# data[].attributes.body
Street Harassment is fairly common in India, more so in some regions. While most often used strategy is to ignore, there are some situations that call for a response.
Some good responses include
-Door Hato "Get away"
- Apne kaam se kaam rakho "Mind your own business"
- Kya kar rahe ho? "What are you doing?"
- Kya Badtameezi hai "What do you think you are doing?"
- Saale (a mild curse)

Catcalling Fines Proposed by Lawmakers in Argentina

Street harassment is very common in Brazil, so the general advice is to try not to walk alone, especially at night. If you feel unsafe, try to go to a populated place. Most women ignore cat callers, especially if they are alone. However, some possible responses are:
-Me deixa em paz (leave me alone)
-Não estou interessada (I'm not interested)
-Pare (Stop)
-Não fala comigo (don't speak to me)
More forceful responses:
-Cala a boca (shut up)
-Vai embora (go away)
Asking for help:
-Socorro (help)
-Alguém me ajuda! (somebody help me)

WHERE IS THE WORST CITY FOR CATCALLING???

# data[].attributes.body
General advice is difficult as situations and aggressive behaviour may vary greatly. Most women ignore comments or only react briefly. If you feel safe enough though, you definitely may say something. Some bystanders, especially young people, may help but others may not.

Lass mich in Ruhe (Leave me alone)

Ich habe echt kein Interesse (I am really not interested)

When someone keeps talking to you:

Ich will nicht mit dir sprechen. / Ich habe keine Lust mit dir zu sprechen. (both: I don’t want to speak to you.)

Hat man dich nicht erzogen? / Hast du keine Manieren? (both somewhat like: Don’t you have any manners)
Würdest du das zu deiner Mutter sagen? (would you say that to your mother?)
Geht’s dir jetzt besser oder was? (you feeling better now or what?)
Asking someone else for  help: Entschuldigung, könnten Sie mir helfen? Ich werde belästigt. (Excuse me, could you help me out? I am being harassed.)

In Argentina, nowadays we normally respond after any kind of cat-calling, gender discriminatory behaviour or public harassment. Women would more commonly react and help if they see someone being attack

some possible responses:
-No te conozco, no sé por qué me estás hablando  (I don't know you, why are you talking to me)
-No te pedí tu opinión (I didn't ask your opinion)
-Andá a decirle eso a tu mamá (let's go say this to your mama)
-¿Pensás lo mismo de tu hija? (do you think the same of your daughter?)
Non verbal response: say any of the previous in a really calm tone, looking to the eyes.

Caution is advised when answering someone, cause you never know how one would react to you answer. In cities, unfortunately, it is quite common that bystanders don’t react or help.
Verbal responses :
“Ça ne m’intéresse pas.” (I'm not interested)
“Laissez-moi tranquille.” (leave me be)
“Arrêtez (s’il vous plait) !” (stop.. please)
“Allez vous-en !” (get lost)

Non-verbal : walk away and ignore

a little more forceful:
Verbal :
“Dégagez / Dégage !” (get lost) “Barrez-vous ! / Barre-toi!” (get lost)
“Fermez-la ! / Ferme-la !” (shut it)
Non-verbal : bras d’honneur, doigt d’honneur.
