Iconic photograph often thought to portray the negative experience of women as they walk city streets. Yet the woman photographed, Ninalee Craig, has since said, “At no time was I unhappy or harassed in Europe” and that “[the photograph is] not a symbol of harassment. It’s a symbol of a woman having an absolutely wonderful time!” and “Italian men are very appreciative, and it’s nice to be appreciated. I wasn’t the least bit offended”
You can decide for yourself.
And here is a pretty good blog post (in Portuguese?) that has a bunch of outtakes from that day.
