Women in Manchester have spoken out about a number of “insidious” incidents involving a man watching porn and ‘getting off’ on their reactions taking place on buses and trams in the city.
The Manchester Evening News has spoken to six women who all say they have been targeted by this man, in a period of time stretching from November 2021 to last week.
All the women gave consistent accounts of how the man would sit in front of them, positioning his phone in such a way that meant they could not help but see the videos, and play pornographic content that became increasingly more and more explicit, while either looking behind him or viewing their reactions in the reflection of his phone screen - potentially even recording them. Two of the women reported that he either appeared to be, or was actively, touching himself during the incident.
