I think hijab is not the solution, but the thing is girls should not expose rather ware a descent dress . and the most important thing is boys should change their behavior to the girls.

sushmita:
I strongly agree with Nahid apu because at the advancement of technology and time, girls of 21st century, fall in more problems what they were not victim-ed before. I mean with the advancement of technology girls become much more victim virtually, physically, mentally and emotionally. So it requires much more time, counseling,encouragement, nourishment to our girl children. We should let them knew the way of survival with utmost courage, honor and strength.

There has been contrasting school of thoughts about incidents of eve teasing. Some traditionalists blame it on females saying they provoke the culprits by wearing suggestive dresses. They recommend old-fashioned dresses for women. However, going by the records; it is hard to prove that conservatively dressed women have not gone through eve teasing. School girls, college going students, working women etc regularly go through humiliating comments by the unruly men. Eve teasing can leave a permanent psychological scar on women.
The structure of our society has always been male dominated. But in the modern era, women tried to break the centuries of shackles by venturing into male dominated areas. Last century witnessed number of initiatives and path breaking steps taken by the females. Today, women stand head to head with males when it comes to performance and equality. However, with wave of women empowerment came new set of problems. When the women started to venture on their own without male escorts, they made themselves vulnerable to public glares.
Eve teasing is a menace that has grown to alarming proportions. Not many cities are considered safe for women, we have  to ensure the safety of working women and students. Eve teasing is a huge issue in many places. It depicts incidents of public sexual harassment, street harassment or molestation of women by men. These disturbing incidents usually take place in public transport, streets, offices and public places and sometimes in educational organization.
One study shows that 35 percent of the eve teasers are anti-socials, 32 percent are students and 33 percent of eve teasers belong to middle age. Large numbers of females in metropolitan cities are carrying deterrents to protect themselves. Many others are taking self-defence classes. Though the judiciary and government are taking stringent actions against eve teasers but statistics do not show any real improvement.
In last year it has become a night mere especially when we focus on the incidents occured realting to eve teasing.so far I can recall on Kurbani Eid 's morning ( 17th Nov 1020  may be) one maternal grand father was killed when he protested against eve teasing which was going on with his grand daughter.On which edge we BD ppl are living?
