Juhi Nondi, a 20-year-old college student, takes the train every day to and from school here, toting a satchel of textbooks and looking stylish in her skinny jeans and T-shirts─and long, sharp fingernails. 朱希?侬迪(Juhi Nondi)是一名20岁的大学女生，她每天都要提着一个书包乘火车在加尔各答郊区的巴拉萨特(Barasat)和学校之间往返。她穿着紧身牛仔裤和T恤衫，外型时尚，而且还留着锋利的长指甲。 'They're not just for fashion,' she says of her pink nails, 'but also for self-defense.' 她在谈到自己的粉色指甲时说道：“留着它们不只是为了时尚，也为了保护自己。” Aggressive sexual harassment is a daily part of her commute in this bustling suburb of Kolkata. A man grabbed her breast one morning, she says. Another day, someone grabbed her hip. Friends carry chili powder, she says, to throw in the eyes of an assailant, a sort of homemade pepper spray. 极具侵犯性的性骚扰成为了她在喧闹的巴拉萨特坐火车往返学校的日常组成部分。她说有一天早晨一名男子袭击了她的胸部，还有一天被人捏了臀部。她的朋友们会携带辣椒粉，将一种自制的辣椒喷雾喷进袭击者的眼中。 'If I'm even a half-hour late coming home, my parents panic,' Ms. Nondi says. 她说：“哪怕我只晚了半个小时到家，我的父母就会很恐慌。” |
