To be honest, I wasn't even aware this was still happening. I thought cat-calling went out of style around 1989 along with hair metal.
 
Well then guilty as charged. You are right, I do think women should try a different method to deal with this "issue". I don't think, or more so understand, why other women find it so offensive. I did say it should stop. In my opinion, I think people make far too big of a deal out of it as a whole, which in my opinion only adds to it's offensiveness, whereas I feel if women would just ignore it, no you can't have any, or please stop, or that's not nice, or fucking something, when the act is occurring, maybe that would work to change it.

And look I am expressing my opinion, and you are arguing with my opinion, trying to invalidate it, you are doing the same shit you are accusing me of. Do you see me forcing my opinion on anyone? no. I am simply expressing myself. so lay off.
I get it, you don't agree with me, that is fine, no need to twist my words and continue arguing with me.

. Lol. This story is everywhere. Every time I look at the tv, it's in my face like a man on a NYC sidewalk.
 
You know, there is a WAR on women :lmao:

Step one, stop listening to cable news (which is actually entertainment television, not news)
 
It's like bitches can't even pullup at Walgreens anymore to pick up their meds and not be hit on by some tatted up creep and have to just sit there and TAKE IT when all he wants you to do is TAKE IT.

Basically women have become gazelles in today's society at the mercy of the all powerful lion men.

. You got that right. But I do not routinely watch any cable news. I have seen it on GMA, ABC nightly news, CBS and NBC. I can only assume it's all over FOX and CNN as well.
 
I'll be honest, I'm a little offended I haven't been hit on by a thuggish brute. I mean, I have pretty nice legs.

. :lmao: I wondered if my zeal had been tainted by that incident
It did help me empathize a bit.
 
My whole point here was A. I don't think a female should let something like this bother as much as it does. and B. what good does whining about it do, say something, tell the men doing it you don't like it. You'd think they know better by now, but they don't.
Not to mention, not all men catcall. not all towns are like that.
 
One time at a family party my brother-in-law's drunk mom kept hitting on me, saying how I had such a beautiful voice, like Jian Ghomeshi's.

:mrquincy:

The evening got uncomfortable but I didn't cry or write a pontificating blog post about it.

I don't subscribe to the theory that using politically correct terminology or feigning politeness will bring positive change on bigger issues. In fact it inhibits change by filtering genuine desires in people to fight injustice and focusing them on nonsense (loosely related to actual problems).

When it comes to feelings... they are nice to have. Doesn't mean they are right or legit. Some feelings can be developed through manipulation. When a person understands the manipulation she may change her feelings.
 
2 minute video for 10 hours of walking. Another drama queen.

I was called "sexy legs" by a bunch of school girls - must be at least 14 years younger than me. All I could think was to get the hell out of there and avoided that spot for a few days.

It's an intrusion and I could see where most women would find it offensive at the very least. The guy who was following her was creepy to say the least. I was waiting for the mace to come out.
 
This had turned into quite an interesting read.

Some of you act like you have never given a hand job to get out of a bad situation
