Guys are you ok with being catcalled?

Question

like if a girl just started touching your arms and said "Damn" and called you hot, And her friends whistled and called you daddy, Would you be mad or like it?

SAUL077 · Accepted Answer

No. I don't think I'd enjoy it. It would be strange. I'd probably say thank you and move in with my day. Mainly cause am not use to that type of attention and I have never catcalled anyone. I have been approached by women at a bar tho and I've noticed that women do not take kindly to rejection. I had one women call me a faggot to the entire bar when I turned her down. But it wasn't that bad, am not physically threatened by most women so the experience differs greatly from when women get catcalled or reject a guy.

Been there. And I liked it every time. Other than when a grandma got drunk and tried to grab my dick in a bar. All the help I got was a security guard laughing and doing nothing about it lmao. I was fine obviously but very annoyed and uncomfortable because I literally had to leave the room so this woman would stop trying to grab my dick. No exaggeration
😅

From reading on here, and talking to my fiancé, guys receive so few compliments that they cherish them for years. So I expect they would be confused at first (due to the above), then appreciate them for a while, and then start to feel offended like we girls do after it gets to be too much.

Only from hot women and not from old women or gays. Anyway my gay friends always cat call random guys. It is funny how they say cat calling is just complimenting someone but they also get triggered when my gay friends cat call them.

OlderAndWiser · Answer

I'm 66 years old. I would find it amusing.

Ghostlock · Answer

First, that is not catcalling. It crosses the line of catcalling when you get touched. Secondly, as long as the catcalling was done in a respectful way, it wouldn't bother me a bit. There is a line of respect there. These days people just like to be offended, so any type of catcalling is offensive to people... but I don't live by societal standards because society has gone insane. I actually balance things out instead of going all or nothing like the rest of the world does these days. Catcalling can be flattering as long as it is respectful and doesn't cross a gross line. One it crosses the line of vulgarity of any kind or touching, it's no longer catcalling, it's harassment.

MCheetah · Answer

I think most men, me included, wouldn't have a problem with it. The only women who have a problem with it are insecure, generally negative women (although that's a lot of them). I've never once in my life been catcalled before, but I kinda wish a women would have. It'd be flattering.

bodiesands · Answer

No.

And I realise you're probably asking to show why women don't like it either.

And I'd agree - it's an invasion and an imposition for either sex. We only want attention from those we ourselves are attracted to - and subtle and respectful attention at that.

Satyromaniac · Answer

Absolutely!!! Guys don't mind most of the inappropriate things girls do/behave with us... we're just thankful she paid attention to me/us... Heck we would dance to death with happiness if a pretty girl even slightly hinted that she would enjoy molesting/raping us...

Lynx122 · Answer

I wouldn't mind it I would enjoy the attention but when this actualy happened to me the girl was drunk and she was doing it in front of her boyfriend and that was not as much fun. But if she had been single I would have been fine with it. I don't know why the friends have to get involved though :D

HawkPerception · Answer

I don't mind at all. It's flattering. Being forceful and grabbing is a definite no, but some touch wouldn't bother me. That never happens though lol. I feel like most guys don't get even 1/100th of the attention most girls get just for having tits. We're kind of attention deprived.

rocksongwriter · Answer

If it was a group of female friends and we were all joking around, I wouldn't mind (and it might even boost my self-esteem). However, if it was a girl that was trying to get a date with me, catcalling would NOT win me over. It'd be a major turnoff and a one way ticket to the acquaintance zone (which is located beyond the friend zone).

Hairylegs222 · Answer

Being called daddy is weird and disturbing to me. I'd instantly tell that woman to please not ever call me that.

If a women I don't know started touching my muscles I'd get suspicious like I'm being robbed and I'd grab her hands to stop. I don't trust strangers.

Calling me hot, saying damn, or whistling at me I'd be fine with that.

Anonymous · Answer

Touching me is not catcalling. If I got catcalled, I wouldn't care. It might even make my day a bit better. I'd feel like I looked so good that random girls couldn't keep their thoughts silent. In some cases, it might also be funny. Everyone could use a laugh.

Anonymous · Answer

If I thought it was genuine I'd like it, however I would naturally assume they weren't being serious and making fun of me. And especially for me personally as I just have never got attention like that ever, so I would just assume I was being made fun of. "Daddy" isn't a turn on either (I think porn is to blame for this, but not many guys irl actually like this). Would you want to be called Mommy? lol

ObscuredBeyond · Answer

I'd think it was a con, and wonder who marked me and why. I'm at best a 7 on the 0 - 10 scale. Probably more 6.5. Any woman who looks like an 8 or above who's suddenly that interested in me... is up to something.

Anonymous · Answer

There is a double standard here. If do “catcall” a guy you better be 100% sure he’s in your league. I’ve been catcalled by women 20 years my senior when I was in my late teens and also got outright sexual remarks from obese women. That was gross. But as a man if I complained that would make me “gay” right?

t-8900 · Answer

I've experienced it. It's flattering until they try to grab me. I don't like being touched by strangers like they. Especially bellow the belt... I can't count the number of times and I would get pissed.

Sarahr123 · Answer

I never minded it. It’s only creepy and scary when people start following you when you don’t want to be followed.

60minman · Answer

Honestly... it would make my day... week... month and year. A girl once came up to me at the gym saying I reminded her of someone else. She then quickly commented on how fine that guy was. I've never seen her again, but her face is permanently etched into my brain. I wish there were more women like her... that was really cool.

normalice · Answer

It has never happened to me. But if it did i would assume she is just teasing and not actually interested.

moviedude714 · Answer

If I was already attracted to her and she was being serious about it and not just trying to use me for validation and actually wants me, it would be a dream come true

The_Shadow_Dweller · Answer

I would feel lucky to be catcalled. I blend in the crowd at a fine level. If girls are catcalling me, that means they are noticing me.

