Y U NO BAN THIS PERSON INSTEAD OF BRINGING THEM OUT OF THE GREYS?

Sony Sexist ad?? They would never... oh wait

Obligatory

Every time I read these stories I think of this famous image and it just frustrates me that women are still dealing with this... I need wine!

In North America, some men will not cat call in the presence of other men. They will only catcall if the woman is alone or with other women. So, sometimes it can be a hidden problem to some.

I should point out that this is a worldwide problem too. So it depends on the country, the region and the culture. I have been

But you can't trust women to be rational. That's why nobody pays attention. We're too hormonal and hysterical for logic. That's why there's no glass ceiling, no such thing as pro-choice, and no wage gap. It's all in our pretty little heads.

It's so adorable that you're trying this hard and reaching this much to attempt to make this post misandric. It's really chapping your hide to see evidence that feminists don't actually hate men isn't it?

Somebody should make a Freaky Friday sequel in which a man who doesn't comprehend the impact of street harassment switches bodies with his girlfriend and has to experience it first hand.

I second Ladyheatherlee and will add that street harassment isn't always loud catcalling and whistling, sometimes it's a dude following you, walking too close and whispering things, hissing them quietly when you walk by... It doesn't have to be loud to make you uncomfortable. Just last week a guy silently followed me

I never got catcalled growing up, but that was mostly because people left the house, immediately stepped into a car, drove to where they were going and then stepped out. There were no walkers where I grew up. Now that I live in a place where I walk exclusively, catcalling is a weekly thing I encounter.

They're people, not Pokemon.

My husband had never really 'heard' someone being cat called until I was walking to his car one day. Seeing me alone as opposed to walking next to him (and the difference in the way people treat a woman by herself) was an eye opener for him.

I just realized there's also a phone in the photo. I can't tell if it's on purpose.

I was thinking that too. Glad this guy is going to be OK and happy to have him, or anyone as an ally. I do hope people will listen to him. I'll be happy about that and pissed they didn't listen to women and the lgbt community all at the same time.

I'm not going to be one to suggest you stop having eyes, I mean, as a bisexual woman I'm tempted to stare myself. But if I catch myself looking I look away. It depends on how much time you're spending looking, because trust me it IS uncomfortable being stared at just as much as it is hearing something, especially when

I'm a cyclist, too. For some reason I rarely get catcalled when I'm walking down the street or at a bar, but when I'm on the bike? All the fucking time. I've gotten the "woo-woo", the "hey, baby, nice ass" (to which I usually reply, "Thanks, it's padding."), and more aggressive things like threats of violence screamed

My heart absolutely goes out to him for what he's gone through, and I'm always happy to have allies. I don't mean to sound ungrateful for something that should be a good sentiment, but... I find it a little off putting that there's a real chance that people will take this seriously because it happened to a man.

The bullying comparison is perfect because it really IS bullying. Bullying disguised as b.s. compliments.

The one time I outright asked a grown man to stop screaming at me I was slammed into a wall by my throat...I was 13.

For the last time, no one cares about your stupid boner.
