Haven't watched it yet as was busy....but did they give out the nationalities of the people involved, or is it an assumption based on something else?

Bad people don't have a specific race, gender or nationality. They do what they do because they are bad people.

The men didn't have traditional "English" accents, no, but could be British.

I caught part of it near the end. So I will watch it again ....... before I make my mind up.

I have a few questions which is why I want to watch it again....

I'm not sure about why they set things up the way they did.

Hopefully the new laws that will be bought in will help eliminate that on the street harassment. Just need some of that good will be adhere in DM messages by everyone.

"Bad people don't have a specific race, gender or nationality. They do what they do because they are bad people."

I somewhat disagree with this.

Yes bad people are bad regardless.

But certain cultures are brought up to treat women very differently and with no respect for them.

Yes it's bad and wrong.

It seems odd to make a show about harassment in this country and show mainly foreign nationals.

They are not brought up to disrespect women. Just to believe that women are chattel , in need of protection, domestic servants, sexual sl-aves , brainless , irresponsible, never an adult and highly dispensable .....

Just like the deluded West really.

I've only seen one clip but I'm if all the voices are altered like the clip I've seen it's hard to tell what nationality anyone is.

Also it matters not one tiny bit.

Talk about deflection.

I think we all need to analyse how we have acted in the past and present.

I've definitely unintentionally belong close or across the line of what is appropriate in my last.

Its cringe inducing to thunk about now but most was down to ignorance.

Open discussion and education needs to start early on for this.

And that's across the board too I've been grabbed and slapped by hen parties

Some of the cctv footage he’s shown me in the past of inside the bar during just one night is eye opening to say the least.

I agree it's not a one sided issue. It seems socially acceptable for women to objectify men and harmless when making comments or touching them. It's a conversation for harassment in general, no matter what the gender people need to be educated on whats not acceptable.

Absolutely and to understand there are differences in the level of threat and danger associated with both.

I watched it and wasn’t surprised or shocked at all.

Every woman you know will have experienced some sort of sexual harassment

Yeah this is pretty common though tbh in London on a night out getting hassled , every time I go out on a night in London with friends, we all get harrassed / groped/ touched up. ... especially by some the Turkish guys kicking about bars/venues in our experiences, though there is pricks off all nationalities but I have always had a larger number of Turkish guys flock around us like flies round shit .

I people watch alot when am out as I dont drink alcohol and its pretty grim seeing how sly/underhand many men are at trying to sexually touch women... on a good few occasions I have intervened and dragged a woman off claiming we have been waiting for her to get her away from some bellend ..

IF you want to see another bad metric on this , some of you should see the behaviour of men towards trans women as well at certain trans centric establishments (and I dont mean sex clubs at all just social trans places(

Got to have your eyes peeled always these days .

It was sad to watch, but what's saddest is that none of it was surprising, aside maybe the premediated way some guys will stalk a woman through the streets, that really was unsettling.

Regarding the nationality thing, the voices were definitely masked to protect peoples identities, but one of the guys choice of words did suggest English might not be his first language. Doesn't really mean much though, we know guys from all walks of life at every level of society that have sexually assaulted women.

I like to see the problem getting talked about and highlighted more and more in society.

Would you say your experience as a TV/TS is worse then the female experience or about the same on a night out ?

How can anyone brought up to be disrespectful towards women… that’s like being brought up to disrespect your own mother! Propaganda is what it is.

Yeah I watched it last night. All I can say is, with some relief, whilst not surprised by what was highlighted, I also found all the behaviours and attitudes on display utterly alien to me and how I was raised.

I think one of the main take-aways from watching all the footage is that, whilst women will still face unsolicited attention and harrassment from blokes on a night out when in a group, the stakes increase and line towards actual predatory targeting gets crossed when a woman is d*unk and on her own - stick together ladies, always and no matter what.

Woman face harassment everyday. Not just on a night out. We are probably unaware how our behaviour makes women uncomfortable, because we have male privilege.

