I'm rather bemused that her initial comments got any sort of response at all. Creepy guy hits on girl, girl says essentially "guys please don't do this shit, it's not cool". What on earth is wrong with that? A woman should have the right to say "this creeps me out, don't do it" or "this threatens me, don't do it". And men sure as held should listen.
And why on earth would the way muslim women be treated be remotely relevant? Dawkins' message is akin to telling a black man not to complain about racist treatment because he would have been a slave had he been born 200 years earlier, and his petty complaints just don't compare. It's crass and monumentally silly.
