It’s Not A Compliment India

Creating Safer Streets For All.

About

In January 2024, we launched a brand new vertical called It’s Not A Compliment India. We are a movement united in our belief that street harassment should not have a place in our society.

We aim to empower allies against street harassment by providing knowledge and evidence, and advocating for an intersectional feminist movement against street harassment in South India. This is because we recognize that altering societal attitudes toward street harassment is necessary to bring about sustainable and lasting change.

FOR FAR TOO LONG AND FOR TOO MANY OF US, ENDURING STREET HARASSMENT HAS BEEN NORMALIZED AS A REGULAR PART OF EXISTING IN PUBLIC SPACES/ON THE STREETS.

WE THINK IT'S HIGH TIME TO CHANGE THAT.

BECAUSE, WE ALL DESERVE TO FEEL SAFE IN PUBLIC SPACES IRRESPECTIVE OF OUR AGE, GENDER, SEXUALITY, CASTE, RELIGION, ABILITY, SKIN COLOR, OR ECONOMIC BACKGROUND.

BECAUSE, THE DISCOMFORT, FEAR, AND/OR AGGRESSION WE EXPERIENCE ON THE STREETS IS NOT NORMAL.
