- On the streets of Cairo, women protesters are facing the threat of sexual assault and harassment, sometimes by mobs of men. Unreported World reveals claims that some of those men are being paid to carry out the violent attacks. With Egypt in the midst of a revolution, many of the women fighting for change in their country are now too scared to take part in public demonstrations because of the threat to their safety.

Unreported World reporter Ramita Navai travels to Cairo to meet some of the women who have been victims of sexual assault, but are now fighting back - and investigates if this is a ploy designed to silence women at a time when they are trying to get their voices heard.
No matter what a woman dresses those sick men would still sexually harrass them.
Yes that is right. When they rip the clothes off them it does not matter if you're in NYC in summer shorts or a full burka they always have an excuse. They always blame the female even really young ones and even old ones. Nuns have been raped, what does that tell ya?
@@arianashabani5072 shut up. Stop being an idiot. Or are you just another feminism hating man with a fake account trying to act like that's women do?? Gawd CZcams is full of incels like you.
Sushmita That you havent experienced anything bad with men is your problem OKAY but I personally am DONE with men, in my eyes their nothing but BAD!!😡🤬
@@arianashabani5072 If you think I haven't experienced anything bad with men, you are wrong. But i acknowledge and appreciate the good men who stand for women. That's how everyone should. You can't stop the evil with evil and generalization. Then what about all the good men out there? Don't they deserve to be appreciated?
And then there are also fault accusations, gender biased laws and radical feminists. So all men should start hating women and say women are bad?

yes but they we're motivated by wacthing european japanese pornogohpy
@akmelot shli Why?
I'm an Egyptian woman and I've been hearing that it's women's fault my whole life but still this video made me cry. I sued a man who harassed my sister last year and he's in jail now, but the worst thing happened was when my dad wanted me to give up the case and said it was our fault. By the way we are hijabi but this is Egypt.
im an iraqi man and we support you. we also support for the right of woman to choice regarding the hijab. i hope we can all fight for the freedom of all oppressed people in our region together.
Aw Zahraa you did the right thing for your sister. Unfortunately the older generation are also brainwashed and tend to blame the women instead of holding men accountable. I hope neither you or your sister have to experience anything like that again. I'm glad that fool is in jail!
It is not your fault and you did a very brave thing.I can't imagine how hard this must have been. It takes strong humans to stand up for what is right to make it better for generations to come...unfortunately some dads are too weak to admit their mistakes as it's too painful for them - it takes a wise, strong man to admit that he is wrong...
Its the mans fault not yours/the womans!
I‘m from Germany and here mostly you can wese what you want but even here are man that think it‘s the womens fault.
Many men are just like uncivilised dogs.
Wish you all the best and that this will get better there 🥺
That's sad in the west you have to answer to the dad if you did that to our daughter. I think it has to do with arrange marriage and guys not able to get none. No prostitution and 20 year old virgins.
This is not just a problem in Egypt. This is a culture within male middle eastern mentality. I'm a Kurd who was married to an Arab in Canada... his dad SA'd me when I was alone with him and it was one of the catalysts that ended our marriage. I am now fighting in court and reliving this trauma over and over again. I stand with my sisters of colour everywhere! THEY WILL NEVER SILENCE US!
I wish you win the case and teach them a little lesson
You are a disobedient wife and court divorce is not valid in Sharia.
This culture is everywhere not just tithing the Middle East open your eyes
@@NourKLI Who said that was the only place..... you made that presumption. Egypt statistically is one of the worst places for women though. it's just honest. I'm middle eastern myself lol
Hey you are misguided actually they are following sunnat of prophet 😊😉
“It’s your fault, you’re not covering” but then even the covered ones were being harassed
MyUser Name It’s got nothing to do with not covering up 🤬 western men don’t walk around public beaches where women wear bikinis grabbing them and pulling their swimwear off !! These men know it’s ok and will NEVER take the blame , the woman is always in the wrong !!!
@@thornbird6768 Yep and they call Western societies sick. They are more sick.
Don't it find it strange that it only happen in Egypt. There are protests in Hongkong, and none of the women were sexually harassed or none of them had head covering. There are protests in U.S. and in France and all over the world and none of them are sexually harassed during protest, but only in Egypt. And you will find that Egypt's muslim population is 95%. This tell you as much. In fact, the men targetted the cover up women, because they know this type of women are docile and they won't dare to report to family due to family's honour or will be killed by family member. They dare not even report to police because of family's honour. You know why China had low crime rate. It is because rapists are executed, corrupt officials are executed; so more criminals executed, less crimes. Whereas in Egypt, police will not bother about sexual harassment because these policemen themselves could even the ones who did the same thing or corrupted and easily bribed to not investigate them. Let the communist party of China ruled Egypt, and these crimes will disappear.
@OMAR It has everything to do with Islam. Read the Qu'ran.
Shopaholic undisputed heavy weight champion why is woman always in wrong
And to think that Egypt once had female queens and goddesses....

