A Veil your lollipop campaign is believed to be the key to stopping harassment on Egyptian streets. However, those of us who actually wander the Egyptian streets know that even veiled girls get harassed, grabbed, touched, and some even get picked up. The most recent famous group harassment occurred on a National Islamic Holiday in Egypt, where all the girls harassed were veiled.

Egyptian harassers do not look for the prettier girl, the more rounded girl, the girl who reveals more, nope, they just look for the girl. As we girls usually joke about it, anything with a vagina goes!

I’m not sure who is behind this campaign, or who is sponsoring it, but i can’t believe they’re actually calling out to women, to bow down to the harasser, and ‘cover up’ to avoid being harassed...The concept that allows anyone to think that a girl is harassed because she is not covered up enough, is just as silly as thinking people get shot because they’re not careful enough!

How about a call out to the harassER rather than the harassed.
