"Rise in London Underground passengers reported to police for 'intrusive staring'"
Claims today's news networks.
This poster has been plastered around the London Underground:
And people are actively taking them up on the opportunity:
"Speaking to The Telegraph, Detective Inspector Sarah White, who leads the sexual offences team for British Transport Police, said that her team have already started receiving several reports of people who have been caught staring inappropriately."
She seems to be well into the idea:
"It's human nature to stare at things. However, it's very different when someone is staring, leering, or there’s a sexual motivation. We want to know about that staring because that is the behaviour that suggests to me that someone is thinking about a sexual behaviour that supports that staring.
The campaign aims to challenge the normalisation and dismissal of this behaviour as ‘something that happens’ to women and girls on public transport and in other public spaces, making it clear that it is never acceptable and that the strongest possible action will always be taken."
Well there ya go.
