France is working on putting an end to street harassment. The nation has announced a ban on bugging women for their phone numbers and following them.

The crackdown comes after a survey revealed that virtually all women in France have been harassed on public transportation.

Few people know that street prostitution has been forbidden in France in 2015. It still exists though, but most hookers went into hiding ; "Liberté, égalité, fraternité" they say....yeah yeah.... a lot of "liberté" I see....

I never get why men would ask for random women's number without knowing anything about her except her looks. It is so stupid.

I guess because they are retarded af

I personally never saw this scene in my life, but I see enough weirdos to know it's a reality. But I don't know how this could be controlled. They should start to put more cameras, that could be a good start.

In some culture, it is considered "macho" "cool" I guess. Yea, that chick is so hot and let me get her number and see if she wants to sleep with me, what a manly thing to do! And hollywood keeps advertising such behavior and boys learn it.

Machismo and sexism flourished long before Hollywood.

In fact, I see a lot less catcalling and sexism, and more empowerment of women now than when I was young and Hollywood has only become more prolific in that time.

I do it a lot, I got slleep with dozens of girls doing that, but the secret is the guys just start conversation when the girl shows interest first, of course being attractive girl too. The problem are the morons and maniacs.

How often does a woman show interest in a fellow passenger on public transit? It never happens in most countries. The survey taken in relation to this topic said nearly all French women have been harassed on public transit.

The problem are the morons think they can do this ever if the girl didn’t is interested and it is not just na French trouble
