英议员称出租车应低价搭载衣着暴露女性以保证其安全

发布时间:2019-09-02  编辑:查字典英语网小编

英国埃塞克斯郡布伦特伍德市议员克里斯•霍塞克称,出租车司机应对衣着暴露的女性降低收费以帮助她们安全到家。他认为,现在的年轻女孩喜欢模仿蹩脚真人秀“The Only Way Is Esssex”里面的明星,而这样也就随时把自己置于“性骚扰”的危险之下。霍塞克表示,出租车公司应当承担起“社会责任”,以低收费的方式帮助这些女孩子平安回家,避免被侵犯。

不过,他的观点被受害者团体所谴责。受害者后援团的一名发言人表示,受害者的穿着或行为都不能成为受到侵害的理由。霍塞克先生则坚称,真人秀“The Only Way Is Esssex”的风靡使得女孩子衣着更加“挑逗”,这部真人秀已经对社会产生了影响。许多年轻女性去商店大量购置衣物,而只是为了使自己在夜晚看起来更有魅力。

TAXIS should give "scantily clad girls" cheaper taxi fares to help them get home safely, a UK councillor says.

Chris Hossack, a councillor in Brentwood in the UK's Essex, says young women who are trying to emulate the stars of trashy reality show The Only Way Is Esssex are putting themselves "potentially at risk of being sexually assaulted".

Mr Hossack has called on taxi companies to show “social responsibility” and offer cheaper fares to women so they can get home without being attacked, This Is Total Essex reports.

But his remarks have been criticised by victims groups as blaming the victim.

"It must always be remembered that a victim is just that," said a spokesperson for Victim Support. "It should never be suggested that a victim makes themselves open to a crime because of what they wear or how they act."

Mr Hossack said the popularity of The Only Way is Essex has encouraged girls to dress more "provocatively".

"Has TOWIE made an impact? I think it has," he said. "They come down to buy clothes from their shops and wear them on the night trying to make themselves look more attractive."
