Document Summary

Online spaces and communities can be very hostile to minorities and women. Women are typically expected to remain in the private realm, are often harassed for joining public spaces which reinforces that these are rightfully spaces for men. Public sexual harassment defines public spaces as male territory. Sexual harassment is most commonly experienced by women and is not taken seriously or counteracted by law/discourse. There is often an intrusion on the private space in a public area, which forces the women to interact with the male which leads to a usual threat of further violence. Public sexual harassment establishes public space as a space where men can move freely and where women are not supposed to be and are harassed when they are. Women are told to stay out of certain public areas for their own good. They are supposed to take precautionary measures in public that men do not need to take.
