Street Harassment: My Experiences and How to Stay Safe

I've had a series of unsettling experiences lately, and I'm reaching out to share my story and hopefully find some support and advice.  It started in Vaishali when a man in his 40s, seemingly intoxicated, stared and shouted at me while I was with friends. The feeling of disgust and unease lingered long after he rode away.  This wasn't an isolated incident.  Another time, a group of men in a car at a traffic light shouted inappropriate comments, clearly trying to harass me.  And then there was the encounter where a man tried to pressure me into getting coffee, boasting about his fabricated wealth and connections.  The audacity was unbelievable! These events have left me feeling incredibly vulnerable and unsafe.  Even a seemingly innocuous situation like eating golgappas turned scary when a man tried to force us to pay and then followed us.  The constant fear, the adrenaline rush...it's exhausting and traumatizing.  I'm sharing my experiences because I know I'm not alone.  Street harassment is a pervasive issue, and it's crucial for men to understand the impact of their actions and for women to support each other.  What are your experiences?  What are some effective strategies to handle these situations and feel safer in public spaces?  We need to create a society where women feel safe and respected, without fear of harassment or violence.