Bounty Adams Sadly this is true .
I just dont understand why they let this happen in the first place. Egyptian culture is not Arabic culture.
Lady Selenite it wasn't like this until the mid 70's , where Egyptians who emigrated to the gulf states came back with new culture and traditions that unfortunately influenced many Egyptians.

don't be ashamed as a man, the people we're watching here are animals not men, they should in all honestly be put down like one.
Thank you for saying this. In the midst of watching men act like this, it’s easy to accept that all men are this way. It’s good to know good guys are still out there after seeing disgusting behavior like this.
@@giocommentary no, they aren't. They are still men, don't try to justify them by saying they aren't men but animals. They are men and they are aware of their actions.
It is not because of being a man, but because of being an Egyptian man, and that’s the stereotype of Egyptian men and Muslim men
"He'll get what he wants by force. He can't stop himself" - YES he can. It's called NOT BEING A RAPIST.
@Headohones Love omg...can you share that link. That's so disgusting.
Headohones Love, there were cases of refugees in Europe raping BABIES and TODDLERS too. Baby rapes are all too common in Africa and Afghanistan. It is catching on in Egypt where sex tourists are buying sex with children including babies. It is sickening.
@@cynthia87918 Its common in Muslim Arab countries as much. Don't single out Africa.

Indeed... it may have happened there as well, but a very similar situation happened in my country, a mere one hour and a half from where I live. I live in an area with a relatively low level population of this ideology, even so, it is still a problem. In the east coast, where populations are higher and more concentrated, the attacks are so common that media bans are in effect and school boards (where the 14~20 year old males are put in middle schools to increase their English skills, if any at all, and in an attempt to catch up their education) are told their funding will be withheld if they talk about it.
I hate no one, but I hate the actions of those within this ideology who see the "others" as being lower than they... and to be used at their leisure for their own pleasure.
@Headohones Love apparently it would cost them paradise if they masturbated instead, but I might be confused
These men do this not because the women's clothes 'arouses' them, but because they know they'll get away with it and that it'll strike fear into the women's hearts. Stay strong sisters, keep fighting! 💛
@SilverHearted 108 Yaaas!

@@fourever2ne1 i am not convinced of that theory... behind a sexual assault there are also sexual pulsion in game, those pulsion are of course not alone and power have a big part in it for sure, but power alone does not cause a sexual assault, just an act of bullying...

Very much demonic energy.
There's no love in a world that does this to the precious created in image of God women.

Fellow Hawaiian here! I couldn’t agree more.
Not only Egypt but in almost all countries that’s not very safe for women. As a woman myself, I don’t feel safe at all no matter where I am unless I am with a group
Im a black woman. Lived there for 6 years. This video gave me a serious flashbacks. There was no a day i would go without being sexually harassed.
😐 I was just about to say I'm glad I am a black woman. It is so disgusting and it's good you got out of Egypt😤 Hope u r doing alright nw

And they pray five times a day. I think their god doesnt approve. No paradise for these miscreants
I'm sorry that you had to go through that😢
This is outrageous!! They act like animals!! It's really scary to live in a society where being a rapist and assaulting women is normalize!!
The reporter that was assaulted was rescued by other women. I feel so much respect for Egyptian women.
Yes and No. The assaulted reporter was Lara Logan. Look for her interview were she explains in details about the assault. She was dragged by the mob to a fence were a group of women tried to save her. They were joined by few men that also tried to help her. At the end it was Egyptian soldiers that manage to pull back the mob and take her out.
I agree. Respect 🙌 and stay strong.
The irony is that the interviewer had the biggest balls to do this interview. Thank you, I salute your courage.

