Street harassment

Harassment that occurs in a public space, often sexual in nature. Street harassment can range from catcalling to honking, holla'ing, wolf-whistling, groping, creepy ogling, following, lewd commentary, flashing, and sexual assault.
Street harassment doesn't stop when the sun comes up. Even during broad daylight, Sally had men hollering at her as she would run through the park – “Hey, big booty,” “Smile at me, baby,” or “Oh, hey baby.”