Staring when on public transport, sitting near someone on public transport despite there being plenty of alternative seats available, putting their hands on you/ your lower back when passing by, staring at boobs when having conversations, following a close distance nearby when walking behind you at night, continuously trying to make conversation when you’ve gave no engagement or encouragement, taking photos without permission when on a night out, pushing against you from behind when stood at a bar… to name a few

Inconspicuous !

They probably wouldn’t get away with in their own country. I’ve worked in a lot of Arab countries & never seen women mistreated, objectified, hassled like the UK.

UK sets the bar very low on respect & responsible behaviour in lots of areas not just treatment of women

This.

On 4 separate occasions I've had men "accidentally" Touch my bam when I've been going through ticket barriers. I have called each of them out and each time they said it was an accident. My response is " You shouldn't have been so close that that could have happened" And "How many times does your bum get touched accidentally going through ticket barriers" I asked my husband this and he said he can't recall it ever happening to him so why does it happen to women regularly?

The documentary wasn't just about overt street harassment it was also about women getting there drinks spiked and ra*ed. She visited a school where teenage girls said they had been sexually harassed when they were 10/11 years old.

We all need to look at ourselves and check our own behaviour and those of our male friends and family members. If we allow misogyny to be said and not pull up our friends, colleagues or family members, then this behaviour will continue.

I agree except the poverty part. Statistically economic status Has very little to do with whether somebody is likely to commit a violent or sexual crime.

But was it just me or were most of the guys who were offending not of British nationality?

That comment is not of anything racial or hatred! It’s an observation

Think the real issue is its a man regardless of race,I couldn't tell what race the men were"

I managed to pick up on the broken English subtitles even though the voices were distorted it was still not fluent English spoken sentences

I just watched it and to be honest, it's just sickening. The idea that they would pray on vulnerability is deplorable and like she mentioned, she had a crew around her, who knows how many women they've done this to.

Education starts at home and they clearly haven't been raised to not even respect women, but to just treat them as human beings. The worst thing is I wish on these nights out, other men would call out that behaviour when they see it, but the no one likes the idea of overstepping their bounds. I wouldn't do it, purely because I wouldn't know if they actually knew each other but wish there would be an easy way to tell.

sexual harassment starts very young for women. I remember first wearing a bra at school and the boys would come behind you and undo it. I'm no different to any other woman. In fact it was quite popular when I used to go to night clubs to be goosed ( a guy would come up to you from behind and put his hand between your legs) I remember one guy grabbing my boobs in a nightclub and I took my stilletos of and smashed him round the ears with them

I've not seen it but I do think people's ideas have changed an awful lot over the years. When I was a teenager in my first job, the boss would come past me in his wheelchair as I was bent over filing something away in the bottom drawer of the cabinet. He would lightly slap my arse. To me that's just how he was, but I imagine if someone saw that happening today they would call it something very different. People's perceptions are very different.

It was something very different, it was common practice in the workplace back then and accepted. Thankfully men can't get away with it that easily now. Attitudes have changed but not nearly enough.

Nothing to do with perception it has always been unacceptable but people didn't feel they could talk out and felt they had to put up with it otherwise they would lose their job.

"Yeah this is pretty common though tbh in London on a night out getting hassled , every time I go out on a night in London with friends, we all get harrassed / groped/ touched up. ... especially by some the Turkish guys kicking about bars/venues in our experiences, though there is pricks off all nationalities but I have always had a larger number of Turkish guys flock around us like flies round shit .

I people watch alot when am out as I dont drink alcohol and its pretty grim seeing how sly/underhand many men are at trying to sexually touch women... on a good few occasions I have intervened and dragged a woman off claiming we have been waiting for her to get her away from some bellend .. "

In bradford town center at the night clubs it got really bad with the asians there.

They was gangs of them in cars sat outside the night clubs.

Baying and jearing at the ladies from there cars for them to go with them.

Some got out of there cars tried coaxing arms around the ladies near on escourting them to there cars.

The door staff couldnt do a thing they kept quiet.

The men tried to stick up for there ladies.

They just got out of there cars and battered the men if they stuck up for there ladies.

It also happened often in front of the police and all they did was sat in there patrol car doing nothing.