*How do these women look at their brothers and fathers?!*
If you cannot control yourself around women, it's you who has the problem. I really think highly of men in my family and in the course of my life I was lucky to meet men of amazing character and ethos. That young man completely embarassed himself and men in general. He made men look like they have the mental status of an animal who has no logic, moral or control. If you need to live in a controlled enviroment that lacks any kind of temptation for you to be moral , it's a sign that you are deeply immoral. A moral , respectful person will remain so under any circumstance.
yes, i think those men in the video should go to the hospital, checking out their mentality
But even the most covered women are harassed. The ones in a veil and long clothes. Wtf
If you wear a knife you will be safe
There is no relation between the clothes a woman wear ,and the mentality of beasts .

You are no doubt in that

Sadly men in these countries aren’t taught to see and treat woman as humans equal of respect. This won’t change until there is a complete mental and moral change.
Good luck on that
Boys and girls are not the same. But those men that did mistreat those girls are in the wrong, and have weak deen

So they take advantage of women like a slut so that they wont become a slut. Muslim logic always fascinates me.
Respectfully disagree. It is completely a way that they "feel" powerful. They feel in control.
@MxCM-bo3vk THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH RELIGION IT HAS TO DO WITH CULTURE FOOL
The logic of one man in this video is absolutely stupid. Blaming women for their harrassment because they dress in a tempting way.
The same logic could be used by a thief or shoplifter.
They the merchants are tempting us by displaying their valuable wares to the public.
Gold, diamonds, Omega watches etc.
We can't help but steal them because we have no self-control.
True !!!!
Such a great comparison. I feel the majority of assaults especially in the past have been blamed on men having strong desires and their inability to control themselves. Just like you said, if you are in need of money or food it doesn’t make it okay to take it. Parents have to teach children about respect and self control. Any religion that teaches men are above women are the biggest contributing factors and needs to die
This is the logic across the board, I know a couple of Egyptian men and it will make your head spin some of the things they believe.
In Islam men are commanded to lower their gaze when they see women other than whom they can look at, eg wives, mothers, dsughters, sisters, etc.
@Moon Moon That must apply to women too. Does it?
I wanted to see Egypt but fuukkkkk that I’m boycotting that place
The same is going on in Cambodia, Nepal, India, just hidden from the tourist eyes.
Raschungpa yeah and also here they’re only showing the bad places in Egypt . Egypt is not all like that we have New Cairo , Alexandria, Sinai, etc that have good people with better understanding of human rights

