Sharking, a term used to describe the act of men patrolling areas in search of women to harass or solicit, has become a growing concern in many communities. These individuals, often referred to as "pervs on patrol," operate with a sense of impunity, targeting vulnerable women who are out in public spaces. The behavior ranges from verbal harassment to more severe forms of intimidation and assault. The rise of sharking has led to increased fear and anxiety among women, limiting their freedom to move about safely in public.
