After a long hot summer month of Ramadan, Egypt's Muslims are celebrating Eid El-Fitr with open air prayers, dressing up, going out in the streets and public parks. In a country with high rates of sexual harassment like Egypt, the majority of celebrators are young men in groups, while females prefer staying in.

“The reason for most of my female friends that they don’t hang out on Eid is because either they got sexually harassed on a day like today or they heard a story that made them scared to go out," said Somaya, 24.
