If you are a woman living in Cairo, chances are you have been sexually harassed. It happens on the streets, on crowded buses, in the workplace, in schools, and even in a doctor's office, CNN reports.

According to a 2008 survey of 1,010 women conducted by the Egyptian Center for Women's rights, 98% of foreign women and 83% of Egyptian women have been sexually harassed. Why is sexual harassment in Egypt so rampant? There could be any number of reasons, but many point to disregard for human rights. Before the uprising, Nehad Abu el Komsan, the director for the Center for Women's Rights, said that Egypt was more interested in political than public security. She said that often meant that officials focused more on preventing political unrest than addressing social ills. （点击CNN网站查看原文）

埃及妇女遭性骚扰达83%

       据美国有线电视新闻网报道，居住在埃及开罗的女性经常会在不同场合遭受性骚扰，如街道、拥挤的公车上、工作场所、学校，甚至在医生办公室。

       2008年，埃及妇女权利中心针对性骚扰现象对1010名妇女进行的一项调查显示，在受访的外国女性中，有98％的人表示在埃及期间曾受到性骚扰，而有83%的埃及女性有过性骚扰的遭遇。为何埃及性骚扰这么猖獗？其实有很多原因，但最重要的是漠视人权。在埃及暴动前，埃及妇女权利中心主席尼哈德·阿布·阿勒·库桑称，埃及是一个重政治权利大于民众安全的国家。这就是说官员的精力主要放在防止政治骚乱上，而不是放在解决社会问题上。
