Let's see, where does that leave us? If a certain behavior of mine is likely to annoy or upset 1 out of every 2 people that I interact with, then I err on the side of caution and politeness and do not do the behavior. this isn't hard.

I don't think you're evil at all, just clueless. Women left and right are telling you that they don't like a certain behavior but you continue to insist that this behavior is OK.

Really? So you go up to random men on the street and compliment their physique? I want to meet you because I've been told that men like you exist but I've never met one. Like a unicorn.

Yes. You have made it all about yourself. That was obvious from the very start.

No. In your earlier reply you wrote:

Really? So you go up and compliment random men on the street ? How do they normally react to that?

Ding, ding ding. We have a winner here folks!

No. Compliment a man they way they "compliment" a woman.

Street harassment is disrespectful and is NOT human interaction. If you are unable to keep yourself from harassing women perhaps it is you who should stay at home.

Misandrist Barbarian hordes at the gates! It's not a cat-call or street harassment. He's just giving a compliment. Just a compliment.

Why you talkin' rudeboy? Get back down and put your lips on my hairy labia!

Do you consider yourself a Nice Guy Egnar?

Sweetie, you are telling other people that their concerns are not valid. I count over a dozen replies in which women tell you how much they dislike it. And yet, you go out of your way to dismiss their concerns.

No. I dislike being interrupted. I especially dislike being interrupted for trivial reasons. Therefore I am annoyed, sometimes offended, at these interruptions.

Are you approached by other men 3-4 times a day, every day, since the time that you turned 11 years old? If not, you do not get to define another person's comfort level.

All-righty then! I had assumed that you were a straight man when I first replied. Most men who do the catcalling under the guise of "compliments" would never compliment another man.

Question for you: How often do you compliment men? If not, why not?

Preach! If it is "just a compliment" then why do they not compliment other men?

I don't know. Most of the time, for me, the problem IS that they are hitting on me. It is a hassle to go about one's day being interrupted all the time. I don't care that they think I'm pretty or that they are lonely. Not interested so go away!

A female what? Don't call women, "females" in the same sentence in which you call men, "men."
