It all started on Sunday with a tweet from American actor Alyssa Milano. She wrote that women who have experienced sexual harassment or assault should leave the message Me Too on social media.

Milano wrote, Suggestion by a friend: If all women who have been sexually harassed or assaulted wrote Me too as a status, we might give people a sense of the magnitude of the problem.
