“Once I was sleeping in the morning. My cousin came into my room. I was about to get up but my cousin thought I was still sleeping. He touched my body as it is very normal. I got very shocked and looked at him. He removed his hand normally and went away. I could not say anything as I was only 12 years old. I could not forget that awkward incident till today.”
Badhon, 21 years.
“My uncle loves me very much. He takes me wherever I want to go, he treats me whatever I ask for. But when we go somewhere by rickshaw he keeps his hand on my back all the way. This has been going on since my childhood but now I am 18 years old and absolutely I cannot take this easily. I never told this to anyone as everyone might be surprised I am talking about my uncle.”
Rima, 18 years.
“I was only 14 years old. Once I was trying to make sleep my cousin. My uncle came, laid his hands on his daughter and caressed me as well. Honestly I did not understand anything that moment. But after that I never spoke to my uncle.”
Akhi, 28 years.
Any behavior which is not socially accepted and makes a female frustrated and embarrassed must be prohibited. Whoever doing this, is not only doing it to you but also other women. This is a bad practice and most of them are very weak individually in nature. So the moment anyone behaving this sort, you should protest and teach a lesson by the help of others. If you feel shy to say anything then ask your parents. They will understand this problem clearly. Do not feel introverted if other people notice it because it already has become a national issue. Self confidence and courage can make you capable to handle this kind of situation where parents and family members can play a vital role. Finally, cooperate with others to prevent it and make understand the guilty person that it is high time respect the women.
