can there be less exaggeration please?

"The sexual harassment of women in the streets, schools and work places of the Arab world is driving them to cover up and confine themselves to their homes, said activists at the first-ever regional conference addressing the once taboo topic." Yes, there is a problem: and it is not unique to the Arab world. I live in a country where 23 women are killed by men on average per week, and we can't say that women are staying home because of that. (thanks Ali)
