Viral Video Starts Discussion on Upskirting and ‘Safety Pants’

• Many Chinese women have started wearing an additional layer of clothing to deter judgmental comments and would-be voyeurs.

 

Quote

A model who was slammed for posing “inappropriately” while onlookers photographed her from behind said Sunday that she was wearing “safety pants” specifically to guard against upskirting, or taking surreptitious photos of women’s underwear.

 

After the video, shot during a Shanghai anime convention over the weekend, went viral on Chinese microblogging platform Weibo, women began posting about the need to wear tight shorts over their undergarments — an accoutrement commonly known as “safety pants.”
