Getting unwanted messages can be frustrating and invasive. Remember, your mental and emotional well-being is worth protecting, so don't be afraid to take action and report it if they continue even after making it clear that you do not want any contact. #SpeakOutAgainstStalking

Allport's Scale of Prejudice and Discrimination is a measure of the manifestation of prejudice in a society. It was devised by psychologist Gordon Allport in 1954. ORSAS is constantly working to call out and stop behavior like sexist jokes, cat calling, groping, and misogyny.
