Not assaulted for sure, but I did feel pretty uncomfortable at one point on my first outing (see my post in Pictures about my outing in Turkey yesterday). I was at the bus stop and had to walk through a group of about 15 younger guys by myself. They started yelling as I walked past and cat calling. I kept going and ignored them. When I walked back I just walked past them with my head up and didn't make eye contact like they didn't exist and everything was fine, although I was nervous for a moment.

What I did find to be true was that when I was with someone else the comments were far less than when I was alone. That might be a good tip if your nervous.
