“You should be ashamed.”
How many individuals feel when facing street & sexual harassment…
Location: Near Whole Foods in Foggy Bottom
Time: Night (7:30pm-12am)
I was eating outside at the Whole Foods on 22nd St. in Foggy Bottom. A rather obese 60s male sat down nearby and proceeded to make bizarre and inappropriate comments to virtually any young single woman who walked by. Only later I thought that I should have said, “What if that was your daughter walking home from work. You should be ashamed.”
