If anything, it's becoming less socially acceptable. I haven't seen any examples for a very long time. People are still shouting abuse at each other though, but it's not sexual.
SOME girls like being cat called and some don’t. I usually feel bad for girls who don’t like it but at the same time if your wearing a dress that shows your panties I kind of have no sympathy for you.
What if she wants to wear a that dress or any dress? We don't want idiots walking up to us and saying stupid and awful things like that. Tbh, I really doubt that anyone likes being catcalled. It just makes us feel worthless and it usually brings people down. If they like it now, they won't later when there having a bad day and are wearing jeans and a top while idiots walk up to them. Complete strangers judging them!
@Unknown2232 all I’m saying is, if you dress like a girl who’s clearly desperate for attention, you will get it. If you don’t, most likely you won’t.
I kinda thought it *used* to be socially acceptable (sortof) but in recent decades (?) has been demonized?
Why sexualise yourself in public if you don't want attention?
So, we should stop wearing dresses? Or men could just start control their primal instincts? Do you hear women sexualizing men without shirt, in shorts? I certainly don't!
Men do control their primal instincts. A very very small minority do not but if you think it's acceptable to walk around with your underwear showing and expect no one to say anything then you are living in cloud cuckoo lans
If I was wearing dress with visible panties, I would want a guy to come to me and tell me that, not yelling through street!
What you would want and what you should expect are two completely different things
Maybe she didn't know they were visible through the dress? She should wear what she wants without this happening.
@Elaine_17 whether she knew or not isn't relevant, the fact is her dress was see through and a guy commented on it. That's life, it's not sexual harassment or anything crazy!
If my cock was hanging out my zipper I'd expect someone to comment on it
I wouldn't want someone to comment in the way she described it. I don't expect women to say those same remarks if your dick was hanging out. I'd say "uhhh, your dick is out." I would definitely not be saying it in a way that is inappropriate manner as if I was thirsty for your dick like how some of the comments she describes are.
All he said was 'your panties are hot' and walked away. Hardly inappropriate lol
Well, I consider making comments on stuff like that to be a little out of boundaries which is considered inappropriate in my opinion. I think it was the way the guy went about it that made it inappropriate. Now, he could have said "Excuse me, your panties are visible from your dress." No more comments need to be made. You can tell by her words and reactions as she describes the incident that at first he compliments the dress. Nothing wrong with that, but then he makes a comment about her panties through the dress in a way that is deemed inappropriate. What exactly did he mean by "your panties are hot."? Was her referring to the panties itself or how the panties made her butt cheeks seem. Either way, she did not expect anyone to comment in that way. Not even females make comments on another girls panties especially if the dress makes it visible. It is definitely not deemed "appropriate".
Like I said, if you don't want to receive comments like that then don't wear stuff that will provoke them. Simple isn't it?
Well, how do we know that it was provocative? She doesn't describe the dress nor did she think her dress was provocative. Just because it "attracts a male" does not make it provocative. She could be wearing jeans, and it could still be provocative. Her dress could have been a long loose white dress. She could have been coming home from a restaurant. I don't consider loose white dresses to be provocative. Understand that, there is a saying "If you don't have anything appropriate to say, do not say anything at all." Same saying goes towards men and woman. We are able to hold our own tongues from saying something. I don't see how hard it is for men to not speak or make comments. You say it's simple to not wear provocative stuff, but men can make anything provocative. It's also simple for men not to say anything at all. There is a reason why we have the capability of restraint. Simple isn't it?
At the end of the day, this world has plenty assholes in it - if you want to draw attention from them with your style and dress sense that is entirely up to you!
I'm sure there are plenty females who go about their business daily and never get any trouble because they don't put themselves in that situation
That doesn't make sense to me. Considering a lot of reasons. I dress up. I never get attention. Anyone can dress up, but that doesn't mean guys will give you attention. There is no guarantee for that. There are plenty of females who can wear jeans and be catcalled and sexualized in public. Honestly, there is no wrong or right here. You can wear jeans. You can still find trouble. You can wear a dress. You can still find trouble. I can go about my business daily in a fucking dress, and not get catcalled. How would you like it if I forced you to have as little options to dress without freedom? I wouldn't want that. You expect that dresses and having style to give attention, but it doesn't. Not everyone cares about that. So, stop making it out like "this is how it is" when it is not. That those who follow this is the only way. So, stop making it out to be like that because it's not.
But it is..
No it's not. There is more than one way. You have this mental image in your mind that is stuck on this one part. You act like this is all woman's fault when it's a two-sided coin. You can't be one without the other.
