“There may even be a report on 'Eve-teasing' (sexual harassment of women), but nothing on Adam-teasing.”

“They ignored men outside the premises of the school, but within its protective precincts they indulged in a bit of Adam-teasing.”

“Hardly surprising, then, that the first time I witnessed 'Adam teasing' , I nearly whooped with joy. There, trundling along Aurobindo Marg, came an autorickshaw packed with the loudest, most outrageous women I'd ever seen. […] The auto careened to a stop and out they spilled, surrounding some poor hapless chap, wiggling their hips at him, pinching his bum, their eyes flashing, tossing their proud manes, daring him to flirt back.”
