I respect her father for sticking to blogging and not going to the company hq and removing the ad creator's limbs.

I agree. This isn't like a Yes Men style prank, where they're intentionally making awful companies acknowledge what they've done. This was almost more of a suggestion for what Playboy COULD do.

I think this is a serious misreading of what's going on with this hack job.

Wow, that's a powerful story.

Well, it's a counterpoint.

Dude, hey, sorry if I made you feel weird— I just now am seeing that you've had a lot of responses and I bet that many of them are similar to mine. I'm saying that while I support one girl's enjoyment of a specific kind of street comments, I just don't want to go down the slippery slope of "because one girl enjoyed…

I'm just gonna give you a sample of some shit dudes have yelled at me in the street, okay?

I don't mind wolf whistling, either, but it's so different from the sincerely creepy things that most street harassers say and do. Most of that stuff makes my blood boil and sometimes I feel quite threatened.

Generally speaking, you assume people don't enjoy unusual or aggressive sexual behaviors unless they tell you otherwise. While whistling and calling aren't unusual, they are absurdly, mind-bendingly aggressive - to the point where women have to process them an have an opinion about them, because they're constant and…

unfortunately it is a personal topic for a lot of women. And it's really hard to separate all of the emotions and anger from the discussion.

I should have been clearer in my use of language. There is a grey area in the some women can enjoy something like a wolf whistle. It is never okay to do something like that. But someone women may like it somewhat.

Hey,

Yes, she's allowed to feel however she feels about it. Street harassment is still a real and pervasive problem separate from the individual reactions of women subject to it. One really has very little to do with the other. Does that answer your question? The reason that your question about whether or not it's ok that…

The point that I think needs to be made is: sure, some women do like it, and that's just fine. There's nothing wrong with liking it.

Some women have rape fantasies. And yes, I've heard that used as a rationalization for why rape isn't so bad.

Well, some guys find it enjoyable to get kicked in the balls. (Yes, seriously.)

My favorite: I got a "Hiya, toots!" while crossing the street in front of a truck driver. I felt like I was in 1930s movie.

Always assume they don't.

wolf whistles vs lude comments on type of underwear person is wearing?

See while I respect the doctors who are trained in inducing abortions stories like this person wrote about make me feel a bit ill. My grandfather's sister, in the 50's had a "back alley" abortion, she already had one child and couldn't afford to have another, but she died as a result of complications from the…
