She has thankfully not been assaulted, but there have been a couple of dicey situations - I'm not talking about seeing some weirdo on the street a block away, but unwanted, uncomfortable face-to-face interactions.

But that said, a young female colleague of mine was punched in the face - completely unprovoked - on the street just outside our workplace.

Talk to any woman who spends time downtown and you'll hear the stories.
