This is a good start toward reconditioning gender dynamics.

I’d add that we have to train not to “freeze". It’s a natural neurological response so you have to train a different response.

Also, you have to have awareness of risk/reward to challenge. It does no good to challenge if you’re going to take a tangential hit for doing so. Challenge only works when guys or corporations aren’t vindictive towards the people who challenge harassment.

We need a safety net and a better understanding what our options are BEFORE we face these situations.

There’s a savviness required to know which guys you can rebuff as you describe and which ones will go after you further or respond vindictively or violently.

How would you suggest developing that savviness?
