[Le] «tee-shirt de métro» […] est un vêtement ample porté par les filles pour se couvrir. Ce n'est pas une question de mode, c'est un geste fait à contrecœur, pour ne pas être dérangé. Si elle porte ce [tee-shirt de métro], c'est pour faire fuir les regards, ne pas être harcelée, éviter d'être interpellée, sifflée dans la rue ou dans le métro, voire insultée. 1, record 1, French, - tee%2Dshirt%20de%20m%C3%A9tro
