We won't stop the problem of street harassment by asking women to cover up. As long as we cling to the lie that it is women's bodies that are the problem, it doesn't matter whether women wear burqas or bikinis in public –- we'll hold them accountable for what men to say them regardless of how much skin they're showing.
There's only one solution, and that's to start believing that all men (not just a few decent ones) have the power to control what they say and how they act.
Today, March 20, marks the First Annual Anti-Street Harassment Day.
