Women’s safety has always been a concern. In spite of globalization and technical advancement, today societies need to address the notion of gender disparity in it. There still exists discrimination based on gender; be it workplace, educational institutions, armed forces or even sometimes at public places. Women are not given the equal rights and opportunities as available of men. These small uncooperative working environments against women create a negative narrative at workplace. At times, they have to face outrage from men. There have been cases that are seen in which women are asked for sexual favours in return of keeping their job or position of seeking for promotion. But are these all reported? Does the society acknowledge their stories of harassment and believe them or they are just mocked down? It showed that women even in powerful positions were afraid for so long to come out with their stories. Me too movement emerged on social media in recent years. This movement gives voice to women to come forward and speak up if they have suffered or survived sexual harassment at workplace. It gives them a platform to speak their stories. Me too movement is also about fighting for the dignity and humanity of survivors of sexual harassment. The number of people that came up and have become victims of sexual harassment itself speaks for the magnitude of the issue and why it needs to be addressed.