JustinTheGreat · Answer

i don’t mind being flirted with by strangers, I get flattered actually lol  but if they’re touching me and calling me daddy, I think I’d get super uncomfortable

FakeName123 · Answer

I've had girls trying to put their hands into my pants and such. I wouldn't exactly call it morally ok. But I also didn't get PTSD from it. There is a realm between the two.

Datboi65 · Answer

See, I don't think it's the same way as with women. However, I would definitely say it would make me uncomfortable because it's unwelcome attention.

BeMuse · Answer

I usually just think they are lonely morons and don’t think too much about it unless they do something like grab my ass..

snackthatsmilesback · Answer

What does she look like? I wouldn't be okay with it, I'd tell her to stop. If that doesn't work then... well she's with a group. So I guess I'd just leave.

IAMNathanael · Answer

I wouldn't be mad. I certainly wouldn't like it. And don't nobody ever call me daddy except my future children.

Tonytoutouni123 · Answer

„touching“ someone is something completely different than making him a compliment. And yes, whenever a girl compliments me I don’t complain about „catcalling“, I am pleased about it.

f_ckjoebiden · Answer

I'm not sure. If a guy did it, I'd just have to laugh my ass off. If a woman did it, I'd be wondering if it's a joke or if it's real, especially when I was younger and built and actually had it happen one time.

kellytheman · Answer

I probably like and be flattered. I have been catcalled by girls before while working out or doing some yard work with my shirt off but never been called daddy. I most had girl give me looks or mention how hot my muscles are.

jasco · Answer

I mean i be uncomfortable at first cause I have never been catcalled before. If i were really attractive and it were happening to me daily than I more than likely be fine with it. However I don't like people touching me so yea

Petermorgan34 · Answer

Guys being catcalled? You should be a comedian! I don't mind, guys usually don’t get any complements and it really feels good when it happens

Subarugirl · Answer

Not if it happened like it does to women.

Cloud-9 · Answer

That would be a confidence booster, however I am in a serious relationship so it would be a bad thing 😄

KellyPlayz333555 · Answer

I would be confused and I would appreciate her support, but I'm not lesbian because dating girls is a bit embarrassing and I already have an online boyfriend

Anonymous · Answer

I've been catcalled a few times. Thought it was hilarious. I didn't go cry about it and say it's inappropriate or sexist.

cookiecrusher · Answer

Does happen from time to time.

No catcalling, just touching, butt, hips, back, legs etc. Don't like it, i'm pretty personal with my space.

It's nice to be noticed, but at least tell me your name before 😅

DryGermanGuy · Answer

I had worse happening to me! „Irritated“, I guess, is the word I am looking for. 🙄

jspl90 · Answer

that ls so fucking rare that it would be amusing and flattering perhaps after the first 20 it would start being annoying

DonkeyDan · Answer

I don't mind being cat called but I hate being called daddy!

ohshee · Answer

Its happend. * NICE BUTT* What can you do but turn and smile

razzmatazz009 · Answer

Well we don't really have a choice do we? I actually get it quite a bit from old ladies especially at my job. It is flattering.

TommyMountainFigure · Answer

Would I be mad? Nah, I'd probably put on some kind of show for 'em too.

Ekke118 · Answer

Yeah, that would be ok, even fun. However, they're not getting any points for being bold 😂

ChiPaPa · Answer

I would be delighted with that. But, let's not have a crazy fantasy that will never happen.

Browneye57 · Answer

How much under 18?  What the hell is this anyway?

jshm2 · Answer

Pretty used to that sort of thing back in the day.  These days it would be rather strange.

Neosporin · Answer

I want to say I'll like it but I could also be nervous and this is assuming they're my age and not way older

Myk13 · Answer

It never bothered me. If I’m not interested, I smile and keep going. If I’m interested, I stop and introduce myself.

sp33d · Answer

I'd be fine with all of that except being called daddy. I ain't your damn daddy.

FýrdracaDócincel · Answer

I'd be fine with the verbal attention. Physical contact would cross the line. I'm very stingy about people touching me.

ChiTown33 · Answer

Well since women don't do that really. I would assume she's just playing a trick on me. So I wouldn't pay her any mind.

Anonymous · Answer

If I thought it was sincere, then yes.

The problem is that if they did I would be immediately suspicious. I would see it as mocking or a prank meant to get a reaction out of me. I would look for the hidden cameras.

Ryfyle · Answer

That Never happens at all these days. Practically impossible with smart phones around. Happened a lot during my high-school years, and never really bothered me.

Bismarck_96 · Answer

I've had my hands, arms, and thighs touched before and got compliments about my veins popping out of my arms but never bothered me I do love the feeling of soft hands

najekim · Answer

Nope. Centuries ago when walking through a bar or nightclub I get my ass grabbed many times and I always took it as a compliment. Never has bothered me.

Aiko_E_Lara · Answer

Touching your arms is not cat calling. You need to know what it truly is before using that word and if you're really talking about actual cat call, I don't care. I consider them as a background noise

cth96190 · Answer

I would be fine with that. I would also give treats to their Labradors.

call_me_scar · Answer

Not all the time could see that being annoying at work

PardontheMasculinity · Answer

Oh we just have to take it like everything else in life because no one cares about us being objectified especially women who think just because we’re male we must like it so it doesn’t really matter if we like it or not we just have to deal with it

GoodGuyBreakingBad · Answer

Yes, that would make me blush, So I'm fine being catcalled

FilmGuy93 · Answer

I would generally be okay with that, yes. As long as things didn't get too weird.
