		<description>dear supporters of this blog..wake up.. either you have greatly underestimated the gravity of problems females face (the count of victims is not 100s, it&#039;s every woman you know.. i.e. half of india).. or you are yourself a molester.. if every victim started to speak up, we will have a much bigger, popular and aggressive blog than BNP..

kudos to deepak, mohnish and the likes for hanging in there.. it is indeed a pain to impart sense to these guys..</description>

		<description>I did not see any query in that comment. 

Also I dont think this blank noise is doing any help by posting some supposed to be molester pics online. 

BTW, no point in attacking me personally.</description>

		<description>Kenny, 

Criticism can be done in a healthy way..but not at the cost of others...
You have still not replied to the query of a school girl...May be this organisation as you call it is doing things for the sake of sheer publicity...but are&#039;nt they at least doing it..?</description>

		<description>Like many others here, I would like to believe you have no women in your life right now, be it in the form of your mother, sister, wife or daughter. Or you keep them in captive! Yes, I agree that at times these self proclaimed &quot;feminists&quot; go out of their way, but the issue you are addressing in such manner is not what you think it is. I have had more than just a few brawls with men who have no respect for women. I have seen them treating them like objects of sadistic pleasure. 

I would like to describe an event I will never forget. I once had to take a city bus on a 45min ride across a metro city. I was with a female friend of mine and this bus was crowded. We both got seats and were comfortable. About 10min after we started, a young woman boarded the bus and stood next to my seat. She would have been in her early 20&#039;s, wore a very old faded salwar suit and boarded the bus near a factory so I assume she worked there and from the look on her face, I&#039;m sure she worked hard to make ends meet. She was short and frail and was struggling to stand because she couldn&#039;t reach the handle on top. I felt bad for her and offered my seat. 

Within minutes another old man boarded the bus, he was someone who looked like he was in his 50&#039;s and carried a shoulder sling bag that looked heavy. 

He came and stood next to me, and asked if he can lean on the seats handle, the seat which I had offered to that girl. Looking at his age and weight of the bag I gave way and moved a little further. A little while later when i turned to talk to my friend who was next to the girl, I saw this horrified look on that girls face. She looked like she wanted to burst out crying but couldn&#039;t. I looked closer and saw the old man very awkwardly leaning on the seat, oblivious of me or anything around. I went closer and saw his hand hidden behind the bag, grabbing this woman&#039;s chest. I very politely asked him to step back because I want to stand there, he refused and had the guts to still keep his hand on her. 

I gently pushed him away and not to mention got into a brawl. When I explained to everyone in the bus, most of them factory workers, they all refused to believe me just because of the mans age and the fact that he was better dressed than that poor girl. When i asked the girl to speak she refused to speak and said it was alright.

That old man got off the bus at few stops later, and many followed him and the bus was then almost empty. I saw the girl cry and asked her why she didn&#039;t speak up. She explained that she travels this route every day, and has been for the past 3 or 4 years. These are the same people she sees everyday, and all the women who travel with her have had same experiences almost everyday. They have tried making noise and did it for sometime but people just ignored them and some even laughed. So they stopped complaining and went to work everyday with these men grabbing every opportunity to humiliate them in those crowded buses.

I know this might not mean anything to you, but what if that girl I spoke to that night was by some chance your sister, wife or daughter who decided to stop complaining and never even told you? Would you still have the same opinion you so proudly expressed here? I hope not!</description>

		<description>Hi Kenny,

I highly doubt if you even understand what EVE TEASING means. Having been a victim of that myself (lemme tell you it&#039;s the worst in Kerala), I do know the feeling of being victimized. Try to research some more before you plunder out ur words like this. Seek out victims&#039; views who reside in the NCR - Delhi, Gurgaon, etc - they will tell you hair-raising stories where most of them lead to physical abuse - groping private parts, pulling clothes out and worse! (Lemme not even GO into that)

So, my dear BLOGGER, I do respect ur rights to view ur opinions - as long as u don&#039;t slap them on our faces and proclaim to the world that &#039;women seek attention&#039;.

Hope one day, you stand to witness the indecency of eve-teasing being cast upon a woman in ur life. And hope you RE-WRITE your blog from the VICTIM&#039;s point of view :)

Thanks!</description>

		<description>I stand by Karthi. May be wearing non-tinted shades and some other suggestions are too much to expect. But that&#039;s only a small part of the huge campaign against molesters and eve teasers. 
@ Kenny: I am from Kerala too. I have been molested on my way to school and back on an average of 3-4 times a week. I didn&#039;t tell anyone coz I didn&#039;t know if I should. I sure knew I wasn&#039;t doing anything wrong - walking to school in a decent school uniform, watching my feet to avoid their glances. If something like Blank Noise had come to my school and created awareness, my friends and I could have complained against these men and something could have been done. 
I will not start on the situation in buses. You may not notice these little things because you are a man and you don&#039;t expect it. I don&#039;t blame you as I didn&#039;t expect it either. However, eve teasing and molestation is a reality, especially in Kerala. I haven&#039;t faced such a situation in most of the other states. No matter what, it will be difficult for you to understand the intensity of how incidents that are probably such &#039;little things&#039; affect us for a larger part of our lives. Because you haven&#039;t been there, you haven&#039;t felt helpless. 
Eve teasing and molestation is real, and I really cannot name even one woman who has lived in Kerala and has never been molested at least once in her life. 
I request you to stop discouraging such organizations in bringing about this awareness.</description>

		<description>Dear sir. 
I definitely consider this as a personal insult.I am a school girl. 
YOU may not know what blank noise is working agaist unless and until you are hooted at, winked at and played songs for at a public place. It may sound hilarious, seriously, it is not. 
No one said girls see every male as a molester all right?
But naturally she will if you gape at her like a piece of meat. 
Women are people. NOT OBJECTS. 
I thought this kind of sickening, narrow minded thoughts that revolve around men men and only men was prevalent only in those indecent animals. 
Congrats! Im wrong. so please have fun speading such &quot;pleasant&quot; and &quot;revolutionary&quot; thoughts among others as well!</description>

I appreciate that you have taken my comments in a positive manner rather than taking it to be provocative.
and well said- &quot;Do you see not traveling in vehicles as a means to avoid accidents ?&quot;
.
now this cleary indicates that u are comparing &#039;road accidents&#039; and &#039;eve-teasing&#039;!!!!!!!!!!!!! and this is so absurd!!!!!!
this blog is just for increasing the traffic or increasing the no. of hits for this blog or whatever u technically say for increasing the popularity of this blog. ., in short, the Creator of this blog is a &quot;attention seeking psycho&quot;(same words used in ur blog)</description>
