Much to the surprise of women victims of a privacy issue called "upskirting" the initial proposal was objected to in Parliament.
Upskirting is an invasion of privacy. Some argue it is nothing more than seeing what can be seen on the beach. That is a gross underestimation of the perverted practice. Women do not wear their underclothes in public. It was shocking to realize a woman's privacy was so degraded within the political realm of the UK.
The practice has transcended age and victims as young as ten years old have been reported.
The "Age of Women" is more than welcome in the year 2019.
Upskirting is the practice of surreptitiously photographing underneath a female's dress or skirt. Upskirting often occurs by voyeurs who carry small video cameras or cell phones with photo capability in escalators in public places, outdoor parks, and shopping malls. Because upskirting occurs in public places, there is a legal debate over whether the victim is entitled to a reasonable expectation of privacy. Some states and localities have passed laws making it illegal to film or photograph under someone's clothing in a public place. Some state laws, which vary by state, have prohibited video voyeurism, which is defined to include upskirting.
