Women across the world have one thing in common – they have been sexually harassed at least once in their lifetime. From being touched inappropriately to receiving sexually explicit texts and pictures online from random strangers on the internet, uncountable women have to go through uncomfortable experiences on a day-to-day basis. Here’s an example.
A woman named Hira Saeed took to Twitter to share screenshots she received from a random guy on Instagram. He first sent her an unsolicited picture of his genitals, a.k.a a dick pic, and then when she called him out on social media by sharing a screenshot, he texted her saying that it was a ‘personal matter’ and that she should take the screenshots down.
Hira also shared the screenshots on Twitter and as her tweet went viral, she started receiving hate for exposing the guy. Some other men started sending her dick pics and messages filled with abuse. Here’s a look:
TW:
Was having a very normal Monday morning until a random guy on Instagram decided to send me a d++k pic. My heartbeat is racing and I am unable to regulate my anger now. pic.twitter.com/CMFHpbNgdj

He is now messaging me on Twitter saying its personal matter. What a dumb imbecile pic.twitter.com/j42aWdEnOo
— Hira (@HiraSaeed__) June 12, 2023
She then made it clear that she will not delete her tweet and also revealed that she messaged the guy’s employer.
I will not delete my tweet and I have already emailed his employer. I cannot believe some sickos see a different side of THIS story. Dude the only other side to his d++k is his ahole which some of you are acting like.

What was really appalling to see was how people supported the guy instead. Many called him a “kid”, and asked Hira not to ruin his career and some even suggested that his account might be hacked.
There seems to be something else out there. I do believe he’s a kid & most probably, he really didn’t do it. Seems to be a student who’ll soon look for a job!
Plz reconsider this post as this will make rounds on SM now and most probably would impact his access to job opps!…— Zeeshan (@theOntarianGuy) June 13, 2023
hmmm
not a good idea to publicly shame him, costing him his career/family/etc.
Report that account instead.
Sometimes, accounts are hacked too or impersonating with someone’s pic for the objective to ruin the real victim’s life.

Aunty his account it seems was hacked otherwise why will some teenager be sending pics to someone twice his age 🤷

The account has been deleted now, makes sense! But I was able to capture a part of his tweet! pic.twitter.com/qsuBUA8P7Y

On the bright side, many came to the woman’s support and reasoned that if his account in fact was hacked, then messages of keeping the incident a “personal matter” wouldn’t have been sent to her. They lauded the woman for speaking up against the guy as soon as the incident happened.
Here’s a look at some of the responses:
Such people should NOT have a career, if they harass random women online, God knows what they would do to women working with them, or even worse, working under them.
Their careers are NOT above women safety— ~~ (@_IamAGypsy) June 13, 2023
Yeah exactly keep such matters private so the such people are encouraged to repeat this behavior. And cherry on top if she decides to speak later on hum bolenge ha bhai pehle to maze le rhi thi ab kiya hua?

Love how all men are scared in the comments and asking you to delete this lol. Aese harkat karne se pehle nae socha tha
So proud of you for doing this and I’m so sorry that you had to see that— not ishal (@AmranIshal) June 13, 2023
Someone whose account was hacked will act totally different. He wouldn’t text you on another social platform and say ye personal matter hai. He would rather explain himself k account hacked hai. “Hack” is probably a tactic to get away. More chances are he was never hacked.

It’s simply unbelievable how someone is trying to advocate him and give him silly ideas, lol. First, he said it’s a personal matter and then suddenly posted that his account was hacked? Wow. As if we all are babies here. Allah sab ko hidayat dai.

Those who are asking for the other side of the story even after reading his reply where he said it’s a personal matter have done the same. No other explanation.

Some people really have the audacity to act like this and think that they can get away with anything!