@@arwamansour7350 difficult to beleive, when you see a mob stripping a girl down to nothing and then torturing her, where is the law and order? How do you vouch for this.
manju chandra am not lying. I live in Awal Al Qahera Al Gadida which is New Cairo and literally I didn’t know anything about what happened in that video before i watched it . And all the revolutions and bombs don’t happen here . It’s like i live in another country maybe its cause all the people who live here are high class or have money
These kinds of harrassments will not stop until men realize that women are humans as well and they have equal rights and influence in the society. Unfortunitely this does not only happens in egypt but many parts of africa and asia where men dictate women in the name of religion. I hope these women win in their fight of equality
The Koran states that women are destined for hell and are equal to animals.
This brings back so much bad memories. I lived in the Middle East until my early teens and sexual harassment, male gaze, and insults were part of my daily life since the age of 12. This is what happens to a culture that puts the pressure of covering up, honor, and reputation on the women and let’s men be as free as a wild animal.
Exactly what they are wild heathens
Men have to cover their gaze, they're not "free" as you try to say
@@user-su8xw6kx9z but they don’t that’s the whole point. The pressure is on the women whatever she wears or does, she is getting assaulted and raped. It’s called rape culture and it’s everywhere, in different shapes and forms. Even in western countries.
@@user-su8xw6kx9zit has nothing and didn’t change anything. Men should get used to see women as humans and talk to them in a normal way, the problem with the stupid Islamic value of lowering your gaze is that it still treats women as sexual objects.
@@user-su8xw6kx9z but they don't lower their gaze , it's just a way to oppress women in the name of religion..men don't do what they are supposed to do and force women to follow the laws which the men , themselves don't follow
This is painful to watch. It makes me so angry!
I have an Egyptian friend who has invited me over, no way would I put myself amongst that. These men are mentally and emotionally children who have never been taught self discipline, I had a boyfriend from Kashmir living here in Australia, who tried to force me to cover my hair because he said it was seductive. Stuff that, must every beautiful thing be destroyed ? absolute insanity. You are expected to be invisible until needed for something. Also, I have to say I know not all the men are like this, some have intelligence and think for themselves.
Please stay away from Muslim men
Instead of telling women how to dress , teach men how to respect a woman!
What women wear can never be an excuse to sexually harass them if so last Vegas would have been the worst place on earth or Brazil...these men have no excuse to harass women
Chief idk if you know this but Brazil is alot worse then you think
Fatma Said , this is not just harassment, this is rape, assault, Gross Bodily Harm.
Because if you are a single man in middle east, there is no way to make sexual relationship. But in Las Vigas you could pay for woman for one hour and got pleased and unloaded your desire.
@@3asem5000 but still it cant be an excuse Islam marriage is very simple only pips these days wanna have THE GRAND WEDDINGS ....its not an excuse to such acts
Sadly the Latino culture has many men who think like this too :(
Where are the decent Egyptian men who are willing to stand up for their sisters, mothers, daughters, cousins and say to men "behave yourself!" Where are the Egyptian men who are willing to tell their brothers that they should be ashamed speak that way to someone? Where are the Egyptian men who will speak up and say "do we want to be a culture where bullying women is what we do?"
Sadly it's rare nowadays it's a challenge to walk alone in the streets
They don't care unless it's their mother, sisters or daughters the same reason why you don't care about a person you walk by on the street.
Research a great guy named Hamed Abdel-Samad. It's at least one Egyptian man and he's a brave and wonderful man.
Turtle Van They don't care. They will just blame them. They may even be the ones who will kill them if they are raped. These are the mentality of these men. They won't find the culprits who raped their family members or relatives, but they rather killed their daughters or cousins who are raped to solve the problems. They are killers and cowards. They had no sense of justice, but only care abut their honours and themselves. They are selfish to the core.
They clearly don’t exist I feel so sorry for Egyptian women
How would these men feel if someone did this to their mothers?
They need to learn that they alone are accountable for their actions.
Don’t worry they will blame their mothers for not covering enough
The dude that said that women wore cloths that would arouse men and then said don't harass them is so disconnected. If women wearing long pants and niqab aroused them then they have some serious problem.
I didn’t get that so we wear clothes and we basically arouse men then next time I wear A plastic bags on my head and Wooden clothes wtf is this men are sick idiots
The woman who stabbed the guy with the needle 🙌🏼🙌🏼
@killer miller maybe then these monsters would be able to control themselves.
Yes this is what the majority of middle eastern women have to deal with everyday. Even as a student I’m always jumpy at night incase a man decide to target. God bless that woman and protect her. Cutting off their private parts will not work, men are spoiled in Arab society unfortunately you find woman are stronger than men and more humble
