How safe is Syria for women?

Damascus

Harassment in public places and transportation is a really big issue here so make sure to always be careful walking around, also watch for your stuff stealing hand bags from women is very common, even golden necklaces and earrings aren't really advised because if someone thought they were real gold they might rip it off your neck/ear
