Abstract

Nezaželena spolna pozornost vključuje fizične in verbalne oblike spolnih poseganj, ki jih oseba, ki jih je deležna, zaznava kot neprijetne ali ogrožujoče. Namen magistrske naloge je pridobiti vpogled v izkušnje mladih žensk z nezaželeno spolno pozornostjo v nočnem življenju v Sloveniji. V empiričnem delu naloge je bilo izvedenih enajst polstrukturiranih intervjujev. Analiza rezultatov pokaže, da sogovornice v vseh okoljih nočnega življenja pri nas pogosto doživljajo nezaželeno spolno pozornost, in sicer s strani (cisspolnih, heteroseksualnih) moških. Zaradi pojavnosti ta predstavlja običajen in pričakovan del nočnega življenja, obenem pa negativno vpliva na njihovo čustveno stanje. Za zagotavljanje večje varnosti se poslužujejo individualnih in/ali kolektivnih varnostnih strategij, ki omejujejo njihovo svobodno udejstvovanje v nočnem življenju. K pojavnosti nezaželene spolne pozornosti prispevajo predvsem značilnosti prizorišč, učinki substanc ter tam prisotna (ospoljena) pričakovanja glede vedenja, objektifikacija in seksualizacija žensk. Ob incidentih se odzivajo na različne, pasivne ali aktivne, načine, ki se navadno stopnjujejo z vztrajnostjo nezaželenega vedenja. Ostali mimoidoči in zaposleni na prizoriščih ob tem redko ali sploh ne posredujejo, kar prispeva k nizki stopnji ne le zaupanja v varnostno osebje oz. institucije, temveč tudi iskanja njihove pomoči ob incidentih. Sogovornice bi se v nočnem življenju počutile varneje, če bi prizorišča aktivno preprečevala nezaželeno spolno pozornost – jo prepoznala, opazila in ob pojavu ustrezno posredovala. Za ustvarjanje varnejše izkušnje v nočnem življenju pa je pomembna tudi splošna ozaveščenost o dinamikah nezaželenih spolnih vedenj in spolni neenakosti, prisotnih v družbi.

Secondary title:	Unwanted sexual attention in nightlife – experiences of young women in Slovenia
Secondary abstract:	Unwanted sexual attention encompasses both physical and verbal forms of sexually intrusive behavior that individuals perceive as distressing or threatening. The aim of the master’s thesis is to gain a deeper understanding of the experiences of young women with unwanted sexual attention in nightlife environments in Slovenia. In the empirical phase of this study, we conducted eleven semi-structured interviews. The analysis of the findings shows that participants experience unwanted sexual attention from (cisgender, heterosexual) men in all nightlife environments. This behavior is often regarded as a normal and anticipated aspect of nightlife, yet it negatively impacts their emotional well-being. To ensure their safety, they employ individual and/or collective safety strategies, which constrain their ability to freely participate in nightlife. Several factors contribute to the occurrence of unwanted sexual attention, including the characteristics of the venue, the effects of substances, and the (gendered) expectations concerning behavior, as well as the objectification and sexualization of women. In response to incidents, they react in various, passive or active, ways, which escalate when the unwanted behavior persists. Bystanders and venue staff rarely intervene or do not intervene, fostering a low level of trust in security personnel and institutions, dissuading individuals from seeking assistance when incidents occur. Participants would feel safer in night environments where venues take proactive measures to prevent unwanted sexual attention, such as recognizing and promptly addressing it when it occurs. Additionally, raising general awareness about the dynamics of unwanted sexual behavior and the existing gender inequalities within society proves crucial in creating a safer nightlife experience.
