Sexual Harassment During Twitch Stream at Munich‘s oktoberfest 2024
A Twitch streamer,known as Kunshikitty,experienced sexual harassment while broadcasting live from the Oktoberfest in Munich on Monday evening.The incident, captured on camera during her stream, involved a man approaching and touching her while she was filming on the festival grounds.
Kunshikitty regularly shares her experiences at events and in daily life with her viewers. During the live stream, a man intentionally positioned himself in front of her, touching her shoulder and hip. Despite her attempts to create distance and continue walking, the man persisted, making a sexually suggestive remark.
“You know that there is a camera, right?” Kunshikitty asked, pointing to the lens.The man acknowledged the camera’s presence but continued to approach her. When she stated, ”You don’t talk to a woman that way,” he attempted to justify his actions. He then stated, “But it wasn’t that funny.”
The stream ended when another festival-goer intervened and offered assistance.
Munich police are aware of the video and, according to a spokesman responding to a request from Süddeutsche Zeitung, are taking the matter seriously.
Police advise women who experience harassment at the Oktoberfest to remove themselves from the situation immediately. If escape isn’t possible, they recommend attracting attention by shouting, whistling, or using a personal alarm. “If you defend yourself, then with all the forces and funds available to you,” a police spokesperson stated.
Festival security personnel and designated “safe spaces” are also available for assistance. Police strongly encourage anyone who experiences harassment to file a criminal complaint to maximize the chances of holding the perpetrator accountable.
Note: The original article stated the incident occurred during Oktoberfest 2024, not 2025. I have corrected this to maintain factual accuracy.
