Although I do not believe that simply telling a girl to smile is a form of sexual harassment, I do believe that doing or saying something to a random girl on the street is weird. I think that if a relationship is built between a man and woman, then anything said,unless meant to demean the oth person, is fine. Any actions or physical measures taken, however, is not okay unless both are comfortable with it. This article brings up some valid points, but I do not think that there can be anything done except to make people aware and to raise children with good morals. I also think that it would be hard to establish a difference between harassment and assault, but, in any case, a stranger doing something that makes a person feel uncomfortable is not okay.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]},{"id":"64517960","dateCreated":"1382553828","smartDate":"Oct 23, 2013","userCreated":{"username":"NMitsuyasu","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/NMitsuyasu","imageUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"},"monitored":false,"locked":false,"links":{"self":"https:\/\/iolaniwomenlit.wikispaces.com\/share\/view\/64517960"},"dateDigested":1532140211,"startDate":null,"sharedType":"discussion","title":"Smile Response ","description":"This message particularly interests me. I have first hand experienced public harassment. I've been walking through Waikiki when a group of black males were sitting and started whistling at me. They made vulgar comments such as "Damn am, look at that sweet a$$" "damn that's a sweet behind ya got there sweetie". I had done nothing provocative, was not wearing anything proactive and had nothing done in my power to do this. This hit me because I didn't not realize how relevant it is in today's society.

I hate it when guys tell me to "smile". This type of harassment is actually very common, and until reading this article, I haven't looked at it as harassment. I can now see how objectifying and crude men can be on an daily basis. I know that not all men are animals, but its scary to think that so many feel that this type of behavior is "normal male behavior". I am greatly disturbed by this article and the realization that male "dominance" is VERY present in our society today.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]},{"id":"64506092","dateCreated":"1382522468","smartDate":"Oct 23, 2013","userCreated":{"username":"Leethert","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/Leethert","imageUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"},"monitored":false,"locked":false,"links":{"self":"https:\/\/iolaniwomenlit.wikispaces.com\/share\/view\/64506092"},"dateDigested":1532140211,"startDate":null,"sharedType":"discussion","title":"Current Event Response","description":"My overall emotions to describe what I felt while reading this article would have to be uncomfortable and disgusted. I had no idea that street violence was still so prevalent in our society because in my mind I thought that maybe we have matured a bit. Also, the fact that many people don't even realize that this sort of violence is occuring on a very large scale is rather scary to me. These men committing these awful crimes hurt or even kill women who try to stand up for themselves which, to me is a very scary thought. When I first read this article I thought to myself, these women should have just killed these guys. I was wondering, why do these men find it necessary to degrade women? Is it to assert their dominance because they feel themselves losing power? I'm not completely sure, but what I do know it that street violence needs to stop.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]},{"id":"64505442","dateCreated":"1382519082","smartDate":"Oct 23, 2013","userCreated":{"username":"Sayger","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/Sayger","imageUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"},"monitored":false,"locked":false,"links":{"self":"https:\/\/iolaniwomenlit.wikispaces.com\/share\/view\/64505442"},"dateDigested":1532140211,"startDate":null,"sharedType":"discussion","title":"Harassment ","description":"I honestly you feel that it is okay for strangers to tell women what they like about their appearance, like compliments but there is a line that should not be crossed when talking to ladies.  After reading this article, I felt disgusted because in many places the men will start to physically harass the women after verbally harassing them.  It's so stupid how a flirty compliment can turn into something very scary and dangerous.  I still honestly feel that if a random man just came up to me to tell me that I should smile more then I would just think that he thinks I am beautiful and that he is interested.  I would not get offended if they tried hollered at me but once they call me vulgar names and touching me then its going down.  So, this was very disturbing to read that some women get closeto rape because of remarks made while passing by.

