There are areas in the UK you dare not walk as a girl/woman. I lived in Birmingham growing up and there is a lovely park there called Small Heath Park. Even in the 1970s my sister and I could not walk through it without being touched or surrounded by them, the stories from other girls were disgusting. Also in the Bull Ring Shopping Centre, in the centre of Birmingham, there was an overhead corridor of about 50 indoor shops linking to other shops called the Palisades - This was a definite no go area, they would hang around in gangs , you were metal if you even thought of walking across after about midday. Not a single speck of respect for a teen girl, it was a free for all. Since this was happening in the the 1970s goodness knows what its like now! Birmingham is, I think, the largest as.ian community in the UK now. This video says a lot. https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/local-news/british-white-people-set-become-14830628 - And this is Small Heath Park nowadays: https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/whats-on/whats-on-news/gallery/eid-ul-fitr-2018-celebrations-14787735

Yep. It's the same in London, there are areas you can't even go in broad daylight when you're a white woman.
