We're scared to go out at night alone and short skirts mean unwanted sexual attention: Parisian women reveal safety fears after gang-rape of Australian tourist and say sex attack is 'catastrophic' to France's image days before Olympics

The horrifying attack on an Australian tourist in Paris last weekend is just the latest alleged gang rape on the streets of the French capital.

In the wake of the shocking news, Parisian women have revealed their safety fears, while police have voiced concerns in the run up to the Olympics.

Following the brutal attack which has sent shockwaves through the city, MailOnline spoke to several women in Pigalle. The recurring response was one of disbelief and horror - and concern about the safety of being out on the city's streets after dark.

Aurelia Desnot, a 21-year-old student, said: 'The rape of that poor young woman on Friday night has been catastrophic to the image of France. I would not go out late at night on my own in this area because I don't want to put myself in danger.

'There are always men hanging around late at night watching women,' she warned.

'When I go out, I go prepared. I know which route I am going on and I know how I am going to get home. And me and my friends check on each other to make sure we have got home safely.'


A woman, 25, sought refuge in a Paris kebab shop after being brutally raped by five men at around 5am. But just moments later, one of the woman's (blurred on the far left of image) alleged rapists (circled) approached her before 'patting her'

As the home of the internationally renowned Moulin Rouge cabaret club, Pigalle, attracts tens of thousands of tourists every day - but it is also home to seedy sex shops and massage parlours.

Despite the area's liberal attitude towards sex, woman feel like they have to cover up or face unwanted attention from men in the area.

mohammed was a rapist, and the “perfect” man in islam one is required to emulate.

What could possibly go wrong inviting 10% of the population of muslims in (so far)?

What they are wearing has nothing to do with it.

They’re being raped because of who the rapists are, not because of anything they did.

It’s both. Modern women’s clothes attract the weak and unstable men being released from the jails and the public school system.