No its not all women's fault and I've not once said or indicated that. Men are the ones causing the problem but women need to be aware of what is likely to get them unwanted attention and be vigilant to avoid it which I feel they do not!
It's like me going to a football game between 2 rival sides knowing I'm walking through 1 teams supporters and wearing an opposition top and saying 'i can wear what I want, no one should say anything to me or harm me'
No they shouldn't say anything to me or harm me but I know the chances are that they will, so I don't take that chance!
This take is not promoted clearly gives you reasons why.
Editors here suck big time.
It's not a MyTake.
@BCRanger10 *question is not promoted.
if i was a woman ud enjoy being catcalled and id just ignore them
It's been like that since the beginning of humanity.
It's been a normal occurrence for the last 50 or 60 years. Is it a good thing? No. But it happens.
not really. women seem to be overly sensitive about it. just ignore it
Forget all that “do they think I’ll sleep with them” stuff. It’s not really about you. It’s an exercise in confidence for them.
I have had more catcalls and inappropriate comments from women than men
That’s because you’re a man🤦🏼♀️
@janna_jcb Ahahaha Ahahaha 😂
Yeah I mean that makes sense right?😂
I have never been catcalled by a woman, only by men
No, it is not acceptable. Sorry to hear that people does that.
It's nothing new... it's been going on since forever
No it's not ok, everyone should be able to walk with out being subject to harassment
I see it as exceptional as talking when some one else is. So only in a few cases
Yup. I don't know why people accepting this kind of shit.
Yes I think so and I would like to take this time to send one to you You are hot so WooWee girl lol
Unfortunately, putting up with shit like that is too common now a days
No it never be acceptable but one can't change others so try to ignore them
Guys do it because it works. Yes, some women are attracted to the kind of guys who cat-call. The guys who are harassing you are honestly hoping it will lead to a liaison.
I find it flattering tbh
No, and it should not be either.
I would only do that to someone I don't respect and already knew I had no chance with.
Why do it at all?
Cause if a bitch is just fucking with you, she ain't care about the rules either.
I extend her no pulled punches if she's gonna bring me down to some trashy level.
Im not saying you just call people you don't care for names and shit but if I'm not gonna give a fuck if you make a hobby out of, busting my balls like that.
Please don't. I hate it and I am not even a girl
Not acceptable in my opinion
Not acceptable in my opinion but many think it's acceptable if white guys do it , not if colored boys or strangers do it.
Apparently so unfortunately
It's a lack of manners, some men are just stupid..
Small men want big attention
No respect we should treat woman with sweetness
It's bad manners.
Definitely, but it can also be a crowd mentality
@guydude42
so one would have to find ways to not be affected by crowd mentality. Having a personality and morals are two ways I can think of
Yes I completely agree
Those morals and values come with education and a good stable childhood. Some men grew up watching the wrong exemplars, being taught the wrong morals, or even- if you can imagine- being trapped with an abusive father after being abandoned by their mother. Their only emotional support is the man who treats women wrong, they love that man and so they can't help learning from the only place they can rely upon. It's the same way with criminals, they are rarely from happy families, a stable childhood, or are entirely free of mental disorders. The issue is, in the middle of all this, educated and respectful men who make up a large percentage of the guys you meet in life who don't try to breach your privacy on the street and go by unnoticed, are being thrown in the heap with the guys who they disagree vehemently with. I have never catcalled a woman in my life, but if I try to redeem the image of men in people's minds, I'm met with the same disgust and anger that cat-callers receive.
@Danishkabby Having a difficult life is not an excuse because many people have a difficult life and don't become criminals. And it's not logical to assume all men are the same Also, I suppose that being educated and respectful is not something one does to get noticed by a lot of women, only the right woman for them, who will.
It's not about being noticed by women haha. I just think being educated and intelligent leads you to be act more respectful of others, it's an exercise in compassion for me. I'd like to think that people are born blank slates, it's what they experience that molds them into what they are. Therefore I think first and foremost, I know I can impact the attitude of children who I am a mentor to, or as a father inspire my children to have the proper respect for others, not just women but to treat everyone with respect. I simply identified the cause and looked if there's a way to stop the problem at its root instead at the tip. The issue of cat-callers and disrespect toward women and other human beings, in general, is a part of public education not making it a priority to dedicate some time to morality and acceptable social behavior, and parents not having a guideline by which to educate and discipline their children.
No it's quite the opposite
Do you ask because you like it happening to you?
9/10 no unless obvious solicitation is involved
Yes becouse yed
Some are asshole
No it hasn't
Not really
