Calling someone fat is not an insult and is in no way a good comeback, even if it’s “for a good cause.”

[Video] Watch Men React to a Video of Their Girlfriends Being Catcalled

[Video] Watch Men React to a Video of Their Girlfriends Being Catcalled

In a much-needed experiment, Cosmopolitan arranged for three women to be recorded casually walking around New York City, documenting all the harassment and catcalling they endured on their journey. From men that gawked to others that stalked, after it was all said and done, the ladies’ boyfriends watched as their girlfriends were hit on and followed in the streets. Finally guys can see the female…

Here’s an important reminder for people flipping out over ‘catcalling’ video

Here’s an important reminder for people flipping out over ‘catcalling’ video

@MattCover Anytime feminists can find a Thing™ which happens primarily to women, it becomes a Situation™

Yep. And the viral “catcalling” video has become a full-blown Situation™.

But there’s one detail that a lot of the Outrage Brigade seems to be overlooking:

It's worth noting that the catcalling video was filmed in one of the most Liberal cities…

Had a lesson today about that catcalling video, we were basically having debate. One girl said the woman was wearing really tight jeans causing attention to her body. [???] Another girl said that she doesn't think it was assault because she's a grown woman and can tell the men to stop. - Okay, first of all, you can go through assault any age. It being 16 or 26. Its still assault. You saying 'she's a grown woman' doesn't justify anything. Being a grown woman these days doesn't seem to mean anything these days. Secondly, she couldn't defend herself because the men would most probably get upset and it go one way or another. Them becoming defensive and calling her a 'bitch' or 'you're ugly anyways.' There was a woman who got killed for trying defend herself so please be more open minded about these situations. Thx!

I have something to say about this catcalling business. My grandmother taught me that my manners were the first thing people noticed about me so I should always be friendly, and at about the age of 12-13 I was allowed to walk from my house to the shopping centre alone to meet my friend. On the way back I past by a few landscapers on their lunch break at a house in my neighborhood and of course I said a simple "Good afternoon" to them. Immediately I was bombarded by whistling, shouts to come over there, sexual innuendos in spanish that I understood because of a spanish boy I knew in school who taught me them as a joke, and comments about me being a bitch when I hurried away. Keep in mind I was only about 12 or 13! No matter how a child woman reacts, she's always sexualized, objectified, and threatened wether the threats are direct or not a small child who just wanted to walk home to grandma woman will never feel safe walking past men.

So I'm glad that parody videos of the Catcalling video are coming out.  Not because of it's racism.  But because harassment against women is a joke. Yay world.

I can't help but be upset about the video of the "hot man" walking through New York City for three hours in response to the video of a woman walking around for ten hours because people are using the reactions in the man's video to say "it happens to men too!" when in actuality, they're looking at two different things. In the video of the woman walking in NYC, a lot of reactions were not only sexually forward, but also invasive and/or violent when ignored by her. In the video of the man walking around, sure, he gets a few similar reactions such as calling out from afar, but none of the interactions became violent, insistent, or vulgar. The fact that there are men who think that the two are the same is really worrisome for me.
