[QUOTE]Camille Regnier is a 21-year-old actress living in Paris, France. On Tuesday, Regnier was taking the Paris Métro when she says she looked up and saw a man touching himself right in the middle of the train.
Regnier posted the photo on Facebook. That night she discovered that her post was being shared heavily. “I received a lot of private messages from girls telling me their own stories,” Regnier told BuzzFeed France.
The day after Regnier posted the photo, Paris police identified her alleged abuser. They told her, though, that posting his image on Facebook was problematic.
Exhibitionism in France is considered sexual assault. [B]According to a French study in April, 100% of female public transport users surveyed said they had experienced at least one incidence of gender-based harassment or sexual assault.[/B][/QUOTE]

[QUOTE]I had a man masturbating at a bus stop looking at me, he then came on the bench next to where I was sitting. I was also at the beach once and noticed a man standing behind a tree watching me doing the same thing, I'm sure there have been similar incidents but they were the first two they immediately came to mind.[/QUOTE]
OP username fit's.
Paris Tranist must be something if that Survey is true. ..

100% doesn't sound like a very well made survey. But it sounds legit enough to tell that there's a severe problem.
Article looks like the girl's FB gallery, with a dick pic thrown into the mix. Buzzfeed even manage to fuck up a sexual harassment article.
wow i was just in paris for two weeks and didn't even realize this was a thing
Welp. Apparently they surveyed 600 women in Paris for that study. That's pretty awful.

France is getting a very messed up, You've got more and more attacks just for religion and things like this happening more often.
so did he just not give a fuck about being caught or something?
i really hope this isn't bullshit like that one thing where some woman posted a scripted video or something of them walking 10 hours in NYC in the ghetto and getting "sexually harrassed"
Hey, I was surprised this wasn't Florida this time.
If I saw some creepy motherfucker doing that next to me I'd beat the absolute shit out of them. What the fuck???

:what: Full 100%? Did they interview 4 people?

Then you'd risk getting sued for assault

Once you live in an urban city environment you see this kind of stuff almost everyday.
I'm not surprised it's 100% at all

I find this... Hard to believe, to be entirely honest. I mean, I would believe something like 60% or 70%, hell even 80%. And I'd agree that it's obviously a huge fucking problem in any of those cases, and I'm not saying that I know that the actual number isn't somewhere around there. But a survey in which 100% of those taking it fall into a certain category? Sounds like someone's trying to inflate numbers...

How often do you ride on public transit? People j/o and get blown on it surprisingly often. The skytrain that I ride on occasion had to put up signs where the ads use to be to encourage people to report it :v:

It also depends on what the questions were too.
If they left it as something as broad as 'gender-based harassment' then I'm pretty certain a lot of women out there are going to put anything as simple as some dude who won't shut the fuck up about their life story on the train would count as that thinking they were hitting on them. Or just anyone they don't like trying to hit on them in the first place.
Questions are super important in statistics and if you ever get 100% on any question you give people, you know you've fucked up somewhere. You don't actually get any useful information from that.

or maybe france is just full of freaks, who knows
While I remember horror stories from my french class about the Paris transit system, I have to think that maybe the 100% figure is partly the vague wording and partly french sensibilities
Still this is just unacceptable public behavior

Along with physical and verbal sexual assault, the study also included:
- Whistling after a woman
- Making a comment on her looks
- Having an "obstructive posure" which includes "manspreading"
- Having a stern look, staring
- posing questions about her sexuality or trying to hit on a woman
- General assault and threatening a woman
As valid criteria to count as sexual harassment.

I'll admit, I live in Florida and our public transit infrastructure is a joke, so I don't ride public transit often, but I had no idea it was that bad. That's terrifying, to be honest.
I understand that she reported the incident [I]the day after[/I] it happened... but why not say something, the moment it happened?
This whole generation of passive-agressiveness is getting out of hand. Grow some balls for once... I'm sure plenty of dudes in that car would have gladly beat the ever-loving-shit out of that guy, then kicked him out of the train, for being a nasty fucker.

And since when is BuzzFeed a news source, btw? :v:

I agree. The survey says 100% of women experienced some sexual harassment... but I bet non of them reported anything. They should be reported to police, or exposed to public.
And I think people are also missing the fact that the survey was only conducted with 600 women from Paris. I mean, it's a sample size, but then again, don't more than a million people live in Paris?
It also may be way too biased, we'd have to look at the questions. If they threw in questions like "have you ever felt insecure in a crowded bus?" (instead of something more to the point like "have you ever been groped in a bus?") and they all answered yes, that would make the results rather useless, based on inconsequential questions.
