Joyce Carol Oates
@JoyceCarolOates Thanks for comments! In areas of NYC with which I'm most familiar the atmosphere seems different, but I could be wrong.
Isn't harassment of women walking alone in urban areas--(as men do freely & without incident)--a matter of neighborhoods? In NYC, certainly.

@JoyceCarolOates Wall Street is particularly problematic. I know because I've worked there. -
@JoyceCarolOates Absolutely not. I was harassed in a small Mich. town as a teen with my mom & have been in all the "best" areas of NYC. -
.
@JoyceCarolOates I would disagree. I've had businessmen in the Financial District murmur strange things at me before. -

.
@JoyceCarolOates Definitely not. I've been harassed in every kind of neighborhood. The worst experience I ever had was in a MD suburb. - View other replies

@carmenmmachado@JoyceCarolOates someone told me she'd been attacked in rich & poor areas; difference was, in rich areas nobody helps you

@JoyceCarolOates No, in NYC, certainly NOT. Your ignorance is showing. -
@NadxiNieto@JoyceCarolOates Her classism, and possibly racism, too. -
@ReeAmilcarScott@JoyceCarolOates Yep. All these classist, racist ladies are dwindling my Read Women list. Sigh. -
@NadxiNieto@JoyceCarolOates naw, I'll still read 'em. If I can still read Naipaul, who is much worse, I can still read Oates. -
@ReeAmilcarScott@JoyceCarolOates Yeah, I miss the old days when I didn't know sooooo many literary heroes were assholes. -
@ReeAmilcarScott@JoyceCarolOates Also, twitter is not doing a lot of these folks any favors.
