abstract="This study investigates the role of physical mobility in street harassment by analyzing a stratified random sample of 334 cases posted to Hollaback!, an online community documenting experiences of street harassment. <br><br>FINDINGS suggest that harassers utilize means of transportation as weapons to inflict or threaten physical harm, to escape or preserve anonymity, and to pursue targets and as a hunting ground for potential targets. By identifying the mechanisms of street harassment, we theorize how harassers negotiate mobility-particular types of mobility, especially that which is enabled by public transportation and owner vehicles-to gain advantage over targets of harassment.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
