promise to give him what he wanted in order to get away.

Spiked

Megan, 19, October 2024 My friends were getting ready for a night out. I didn’t intend to go, but just before they left, I decided that I would. I hadn’t had a drop of alcohol up to that point. We got to the bar and ordered a round of jager bombs. One of my friends didn’t like hers, so...

Sexually Harassed

Anon, 21, June 2025 I went into a small shop to buy some snacks for myself, instead of being greeted properly, the man serving at the till said to me “do you like it tight?” I said “what?”, and he said “you’re out of breath”. I do struggle with...

Intimidated

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...

Groped

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...

Groped, Sexually Harassed

Multiple across years
Males touching my lower back to move past or closer to a bar. “Accidentally” grazing my breast in places with space. Literally over years, everywhere, always since I was 18, I’m now 35. This happens EVERY time I go to a pub after 5pm.

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

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...

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.

Groomed

L, 17, 2016 A close friend who knew that I was vulnerable emotionally used that against me. He knew that I didn’t want to do any of the things that were done. He made me feel like my resistance was being unkind. These things happened on the sports field and his home. The last time...
