Thesis on Sexual Harassment Experienced by Women at the Street of Dhaka City

How "people need to understand that street harassment has nothing to do with sex and everything to do with power." how street harassment incidents “are rarely reported, and are culturally accepted as 'the price you pay' for being a woman and living in a city like Dhaka.” It is a “gateway crime” which creates a “cultural environment which makes gender-based violence okay,” and how while a legal method exists in countries like India and Bangladesh to tackle abuse at work or home, “when it comes to the streets -- all bets are off.”
