Mentality. Because it's culturally specific.
In some places you see none, even when those people go to the beach. And in other areas there are men hollering at women in track suits.
Both. Some men don't have manners even harass if you have everything covered up. And some women dress very revealing
the men because when a guy is shirtless or wearing shorts, girls don't harass them. they can choose to keep their mouth shut, they have a brain. they're not neanderthals that can't help but be gross to a woman not doing anything.
a girl called me cute and I didn't know them and i've seen girls go after men with shirts off
@Danher525 that's not yelling gross things tho in a demeaning way
can you define gross things?
Mentality. No woman should feel shameful for wearing provocative clothing. It is the man's fault that he can't control his damn urges.
Provocative clothing exists because of the mentality of men. Sexual harassment has existed for as long as mankind has.
It's dedinitely the mentality of many men. I can see a woman walking naked and I'm sure I would not harrass her or pass comments on her even though I'll get a little startled
clothing. if you dress like a hoe, you'll be treated like a hoe.
Honestly, some of us get it no matter how we're dressed - I've been sexually harassed when I had nothing but my eyes showing.
@SunsetStar you had luscious eyes then.
difference between looking and admiring, even lusting mentally, and doing something about it. I think harassment will be stepping over the line to doing something about it. wrong!!!
It's due to many factors yet instead of finding an answer to each person's issue we toss them in a cell and expect them to come out rehabilitated, or better in some way.
So backwards
It's because of mentality of men. men wear short cloths too other than any gay nobody will come to you. If it comes we will feel problem too.. If anyone disagrees then think about when any transgender touches you how do you react!
Men look for victims, not confident hoes who will fuck their life up while wearing a sexy outfit.
you may say that men do most the harassment by even some women are guilty
so only blaming men is sexist
clothes do have a role but mentality is the reason a men should be always responsible for his actions
Mentality although if a girl is dressed provocatively she has a higher chance of being sexually harassed.
I don't want to get chewed out by feminists but I do believe that it's the provocative clothing.
My thing is, I've been harassed with nothing but my eyes showing. In my experience where you are matters much more than what you're wearing.
It's just a thing loosers do... Not all men do it... Just street rats
Guys get sexually harrased too. It's the mentality of the person. The clothing is only a catalyst.
Bit of both, if a rich guy shows off his wealth and he gets robbed is it his fault or the thieves fault?
Still a theif's fault. They commited the offense.
If you can't stop yourself from harassing someone just because of the way they're dressed then there's something wrong with you.
Usually the girls that dress that way want the attention. It's just like if a guy walks around without a shirt on.
depends, saying "hey sweetheart want to go on a date" isn't sexual harassment. its just being bad at picking up chicks. if someone comes up and grabs your ass, thats sexual harassment.
I believe personally that it is both... Simply because some women do dress rather on the provacative side. And some men just have very sexual mentalities.
Both.
Stop asking obvious, leading questions.
lol
No its a silly game... women dress provocatively and it depends on the guys looks.. unfortunately, if you're unattractive its harassment but if you are its not..
Both, but mostly mentally. The mind creates the actions.
what are claiming as "sexual herassment"?
Cat calling is NOT sexual herassment, so I am interested to know.
Down vote it all you like... Catcalling is NOT sexual harassment.
Stop playing the victim card. You are not victims!
Actually it is. Here's the definition-
harassment (typically of a woman) in a workplace, or other professional or social situation, involving the making of unwanted sexual advances or obscene remarks
I got that straight from google. I'm sure if I look in an actual dictionary Ill find something similar
The reason is says typically a woman is because a. Men don't piss and moan about petty shit like "hey handsome" being obscene the way women complain about men saying "hey beautiful".
And B: male victims of women are generally ignored.
So regardless of you feminist definition from google... The concept of "unwanted sexual advances" and what is considered "offensive" is so grey and vague that you are essentually saying ALL interactions between people is harassment.
Therefore Women exposing their sexual parts in public onto people that have not asked for it is harassment. So NO more tights as pants, see through clothing, lose or unnessesarily short clothes which flash your genitals regularly. Etc.
But let me guess... "That's different because reasons!"
If you don't want sexual attention, don't peacock your body for sexual attention...
And if someone you don't like says "hi miss" don't trigger and act like a victim.
A male being polite to you isn't harassment just because you don't find him attractive.
Without attempts to make contact between the sexes... Our species would be extinct.
They aren't exposing their sexual parts. Their vaginas aren't hanging out of girls shorts half the time they're harassed. There are multiple posts on her indicating girls got catcalled wearing jeans. I'm one of them.
And yelling "hey baby!" Across the street is not being polite. Nor is yelling "I wanna see what you have under there!!"
According to your logic men not wearing shirts is sexual harassment
If you are wear a cloth version of body paint... You are looking for sexual attention.
Rompers, lose shorts, high cut shorts, tights, yoga pants, anything made to enhance your sexual parts...
Even jeans that are skin tight.
These are all worn for sexual attention.
The FIRST thing a female does when she puts on pants is turn and check out her ass to make sure it looks good.
Some idiot being "rude" is not harassment. "Hey baby" is rude and the guy needs manners but the female doesn't need fuckin therapy for sexual assualt ffs.
When you are cat called... Do two things,
Check what your wearing and ask yourself if you wore it to "be pretty" ie get sexual attention. And 2 look at the guy cat calling and notice te "quality" of person you are dealing with.
Only scum bags cat call. No guy in a suit will be cat calling. These guys may be dirtbags but they are not harassing you. They just simply have no filter between their brain and their mouth. They are the same idiots who swear around kids
My "logic" is mocking your logic and topless men are not exposing their sexual parts.
Women with camel toe, exposed labia and ass cheeks are exposing their sexual parts.
You're saying all of this as a male. Not all females put on jeans for sexual attention... rompers are comfortable. Everything you said besides yoga pants is for comfort or to go with the outfit.
Saying "Hey Baby" and jeering at a girl when she does not want to talk IS harassment. If a woman is running away from you, there's good reason why.
I've seen many men wear gym shorts which show their bulge. I also see men wearing jeans that show it. Are you going to tell those men to stop doing that? Or shame them the way you do women?
I personally don't wear clothing showing my ass or anything, but I STILL have been catcalled. It's not all about clothing
If you put on SKIN tight jeans... or ANY skin tight clothing... you are doing it for sexual attention. There are jean options available and other clothing options available that matter.
If a male wore something skin tight so his dick was visible... it would be so girls noticed his dick. A "bulge" is not the same as camel toe or exposed vagina... it's the same as breast in a shirt. It is a simply mound without detail.