Because the women do not report it. The word of a woman is only worth half the value of a man. She must have 2 men to stand as witnesses for her, if no witnesses she is published for having sex outside of marriage. She can be stoned or locked up for life.
These are the teachings of Islam. They are written in the quran. If the rape results in a child, the child is locked up with her.
Is this representative of men or representative of some kind of gang?
The men who raped the women 👏👏👏👏👏
Unfortunately in Egypt, this is a typical day. Everyone I have met that has been to Egypt says you can barely walk the streets as a female without something ridiculous happening. The statistic I researched some time ago said something like 98% of Egyptian women fear leaving their homes because of this. It's truly a humanitarian crisis and the saddest part is the world is just NOW witnessing this when honestly, it's been happening the whole time. It looks bloody exhausting just to exist as a woman.
the koran says women are equal to animals so whats wrong with it?
be a little more tolerant with other cultures and religions. dont impose your values on other peoples millennium old ways u racist nazi.
pink toes - surely you're joking???
.
No you are wrong i am saying this as a girl who is middle eastern and has studied the Quran. You foreigners stop making false assumptions about Islam you don’t understand judging from your statement you are like a parrot who does not have brain and only repeats. Islam was first religion to give education to woman and put a severe penalty for rape it also says to respect woman because they are gift from God. This cultural and comes from bad mentality and has nothing to do with Islam.
. Have you read it in Arabic? the english translated version is wrong, only the Arabic one is true.
Also - from what i've been lead to understand - Egypt has (one of) the world's *highest* rates of 'f-g-m': "female genital-mutilation", tragically...!
I remember that dark period of fear and disgust. People were supposed to go out and celebrate after the revolution succeeded then countless rape cases started popping up and what should've been a joyful time turned into a horrendous shock to everyone. I remember feeling my skin crawl thinking about all the women that went through such atrocious incidents and feeling and unsafe in my own country...
Ladies of Egypt you are strong and fearless! Good luck to you all. Harassment is not ok at any circumstances.
I lived in Alexandria for 8 years...not a day went by that I didn't face some sort of sexual harassment. That includes during my pregnancies, pushing a pushchair with my kids, walking in the street, in taxis, on the tram...everywhere. I was groped, punched in my face, spat at, verbally insulted, I even had pornography played down my landline. I'm a streetwise London girl (woman) who does martial arts and speaks Arabic, I understood the culture . Final straw was when adult men started coming on to my 7 year old daughter. I've lived and breathed that sick life in Egypt. I had friends in full hijab who suffered equally. It wasn't because I was a foreigner, it was because I was a woman.
I wrote this in another thread, but I had a wonderful tourist visit to Egypt ten years . Just loved it. The people were wonderful and especially kind to little children.
I think, in a way, Egyptians may be politer to foreign women. Maybe if you lived there and spoke Arabic, they'd expect you to become one of them, wearing a niqab and maybe not even working. I didn't really see strollers so they might have even found pushchairs to be ridiculous, like maybe women are always supposed to be home with young children unless out with the husband.
I'm not saying you deserved to be harassed, just that maybe the bar for harassment is actually lower for local women and expats.
Very typical of Arab men. You are right: it's because you are a woman. Plain simple. I always find it disgusting how RELIGIOUS they are and how much they "worship" "allah". Lol how hypocritical.
In my opinion these men are sex beasts. They hide behind a vain name allah to deny that they REALLY love s*x but are ashamed to admit it to themselves. Now it explodes into this barbaric sexual frustration. I never hang out with ANY Arab or middle eastern person. They're psychotic.
@@ampa4989 dude shut the fuck up and stop trying invalidate all this women's experiences. Egypt is statistically one of the worst countries for women in terms of harassment. Horrible country. Horrible people.
A shame u had to live there temporarily. Hope ur good now
Hmm Where was your husband? He should walk by you. I’m not bothered when I’m with my husband!
I've been to Egypt. Spent three months there as a woman traveling alone. But it didn't take me long to realize that I needed to stay with other women, or a man I knew, as much as possible. There is a train car just for women. If you're female, use it. It is for your own safety. My shoulders and legs were always covered but once when I was in Luxor there was a wedding celebration going on. These celebrations are separated by the sexes. This group was all men and I sensed that if I tried to walk through them, there was a good chance that I would be sexually assaulted. I wisely waited until a group of foreigners were also passing through and walked through with them. The country is sexually repressed so men look at you like a piece of meat and if in a group will use that power to take your's away. Overall, besides one incident where a man commented on my behind, I didn't have any issues but I also don't immediately look like a foreigner.

