Some very interesting observations here and maybe I'll add my two bits!<BR/>I understand your stand about not apologising and I agree that respect is the key; the problem as I see it (having been at the receiving end of some of the worst harrassment, esp at work) is that, once one has been subject to that kind of humiliation, one becomes wary and therefore suspicious of even the most 'romantic' of gentlemen!

That's only the first step.Ashish Gordehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10105222512599129308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9403471.post-1141804349809015982006-03-08T10:52:00.000+03:002006-03-08T10:52:00.000+03:00hii request you not to apologize on behalf of men....hi<BR/><BR/>i request you not to apologize on behalf of men.this is not a man vs woman issue only, its a societal problem, so instead of taking it personally, lets see how we can all be co workers in addressing eve teasing,<BR/><BR/>best,<BR/><BR/>Blank Noise ProjectJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13512982989981340707noreply@blogger.com
