This video  is about Nicole , a mexican woman reporting to the mexican authorities in Mexico City that a man in the apartment building in front of hers has been harrassing her, masturbating in his window while peeping into her apartment, calling her attention while he masturbated in his parking lot where she could see him, also verbally harrassing her comenting on her physical appearance when she goes out. The mexican authorities told her that nothing can be done unless he physicly harms her. So what is she supossed to do!? what are we supossed to do!? The comments by men in this video are victim blaming, they tell her that she probably likes it, that it’s her fault, even that she is making it up for attention  because she is ugly( she godammed isn’t), she is noticeably scared and upset. We Mexicans already know that we cannot trust our authorities, but I don’t even… WHAT THE FUCK!!!