The reporter stood clear of not mentioning the cultural context of this segment. The fact that patriarchy(sexist domination) is rampant in Egypt and it is the motivation behind these attacks on women. Those women are coming face-to-face with males who have been raised to think that women are objects who can be used and abused instead of respected. There is also a religious component to this, where the religion reinforces the violence toward the women, because the religion is male-dominated and men set the rules.

Gross! You're not "men" if you can't control your desires. The ladies take more physical and verbal abuses from you that's way worse than your "desires". Gouge your own eyes out if you can't handle the pressure . It seems your women are stronger than you.
Yup. Tight jeans alone should not cause you to act like an animal.
Preach sister
@Lzb Lmvm So are you saying that a women's body has the same value as an object?
They should marry men.from civilised countrys.
@Lzb Lmvm youre sick for thinking that
I'm curious why Egyptian men have little to no self control .
Religion
@@ST-yc7ujit has nothing with religion to do its more the culture the same is in India

Imagine paying you £10 to sexually harass a woman forgetting that you have a girl child who can be anytime also in trouble.
So disgusting men.
This is shocking I had no idea Egypt was so corrupt...I will share this video to everyone I know we need to help these women they don’t deserve this

3asem Ahmad They started with Mubarak, and then Morsi, and now you're saying removing Sisi would solve everything in Egypt. Are you conscious of what you're saying? The power is in your hands. But since you're Arab, it is so unsurprising. You people feel so entitled. But in fact, you're so delusional. Who do you want as a president? Jesus Christ the savior? Arabs are so demanding, weak and indecisive. This is exactly why you people are considered such a failed society. This applies to all Arabs. Fucking move your ass and start by the simplest of things. Stop expecting everything to naturally change and stop depending on your Allah. Your Allah wants you to start making effort in order to help you people.

To be a mother who has raised these heathens I can’t imagine
As a child, my cousin and I were sexually assaulted and carried around like a piece of meat. We were at a fairground. I remember when we were at the top of the Ferris wheel, I turned to my cousin and said, where are all the families gone, I don't see any women. She looked and noticed too, being tougher then me, she said when we come off to look down and head straight to the gate.
We did but it wasn't until 2 3 4 steps later the hungry grinning crowds of men would not let us move an inch. She grabbed me and said, to the bathrooms. There's always a lady working there, she will know what to do.
Omg the journey that would have take a minute felt like forever. Being small we tried to be quick between the pocket spaces, heads down. When we reached the bathroom, we literally had to fight hard on those last steps before going in. We told the lady in three bathroom we were scared, and needed to get out. She said that we'd better leave and do it now because it will get more crowded. At that point, the banging on the door of laughing men telling us to come out. The lady told us to fight as hard as we could and to not stop moving forward to the nearest stop.... candy shop, one of the rides, that one of the male workers would help us.
We both made a little prayer, held on tight to eachothers hands and she opened the door, some of the men fell on the floor when she flung the door open. She yelled out loud appealing to their decency that we were only children. The first few at the front smiled in a creepy way and said to her, so let them go the little beauties. We could hear her yelling at them while we both tried to forcefully slide through the bodies blocking the way down the stairs. We were separated, I saw her body being carried like a prize above their heads, we both screamed out to each other. I remember her saying bite scratch kick!!! And all I could do was crouch down on the stairs crying looking and pleading to them please please please we want to go home please.
They all laughed 😔 I was carried over a sea of bodies, hands hands hands everywhere. A sea of hands.it was horrible. And the laughter. Hands and laughter, the image and sounds I can never forget. There was no mercy to be found in any. I was 11 😔
Chen Chen you can’t specific Muslim men. Tourist, Coptics, and other groups have done it.
I'm so sorry this happened to you and your cousin. And glad you survived it somehow, shows you are a strong, courageuous fighter. I hope you get out of this horrible country/place where this happened. Hope you are safe. These laws and governments and unhelpful police and evil men really need to change! They have no right to do any of this.
Furious Angel but you cant deny the fact, that harrassment and raping women happened to the muslim country, im really confused becoz like u said islam forbids such disgusting act, but mostly men who practice islam is the one who do this to women.. like in india,pakistan, aghfanistan, and other muslim dominating country. Like this men are tellimg, they harrass the women who are not covering there body?? This men are ignorant, they forget that there mother is a women.. i’be been watching rape cases documentary here in you tube, the women abuse by muslim men.. its really sad that if islam a good religion, but this action towards women, is sick my question is, theres a lot of islam/muslim in the world, why islam members tolerate this kind of behavior?? This people should be kick out in islam..
kosar bennie hah which countries that are modern? This happens in all countries. In Indo the main cause of rape are gang bangs by Hindus ( not being offensive ). Pakistan is a third world country so rape will happen. What about USA where the highest amount of rape happens in the world per capita.
Barbara G. Pls tell me which Quran Surah and Hadith? I’m begging to know. Otherwise don’t spew none sense.
Parents have to teach children about respect and self control
That doesn't happen it's a society that blames females only when these men are responsible men usually "do whatever they want"
Siân But first, they need to teach themselves that. Men in their fifties are doing these things too. Disgusting, and shameful.
a yuding need uzi there
Islam is to blame for this behavior. Do some research.
E. Lin When you provide an opposing claim, please back it up with evidence. Disclose it all to me, what about sexual assault and rape is influenced by Islam? When Islam takes very seriously the honor and protection of women, and the Quran repeatedly reminds men to treat women with kindness and fairness. During the lifetime of the Prophet Muhammad, a rapist was punished based on only the testimony of the victim. Wa'il ibn Hujr reported that a woman publicly identified a man who had raped her. The people caught the man and brought him to the Prophet Muhammad. He told the woman to go-*that she was not to be blamed*-and ordered that the man be put to death. If you probe more into the matter, you’d realize it’s merely you taking things out of their intended context. Review your own self, I’m still waiting for the missing evidence.
Thanks for getting this information out to the world
Egypt is a country I‘ll never visit again. Not only woman are treated badly, the animal abuse in this country is crazy.
Yup I noticed they are especially cruel to animals
Always wanted to go to Egypt but now i never will .... Way too many sick men