This is the basic standard for female clothing these days.
None of this is for "comfort"!
having your vagina bifurcated by material is NOT for comfort.
wearing clothing you have to constantly adjust or fight to keep up or down, is not for comfort.
If you are stared at when creating a public spectacle of yourself is to be expected.
And Men wearing clothing that exposes their genitals are shamed.

If you are being cat called, it isn't because you are wearing a burka.

If you dress like a hooker people are going to treat you like one.
Clothes make people, remember?
Unfortunately, there's also guys who will treat you like a hooker no matter what you're wearing. Especially if you have a certain body type.
You can't leave the door of your house opened then complain about being robbed
I'd both
I think it is a little of both. There are times when I where a scarf on my head, no makeup, sweats and crappy sneakers and still get the harassment.
it's because of the mentally state of man and we pick up some girls like that but girls how ware really tit clothe are asking for it
I'd say its not only the mentality of men inherently but how they're raised. Popular Culture nowadays makes them all too similar.
Not wearing a helmet doesn't give u the right to run over my bike. similarly, wearing clothes of your choice does not give u the right to rape me.
Neither. It's from the mentality of the woman. Many women claim "harassment" when it's not at all harassment.
Both. Girls are dressed like cheap whores, but also normal guys wouldn't go THAT directly even at cheap whores.
its just because of the mentality of the men and the people who are nt educated,
I think it has to do with culture and how people react to it socially.
Neither. it's the mentality of the person, not the sex or gender
Both. Mostly provocative clothing triggering the mentality of men.
The mentality of men is to blame. Especially in groups, due to peer pressure and trying to be one of the guys.
Mentality of boys not men.
the mentality of some men
80% mentality 20% clothing.
Seriously? Women woo at men too
I dress like poop and I still get creeps lol
mentality of men, because you simply don't act like that if you're a normal person
yes ofcourse try not to provoke men
. men will be men... sometimes Damon's
Mentality in response to the clothing
I've been to places where the women cat call guys.
Role reversal!
what does that have to do with anything lmao
@kkendall that in some countries, girls would love the cat call...
Doesn't answer the question.
women viewing a lot of what is harmless, as harassment. lots of times, ill do something i think is funny, but, they'll find as mean. so, it's all about how you view things
What do you find funny? If many women find it mean, that's an indication of something
again, different views
I asked you to give me an example of what you find funny.
Everyone has different views, but if a majority of women are reacting negatively to what you do that's an indication they find it disrespectful and you should stop.
Some people may find slapping you as hilarious. You find it annoying and painful. Wouldn't you want them to stop?
i mean, if that's what they find funny. a man should be able to take a slap
again, it's all about POV
But he shouldn't have to tolerate that for someone's temporary amusement
Harassing is always the fault of the harasser.
Shocking how people vote clothing
I would say it's mentality of both genders
Ignorance and mental health of men
Both but mostly just cause they're perves
It's just people being rude.
mentality of Men
Duhhh
I got cat called by a cat, SHIT!!
the mentality of some immature men for sure
it takes two to tango.
You'd be surprised. I've been harassed and followed with nothing but my eyes showing.
Both but i vote mentallity.
