Eve-teasing is the one of the most common forms of harassment faced by women. Be it at home, out on the streets, while travelling in office, be it any place in the world, women across the world have been victims of eve-teasing. But what really hurts is that often women are too ashamed or too scare to take any action. But, it’s important to know that these little things only turn into sexual harassment on a large scale.
So what can we do to curb this mentality of men? The problem lies in the fact that many men don’t even know that calling names and trying to grab the attention of women, in an unacceptable manner is eve-teasing.

They need to know and understand the female members of their family too face such situations. This is a much-needed awareness exercise in every home,