Unless it was between the whites and the doormen.

I stopped drinking there and went elsewhere for a good night out instead to find a nice lady or take your girlfriend out for a dance and a drink.

Weve lost 10-15 night clubs as you could pub crawl between them.

Only ones still left is near the college area.

Somewhere near here

I watched it and it was hard to watch in parts as there were bits I could relate. I was only talking the other day how on nights out some men can feel predatory. One night, in a cocktail bar that’s usually busy on Fridays and Saturdays, I was sober with friends drinking. I stood by the bar watching. My female friends were dancing together on the dance floor and men surrounded them, trying to dance and touch them. My friends moving each other to protect and get away from the most pervy one at the time. They’d push them off, block them etc but persistent. I’ve been followed, I’ve had photos taken without my consent, unwanted touching.

It was frightening and a wake up call to see how far some men would take it watching that program. Thankfully I have groups of friends who don’t ever leave anyone alone, we usually know some men when out who’ll save us where necessary. But it shouldn’t be for men to rescue us, people need to understand the word no.

A generation apart and no change. The overt cat calling from geezers hanging off scaffolding may have been stopped but the leering, groping on the Underground, upskirting, pestering etc. of women (and girls) by men every time they leave the house - and in the comfort of their own homes through the bombardment of dick pics to their phones - is as prevalent as ever. And we are still blamed for it.

Worryingly, statistics indicate it's actually getting worse. Sexual harassment and violence is RIFE in schools. It's heartbreaking that another generation of women are going to go through this.

Misogyny and sexual violence has always been a problem, but young boys having instant access to hardcore porn cannot be in any way healthy and must be contributing to the increase.

That comment is not of anything racial or hatred! It’s an observation

Think the real issue is its a man regardless of race,I couldn't tell what race the men were

I managed to pick up on the broken English subtitles even though the voices were distorted it was still not fluent English spoken sentences "

Lots of English born people can barely put a coherent sentence together anyway, so i wouldn’t use mastery of the language as any sort of reliable gauge. Hell just read the forums for all of 5 mins.

It certainly does. I watch porn regularly and it helps get me off, particularly when flying solo but I am not a 13 year old boy and I can clearly differentiate between wanking material and real life. Too many men clearly can't - in part as a result from the porn they consume from a young age.

I haven’t watched the programme but a very high percentage of women will have been sexually assaulted at some point. It’s happened to me first hand in school , the majority of places I’ve worked and on nights out. Some people are too quick to laugh things off and say things like “that’s just what he’s like”. My very first job leaving school I worked with a man who was about 30 years older than me. He would sit in front of me when it was just us and try to throw sweets down my top then try and grab them back out with his hand. When I brought it up to my boss it was laughed off as “just a joke”.

The question is not "Is it happening?", because it is, and it is absolutely wrong at this time because it causes distress. The question is "Why is it happening at all?"

It is very easy to blame and shame men in general and demand they stop doing it. Misandry is more commonplace now than ever before. However, what leads them to do something that is generally identified as socially unacceptable?

The forums are full of women and couples saying they are totally fed up with dick pics, yet many men still have them as their avatar? Why? It is inhibiting their ability to get a meet yet they still want to wave their soggy 5 inches in front of the Fab members.

I would suggest as a start two reasons.

1. The attitude of their fathers to their mothers when they grew up led them to think less of women. Their mothers did not seek to correct that perception.

2. The men that exist today are the latest batch of men after thousands of years of development who pushed the envelope to breed. Like animals in the wild they feel the need to push themselves onto females. Those that did not do it in the past died out because their genes were lost from the gene pool. It is at the core of their being.

We are now trying as a society to say it is wrong. So what other reasons are there? What can be done to help stop it?

This is still making excuses to explain wholly inappropriate behaviour by men towards women

I don't send unsolicited dick pics, I've learned better in the last 15 years how to respect other people's boundaries. And my dad was a dick.

Am I just more evolved or what is the explanation for my lack of sexual harassment?

No it is not. It is asking the relevant questions of why? and How do we stop it?

I am glad to hear that. Why are you not a "dick" like your father?
