    From the study summary:

    Three out of five women aged 16 to 34 years experienced at least one form of harassment in the previous 12 months

    Three out of five is 60%.

      I don’t want to get in the weeds here, at least once in the last 12 months is not regularly, that’s my point on your misrepentation.

      Again when talking about actual threats to women it is not strangers but men already in their circle, yet that is not what the bear discussion revolves around.

      Please answer: Why do you think the actual threat doesn’t shape public consciousness the same way perceived threats do?

        I understand that this information is against your internal narrative, but a quick look at data for 2021 shows:

        One in two women and one in five men felt unsafe walking alone after dark in a busy public place.

        And data from 2022 shows 45% for the same measure.

        As for harassment:

        2022 - 55% of women 16-34 felt harassed

        2021 - Three out of five, 60% felt harassed during the year.

        Twice as many women reported being harassed as men, and several reported changing their behaviour because of harassment.

        This is also echoed in international studies over multiple cultures. Women are much more often harassed than men, almost exclusively by men, and have more limited freedoms, expressions and rights than men.

        This is not controversial, it is well established in study after study, there is an actual right answer to this, and it’s not the one you’re proposing.

        How is it that you keep ignoring data when faced with it, and instead of presenting supportive data resort to arguing feelings and whataboutisms?
