21-Year-Old Influencer Gets Email Asking For Her ‘Charges’ And We’re Disgusted

Unfortunately, the reality is that women all around the world face various forms of harassment on a daily basis. This ranges from unwanted comments or gestures in public spaces to receiving inappropriate comments. Often, these instances of harassment can lead to feelings of discomfort, fear, and even trauma for the women involved.

The prevalence of harassment against women is rooted in systemic issues such as gender inequality and toxic masculinity, which have been perpetuated and reinforced in our society for generations. Many women feel that they are not taken seriously when they report incidents of harassment, and often, their experiences are dismissed or even blamed on their behavior or attire.