Although i believe there are men who do it without the realization of the damage, I still do not condone any form of sexual harassment. Life can already be difficult and one does not need the additional fear of simply walking in the streets of his or her neighborhood. I believe the best way to combat these sexual harassment is to inform the society on how damaging one single, sexual phrase can have.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]},{"id":"64504064","dateCreated":"1382509442","smartDate":"Oct 22, 2013","userCreated":{"username":"kiyork","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/kiyork","imageUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"},"monitored":false,"locked":false,"links":{"self":"https:\/\/iolaniwomenlit.wikispaces.com\/share\/view\/64504064"},"dateDigested":1532140211,"startDate":null,"sharedType":"discussion","title":"CE Response","description":"The title somewhat dceiving. when I read the title, I did not expect the article to be so serious and disturbing. I was already aware that there are incidents in which men resort to violence when a women say no or ignore their requests or comments. I have heard of instances in which women have been shot for saying no to men, but hearing that a woman has been stabbed in the face and arm is even more disgusting. Name calling or sexual comments on the street can still be considered sexual harassment. Women should be able to walk away without being feeling threatened. What makes men feel as though they are entitled to more power than women? Women nor men should have to give themselves up to anyone if they do not want to.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]},{"id":"64503640","dateCreated":"1382503425","smartDate":"Oct 22, 2013","userCreated":{"username":"Kleein","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/Kleein","imageUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"},"monitored":false,"locked":false,"links":{"self":"https:\/\/iolaniwomenlit.wikispaces.com\/share\/view\/64503640"},"dateDigested":1532140211,"startDate":null,"sharedType":"discussion","title":"Smile Baby ","description":"Men feel the need to be in power and in control. They know they can make a woman feel good as well as insecure with their words and especially with their hands, because most times they are stronger. I think all women need to know self - defense just in case. But  if not, women should avoid eye contact and ignore these rude men. I feel you can take away a man's power if you don't give him the time of day. Men feel offended when a woman says no because she's taking away some of his power. It's crossing the line any time a man puts his hands on a woman.  Even if its not violent, it can lead to it.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]},{"id":"64503178","dateCreated":"1382499568","smartDate":"Oct 22, 2013","userCreated":{"username":"staceyleee","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/staceyleee","imageUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"},"monitored":false,"locked":false,"links":{"self":"https:\/\/iolaniwomenlit.wikispaces.com\/share\/view\/64503178"},"dateDigested":1532140211,"startDate":null,"sharedType":"discussion","title":"Smile Baby Response","description":"After reading the title, I wasn't expecting the content of the article.  At first, I thought this article would be about women's self esteem and how they do not want to be photographed.  Instead I came across women being publicly harrassed by men.  I knew that this was a problem but I didn't think it was this big probably because I live in Hawaii and this doesn't happen much.  From personal experiences, it is scary to be called out by a stranger.  Just as the writer said, going out shouldn't involve assessing whether or not you putting yourself in danger.  I believe that the only way to ease this problem is to raise the awareness of the dangers in street harassment.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]},{"id":"64502402","dateCreated":"1382495680","smartDate":"Oct 22, 2013","userCreated":{"username":"kathrynteruya","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/kathrynteruya","imageUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"},"monitored":false,"locked":false,"links":{"self":"https:\/\/iolaniwomenlit.wikispaces.com\/share\/view\/64502402"},"dateDigested":1532140212,"startDate":null,"sharedType":"discussion","title":"Current Event Response ","description":"Men objectify women because they can.  I believe that they target subjects who they see as timid.  This is why they are usually younger girls.  If the media was able to respect women more, I think that society will follow.  To me, sexual harassment is when that a woman is uncomfortable mentally or physically by in this case a man.  The point in which it becomes sexual assault is a little fuzzy just because it is an extreme type of sexual harassment having to do with a physical attack.  I do think that women claim that even if a man touches them it is only harassment. They convince themselves that assault is done when they are put in some sort of pain.  I don\u2019t think that women want to admit to being forced into such a vulnerable position.  There is no way for women to stand up for themselves without putting themselves in danger because society does not react to these problems.  Men get so angry by the word \u201cno\u201d because it challenges the amount of power they have.  The type of man who gets mad at that sort of thing obviously has a hunger for power which is dangerous in relationships.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[{"id":"66394958","body":"I thought that this article was interesting because it talked about something that women in some ways try to avoid.

The statistics don\u2019t surprise me; however, I don\u2019t see how anything can ever change because of the world that we live in where the media plays as such a large influence in everyday life.  Portrayed in the media many times, women are beautiful dolls that men look at.  This allows men to look at women on the street and have the nerve to tell them what they want to see.  \u201cSmile Baby.\u201d  You have got to be kidding me.
