Relaxation lost under your fingertips: reflections triggered by a pedicure
The pace of modern urban life is accelerating, people are burdened with huge work and life pressure, physical and mental exhaustion, so, reflexology as a way to relax and decompress, gradually entered the public eye, on June 8, a foot massage shop incident in Hangzhou, but this should be a relaxing experience, turned into a palpitating nightmare, but also triggered the public for the foot massage industry chaos and women's safety issues deep thinking
A female college student named Xiao Zhou in Hangzhou, because of overwork from part-time work, her feet were sore and unbearable, so she decided to go to a foot massage shop to relax during the Dragon Boat Festival holiday
When relaxation turns into aggression: restore the truth of the incident from the details
According to Xiao Zhou's description, the male technician's words and deeds revealed a trace of unusualness in the process of service, he frequently asked Xiao Zhou's personal situation, his words were full of ambiguity, and his eyes were also uncertain, which made Xiao Zhou feel very uncomfortable, and when the male technician asked Xiao Zhou to take off his socks and prepare for a foot massage, Xiao Zhou found that the male technician actually touched her ankles and calves intentionally or unintentionally, which made her more vigilant
What's even more infuriating is that during the next massage, the male technician's behavior became more and more excessive, he constantly stretched his hand to the root of Xiao Zhou's thigh on the grounds of massaging acupuncture points, and even tried to touch her private parts, although Xiao Zhou made it clear that he refused and tried to avoid the male technician's aggression, but the male technician turned a deaf ear and continued his indecent behavior
The Dilemma of Seeking Justice: How Do We Speak Out in the Face of Abuse?
In the face of the male technician's aggression, Xiao Zhou felt extremely humiliated and angry, she immediately got up and put on her shoes, and contacted the manager of the foot massage shop through WeChat, telling the other party the ins and outs of the matter in detail, hoping that the foot massage shop could give a reasonable explanation and solution
After understanding the situation, the store manager did not show due apology and responsibility, but tried to calm things down, shirking responsibility on the grounds that "the personal behavior of employees has nothing to do with the store", and even hinted that Xiao Zhou "should not make a big fuss"
The Price of Silence: Who Allowed the Violations to Take Place?
Xiao Zhou was very disappointed and angry with the results of the foot massage shop, and she realized that if she chose to remain silent, then the male technician would likely continue to use his position to abuse other female customers, so Xiao Zhou resolutely decided to call the police, hoping to protect her legitimate rights and interests through legal means, and make the male technician pay for his actions
Due to the lack of direct evidence, the police only warned and educated the foot spa shop involved and asked the foot spa shop to strengthen staff management to prevent the recurrence of such incidents
From Case to Reflection: How to Build a Safe Relaxation Space?
In recent years, with the rapid development of the foot therapy industry, various violations of laws and regulations have also emerged, such as: unlicensed operation, worrying health conditions, and service projects involving pornography and so on
Among them, female customers are often more likely to be targeted by criminals, some criminals take advantage of female customers' desire to relax, as well as the relatively private ??, of foot massage places to harass, molest and even sexually assault female customers and other illegal and criminal acts
Breaking the silence and speaking out: the last line of defense to protect our bodies and minds
Xiao Zhou's experience is not unique, in real life, there are still many women who choose to endure in silence in the face of similar violations, which invisibly fuels the arrogance of criminals and puts more women in danger without knowing it
Therefore, we call on the majority of female friends, in the face of infringement, to stand up bravely to say no, to use legal weapons to protect their legitimate rights and interests, we also hope that all sectors of society can strengthen the supervision of the foot therapy industry, improve the quality of practitioners, and jointly create a safe, healthy and orderly foot massage market environment, so that foot therapy can truly become a healthy way for people to relax and enjoy life
Start with me to build a harmonious society: let everyone become a guardian
This incident has also triggered us to think about social responsibility, as an ordinary consumer, how should we choose a formal foot massage place? As a practitioner in the foot massage industry, how should we adhere to professional ethics and protect the legitimate rights and interests of customers? As a bystander, how can we help the victim instead of standing by and not standing by and watching?
Only when each of us raises our awareness of safety, consciously resists illegal acts, and jointly creates a safe and harmonious social environment, can we prevent similar tragedies from happening again, and let everyone enjoy the beauty of life with peace of mind
