Have you ever enjoyed being catcalled in public?

No. When it first happened to me, I was 17 and had to ride the bus to work, and my stop was on a very busy corner, and every.single.day, fully grown men would hang out of their windows and whistle and hoot and say the nastiest things about my body parts and ask for my number or just stare at me uncomfortably licking their lips and winking or blowing kisses if the light was red. I was in a work uniform so all this "you asked for it by the way you dressed bit" is ridiculous because apparently guys can perv no matter what you look like. This was disgusting back then, and I find it disgusting now. If you want to speak to a lady, AND HOPEFULLY ONE OF AGE, you walk up to her like a decent person and offer a compliment or ask for her number, or whatever decent approach you want to take, but screaming from across the street and leering at her, and following her screaming how hot she is, DOES NOT WORK and it's creepy. No one's meet cute story at their wedding started with, "he pulled up to me at my bus station and yelled, 'you have great boobs,' "for a reason.

It’s a hard No. guys don’t be creepy, and its a little scary actually. Don’t be a 12 yo boy and say nice Rack Baby! Some girl will punch you. Hold a door open. Offer to help her. Catcalling will not get you a date. Ok whistling secretly makes me feel sexy

Catcalling just seems… Not creepy, but not welcomed and makes the ‘person’ in question uncomfortable…

As a guy, I wouldn’t want to draw attention from a woman ‘calling me out’ with “Nice ass boy!” or “Impressive bulge” idk… Would be weird so, I wouldn’t do it to women. Treat people how I want to be treated sort of thing.

It is okay in a social situation to try to flirt / shoot your shot / get to know someone better however catcalling doesn’t seem ‘respectful’ or ‘dignifying’ to the women & men being targeted (mainly women)

I'm sure it's repulsive and so bad to be admired that many wish we'd go blind. All but the fuckable ones. They dress for them and all of us repulsive ones that make them want to puke should regularly look in every mirror available and remind ourselves we're not worthy to use our eyes on their self-made beauty. I don't think I've ever heard a woman acknowledge where she got her looks. I think a conceded female is one of God's ugliest creatures on this planet.

I have to laugh. I was running outside last September.. it was still hot and I did not have a shirt on. A bunch of girls around my age (18 at the time) were sitting at a picnic table next to the path I ran on. Several whistled and said nice legs as I ran buy. I could kick myself for not stopping and saying hi but I was kinda sweaty

AngelBritney · Answer

Depends on the situation. If I am feeling good and in the mood for flirty times, then it can feel good. But that happens rarely. I think the way men are catcalling is key: If they do it right and respectfully without drawing too much attention, then there is a better chance that I will answer with a smile.

Kaneki05 · Answer

She's only gonna like it if the guy is hot and she's ugly.
And the comment wasn't something weird, it was just damn your hot.
Which let's think about how many times that's gonna happen? 0.1% of the time maybe?

Cringy men like it. Most women hate it.

4ngelic · Answer

only like two or three times when i was 16 because i was insecure (was kinda overweight). didn't like it exactly that much but it made me feel desirable so... i'm talking about actual street harrasment though, not respectful compliments

FreyaRed · Answer

No. Catcalling and staring comes always from creeps.

Siri137 · Answer

I don't recall the last time I was catcalled, but I do get weirdos staring at me a lot, and I don't like that.

dustybiker2 · Answer

No. It's right up there with screaming toddlers on planes.

DrPepper12 · Answer

I wish. Although I have to ask the ladies, is it complimentary or creepy if I hold a door open or pass by a woman and say "Damn! I love summer!" It seems to always get a BIG smile so it seems complimentary.

ManOnFire · Answer

Women don't enjoy being catcalled, they just enjoy telling people that some guy was into them, even if she isn't into that guy.

Gospeedracer · Answer

I've been cat called by women a couple of times I wasn't sure if they were messing with me or not at the time.

Loner111 · Answer

It's happened to me a couple of times and if it's from a girl I'm attracted to, no problem, but if it's a woman I'm not attracted to, I'm uncomfortable with it.

sheikalana · Answer

Never. Is cringe AF and always made me feel uncomfortable.

Jeilasoyun · Answer

It can be flattering but most times it’s just creepy

Goahead76 · Answer

It's happened to me a few times, and just made me laugh. Kind of ridiculous to have some strange girls yelling at you as they drove by.

Chazmatazz269 · Answer

No. I suppose i might have if i felt it wasn’t ironic or sarcastic. But it never felt genuine.

Anonymous · Answer

i can tell how this one will turn out, all the guys will want it but never get it, even the really good-looking guys, and all the girls always get this and don't really want it

LiamJHayden · Answer

My female friends do that to me sometimes. It is about as close to embarrassed as I get.

Booklover_90 · Answer

This doesn’t happen to me. If men check me out, they keep it to themselves. 🤷🏽‍♀️😂

azbaeu · Answer

I have an unhealthy relationship with my sexuality but I think it's kind of thrilling when people publicly proclaim my sexiness

Oh Hell yeah. A gay dude hit on me and it made my week. I almost felt bad telling him I wasn't gay.
