ABSTRACT
Scholars have posited that street harassment shapes women’s embodiment in ways that delimit their freedom and capacity to act in and on the world. In this chapter, I examine the ways in which this embodiment is fundamentally intertwined with navigation of space. Drawing on research conducted with women and LGBTQ+ Australians, I examine the impacts of public harassment on their navigation of and movement through space, though these geographies were also partial, contingent, emerging, and resisted. In closing, I argue that transforming these embodied geographies must be taken up as a mechanism for achieving justice in relation to street harassment.
