If you really want space on public transport you should carry some pornography from the 1970s and a pair of children's safety scissors, then delicately cut out all the eyes of the glamour models whilst whistling. Every now and again mutter, 'Why are women more beautiful when they are eyeless?' You will be able to stretch out, though this can have ramifications such as ending up on a police list or being run out of town. Robin Ince
About This Quote

We all know that the world is not a safe place for women, and we can see daily proof of this in the media. We never feel safe walking the streets and we certainly worry when we go out with our children. However, these concerns do not mean that we should stop living our lives and that we should live in fear. We need to focus on what we can do to improve these situations.

Some people believe that we should focus on changing society, but this is a hopeless task. Instead, it is up to us to change ourselves so that society changes with us. By doing this, we will have a better chance at being able to enjoy our lives without worrying about being attacked every time we leave the house.
