Mum hits out after catching man taking upskirt photo

One mum has shared her experience of having a man take a photo up her dress, urging other women to speak up if it ever happens to them.

The mum-of-three took to online forum Reddit with the incident, revealing she was out shopping with her young children at Walmart in a “mid thigh length dress” when it happened.

“I was bending over to look at the bottom shelf, and could feel my dress was up too high over my butt,” wrote the mum. “So as I reached back to pull it down, I heard a f*****g camera shutter sound.

“At this point I was in disbelief, and straightened up to see a late 50’s man walking towards the pharmacy with his phone in his hand.

“He was holding it… with an awkward grip and I watched him get in line at the pharmacy, where he tilted his phone up to look at the screen… and enough for me to see the picture of my ass with my dress pattern and black underwear.”

The outraged mum didn’t hesitate to confront the man, asking “Did you just take a picture of me?" only to have him deny it before walking off.

She then alerted staff members and called the store again when she got home to make sure the incident was being followed up.

Worryingly, after security footage of the incident was reviewed, the woman was told that the man had been “stalking her” and followed her around the store before taking the photo.

The mum believes she was targeted because she had three kids in tow, and the sleazy photographer assumed she would be distracted looking after them.

“If this happens in public please don’t hesitate to call these people out about it. Embarrass them. Shame them,” she wrote.

“If my children had not been observing I would have went and taken his phone from him. It was horrible, and I feel extremely violated and disgusted.

“I went shopping, with my children, and a man stalked me because I looked vulnerable and distracted. Because he thought I wouldn’t notice, or that I would be too afraid to call him out.”
