隨著夏天的到來,不少小仙女們都穿上了裙子出街。然而來自印度新德裡的女孩希瓦尼·古普塔(Shivani Gupta)卻怎麼也不會想到,她會因此被騷擾。更令人匪夷所思的是,騷擾她的人不是男人,而是一個大媽。

當天,希瓦尼和朋友在餐廳裡吃飯,卻莫名受到一位大媽的指責,說她穿的裙子太短了。隨後,大媽竟然慫恿旁邊坐著的幾個男人去強姦她們。
Shivani uploaded the video of the confrontation on Facebook. She said, 「Hey guys. Today, my friends and I were harassed by a woman at a restaurant for me wearing a short dress. This middle-aged woman you'll see in the video addressed seven men at the restaurant to rape us because she felt we deserved it for wearing short clothes and bashing her unsolicited opinion.
希瓦尼在Facebook上傳了與大媽對峙的視頻。她寫道:「大家好。今天,我和朋友們在餐館吃飯時居然因為穿著短裙被一個女人騷擾。視頻裡這個大媽對著餐館裡的七個男人說他們應該強姦我們,因為穿著短裙就活該被強姦,還指責我們不應該回擊她的觀點。
「For speaking up against her primitive mindset. Our instinct was turn away from the drama but supported by our colleagues, we took her on at a shopping centre, nearby. We gave her the chance to apologise, to no avail, of course. Nothing moved the needle for her, not even another woman who learned the story on the spot and implored the ghastly woman to apologise. See for yourself. And share.」
「我們本不想理睬她那原始的心態,就本能地避開她了。但在同事們的支持下,我又去找她要說法,最後在附近一家購物中心找到了她。我們讓她道歉,當然她是不可能道歉的。沒有誰能說動她,甚至現場有個阿姨得知事發經過後,也要求這個可怕的女人道歉,她也無動於衷。你們可以自己看看。歡迎分享。「

希瓦尼說大媽還跟那些男人說,對於這些穿短裙的女孩,應該一有機會就把她們強姦了。
在長達10分鐘的視頻裡,可以看到希瓦尼和朋友們一直在要求大媽為她說過的話道歉。但大媽從始至終都表現得理直氣壯,說「他們還真敢呢!」(how dare they)
當希瓦尼說自己要把這段視頻傳到網上,讓她火遍五湖四海時,大媽也完全沒在怕的,答道「儘管發啊!」(go ahead)
這時,旁觀的一個阿姨看不下去了。她要求大媽給這些女孩們道歉,還提醒這個大媽,女人有權穿她們想穿的衣服。但大媽對此置若罔聞。

'I am the mother of two daughters,' she says. 'I don't mind my daughters wearing a swimming costume and walking on the street. You don't have the right to say anything about the girls wearing it.'
她(仗義執言的阿姨)說:「我有兩個女兒。我不介意她們穿著泳衣走在大街上。你沒權對女孩們的著裝指手劃腳。」
Pointing at Gupta, she later adds: 'She has the right to wear whatever the damn she wants. Is she your daughter? No. Then zip your mouth.'
她指著希瓦尼說道:「她想穿什麼就穿什麼!她是你女兒嗎?不是。所以閉上你的嘴!」

阿姨還質問她,如果穿短裙就是被強姦的理由,那為什麼嬰兒和老人也會被強姦呢?但任憑你說破嘴皮,大媽也完全不為所動,她說那些人可能是神經病(psychic)吧。
Refusing to back down, the woman tells the camera: 'These ladies want to wear short dresses to encourage everyone to see them.'
大媽毫不示弱,她對著鏡頭說:「這些女孩穿短裙就是想讓大家都來看她們的。」
Addressing the girls' parents, she adds: 'Please control the girls, and control their dresses.'
她還對女孩的父母喊話:「麻煩管下你們的女兒,管下她們的著裝。」

由於視頻並未拍到事發現場,當地新聞在報導時也比較謹慎,都使用了「據稱」這樣的字眼。不過餐廳的經理倒是證實確有其事。
Nukkadwala CEO and co-founder, Nitika Kapur said, 「Yes, we are aware of the incident. The girls who came in are regulars at the outlet. The lady had a certain kind of mindset. We don’t know what triggered her outburst. The manager did request her to kindly calm down since they could not ask her to leave out of respect. Following the outburst, they allowed the group of women to take their food to the upper floor. The restaurant has also extended their support to the girls who had been shamed.」
Nukkadwala執行長兼聯合創始人尼蒂卡·卡普爾說:「是的,我們知道這件事。來吃飯的女孩們都是常客。而那位女士就是有那種心理。我們不知道究竟是什麼引她動怒。因為出於尊重,餐廳也沒法要求她離開,不過經理確實讓她冷靜一下。事情發生後,餐廳讓這群女孩端著吃的到樓上去了,還向那個被羞辱的女孩表達了支持。」

視頻發布後很快播放量就超過了100萬次,轉發也接近4萬次。網友們紛紛讚揚這些姑娘們敢於對抗社會上的病態心理。
他們到底知道印度是有多熱嗎?
她對短的定義是什麼?
我希望她沒有女兒!
對婦女解放最響亮最頑固的反對聲恰恰來自於婦女。
說這種話low爆了,她應該為自己感到羞愧。
主頁君在想,這個大媽一定是沒有看過那個題為「被性侵時,你穿著什麼衣服?」(What were you wearing?)的展覽。如果看過,她一定說不出這樣的話。

這些衣服不是短裙,不是緊身衣,沒有絲襪,沒有低胸裝,都很普通,甚至很中性,遠遠達不到所謂的「輕浮浪蕩」,連性感都算不上。但魔爪依然伸向了她們。
希望大媽能理解,穿什麼與性侵併不能劃上等號。不要教女孩子穿什麼不穿什麼,要教的是男人,告訴他們不要性侵他人。
主頁君猜評論區一定有人會說「看到是印度就不稀奇了」。你說呢?