if your country is accepting refugees you will be living in egypt very soon. the UN recently announces millions of new refugees

And who is causing these refugees problems?
Don't be played by media, if you can't see the truth, find it. If you can't find it then find someone who can help you to find the truth.

Amazing documentary, quite brave because this is dangerous- my fullest respect and love to all those women out there trying to do the right thing !
Notice how Buddhist countries like Thailand don't have these problems, whereas a religiously repressed Muslim country always has pent up sexual issues? Other women are free to wear nice things and don't get disturbed in civilized countries.
You don't know shit about Thailand..
It used to be my dream to visit Egypt but now....Im heartbroken
Me too
Agreed. I wanted to see egypt as im very interested in Egyptology but this puts me off massively. Also thinking about it, if so many of us dont go we wont be putting money into the hands leading up to the Egyptian government who im guessing is run by men who supports the idea of rape.
If they keep treating women like shit and we know about it, they will lose a lot of tourists in the making too. They better sort out their act.
Yesh i thought egypt would be a cool country and now i see the truth its not
@@LindaEll89 ☹ thats horrible
@Samira Hussen at least force ur 1 cell brain to elaborate some comprehensive sentences, u ltrly can't understand a dck of what u trynna say BITCH !!!
This is beyond disgusting. I just hope these women will be safe and protected by the law.
Which law ? There is no law in this country, harassers, rapers are obviously and sadly protected.
@@TheSalsaMoney Seems like this is our sad truth.
The male interviewee openly reflected the thoughts of many Egyptian men. I recently read a book from a HongKong Phd about men and women in Egypt. That book also describes the extreme lack of fairness for women.
This is the sign of a morally corrupt society.
This is why the "modesty" thing is very bad it gives men the idea that they have the right to harass any women who doesn't meet their standards
The modesty thing is really good, just some mens think they can do whetever they want🤦♀️
@@user-su8xw6kx9zno it's not good, you shouldn't have to be modest to be respected as a human. And its alot more than "some" men
@@sunb678 you also don't have to leave this thing called modesty to be respected by men. Uncultured men are the problem who sadly could be found everywhere. At some places they are called out for their actions, at others they are excused or protected for just being men.
@@sunb678 Ok so be naked then or dress like a harlot to see if thats better.
@@user-su8xw6kx9zno it’s not. Dress can’t make someone modest
The world is a scary place for women.
Defintely im muslim countries
Vladimir Putin it’s not for men
Even we admit it
Just stop making yourself a victim
Vladimir Putin and it is true
No sex out of marriage in Islam
As well as no touching and no looking
Does anyone care? No
Because if a women is underdressed, you are apparently allowed to look, which is absolutely not true
Even men can also be underdressed, and women should also lower their gazes
Because it says in the Quran for both genders to lower their gaze
So no, it’s dangerous for women
Ask as many smart men as you want, it’s true, as men can protect themselves
Vladimir Putin, it's not forbidden to have sex with someone who isn't married, i forget where either the quran or the hadiths say it's ok as long as the woman is paid.
It shouldn't be!
I wish you all the strengh of the world to continue fighting for your human rights! I'm shocked by the circumstances in Egypt and impressed by the power of egyptian women. May you be free to be yourself one day. Blessings from Germany! ❤️✌️

