The Everyday Sexism Project is celebrating their third anniversary by asking people to share their stories with the #EverydaySexism hashtag. Here’s what the conversation looks like on Twitter.
"I started [the Everyday Sexism Project] after experiencing several incidents in a short space of time — being followed home by a man propositioning me and refusing to take no for an answer, being aggressively sexually harassed in public, and being groped on the bus," the 28-year-old told BuzzFeed.
Bates felt shocked when she realized that if the incidents had been spread out, she wouldn't have thought twice about them.
"It forced me to realize how much I had become accustomed to simply putting up with just because it was part of 'being a woman,'" she said.
