A nationwide survey of female joggers showed the shocking results that half report having been molested by men and a majority have been sexually harassed when jogging in public.
Before the survey, police in Helsingborg (where many women report being harassed and groped) are training police dogs to protect women from sexual assaults.
This seems shockingly horrid to have that many female joggers report being groped and inappropriately touched as they jog. Every country has its problems and so do we. However, there is something rotten in a culture that has half of its female joggers getting molested in the past couple years.

They're including "harassment", which I assume would include cat-calling and such. If so, I'm sure American female joggers would report a higher number than 50%. It's inexcusable nonetheless.
is that like the central and south american/ italian etc. butt pinching? think asia also have their nasty hands too_ -- is a world wide hot mess
In some countries, it is common for a woman's buttocks to be pinched or slapped in a crowded area. In many countries, unwelcome groping or touching of any part of another person's body is illegal, but in almost all countries it is considered unacceptable behaviour. Italy used to have a reputation for men pinching women's bottoms, and the term groping could perhaps be applied, but it was not a common term at that time (mid-20th century, for example). Japan has a reputation for females being groped on trains and buses to the extent that the authorities have implemented anti-groping campaigns, which has received considerable media attention and been the subject of serious study in recent years. In parts of South Asia, including India,[1] Nepal[2] and Bangladesh,[3] public sexual harassment or molestation (often known as "street harassment") of women by men is widely referred to as Eve teasing.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groping

It is hard to tell the report says half report being molested and over half report being molested and harassed.
In the US the numbers are similar to under a third, but half of young joggers get harassed, honked at, whistled at, etc...but the molested numbers are much smaller in the US.
It is disgusting that so many harass people that so many don't even feel safe. That the police literally train dogs to stop men that grope female joggers.

I can't understand why they would import that culture.

Two cultures are contributing to the apparent increase in this type of thing. There is the influx of migrants with no respect for infidel women, but it's also about a new generation of women who think that a man smiling and saying "Hello" to a jogger constitutes harassment.