Me too. Lol
Poppy Wolf so the u.s is off limits too 🤣
Its not the county its the fact that religion over takes the law
pearl nuri as a teenage Egyptian I can say that you can definitely visit Egypt now, this documentary was filmed around 2013/2014 when the country was in a very unstable place and there were problems all over; while now I won’t say it’s 100% safe or that there no longer is any harassment but it’s much better than it appears in this video, yes we still need to work on it but it shouldn’t stop you from coming if you REALLY want to come
Visiting a country and living in it are 2 different things. In addition to that, harassment isn't just an egyptian problem. Its your choice, but I won't change my decision to go to Egypt because of 1 video.The same way that I go to Mexico in spite of the cartels. If anything ill just take precaution and carry some sort of small weapon.
Yet another country on the 'avoid' list if I am travelling alone. God speed to the women living there...
Thank you so much for exposing reality 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I'm so blessed to live in a country that we don't have to cover up like we don't exist to not provoke an attack from men or be followed around .My heart goes out to these ladies.
Its a blessing right!
Lol everywhere there is rape culture open your eyes
Oh it's coming to your country with open borders. Just look at what is happening to Europe by being enriched by these cultures...

What a sick culture. Those men had a mother, sisters, some maybe daughters. How can anyone behave like that without thinking of your own flesh and blood?
It’s the culture there. I’ve met women that have escaped from Muslim countries and I can’t believe how it is so engrained into their culture
Has nothing to do with being muslim
So I'm Egyptian, but I rarely visit. After an 11 year stay in the USA, my family decided to take a trip back. Let me tell you, the amount of sexism I encountered was nuts. For instance, we went to the police station in order to get our IDs done. As my mother was taking out her own for identity purposes, the security guard started screaming and yelling at her saying, "How dare you take out your ID before your husband!". I know fucking ridiculous, my mom was honestly too shocked to talk back, so we all just played it cool to not get in a fight. That station also had two lines, one male and the other female. When I asked my mother why, she said that it's to prevent women from getting sexually harassed. The fact that this is common enough for them to do that is mind boggling, but I won't say I'm surprised.
Pigs🐷🐽
Egypt is no more a place to love and respect.
Stay strong sisters! Fight, Fight, Fight for your rights until you are Free!

Stay away from Islam

I've never seen anything like this. . . how can a society fall into such decadence! This is not merely women being sexually harassed, but Egypt disrobed.
These women are so incredibly brave, I am really impressed and saddened at the same time...
"Their is no pleasure in touching a girl, it's more like a way of punishing her". Punishing her because she's woman. Sick men.
Is it safe to assume that if a woman was able to defend herself(with a weapon or other means) she would be imprisoned and not the man/men?
Will his family take revenge that is the real question?
Egyptian here. Yes it is.
Of course the misogynistic society will blame the woman for everything and unfortunately including other women tend to support men
This just makes my blood boil! I’m so grateful to be born in America and these things just don’t happen here, it’s just nonstop for these poor women. My prayers are with them 🙏

It happens even in America unfortunately. You may not have experienced sexual harassment but I know women here in America who have.
As a man myself i feel deeply sorry for the Egyptian ladies and all over the world who has suffered from Sexual Assault and rape. These men should be ashamed of themselves and should be punished. I can't even believe that even when you wear a niqab they even try it. I don't blame the victims by using weapons to defend themselves.
