That's a prejudice. Although usually more humble people do catcall (like men who work in construction), I've seen both handsome and young men doing that. And although more educated men usually don't catcall, I've known handsome men with money who are arrogant and rude with women, just in a less evident and more manipulative way. Also, men aren't always dirty and creepy when they scream compliments to women who walk by the street (yes some are gross but not always)... I've heard many men saying really playful innocent compliments such as "wow you're so cute, you must be a fallen angel" or "your smile is gorgeous today, miss, like sunshine!" And also, if someone says a disrespectful catcall it doesn't matter at all if he is beautiful or ugly, young or old, much less if he has money, I don't see why if someone handsome checks you out (in a creepy way) it's ok and when he's not it isn't, that's very hypocritical.
Kinder Gardner no, they're saying that if a man were well educated and professional, then he would not be catcalling, cause they know better than to do that but I also think you need class and self respect.....
Hello. Or maybe they're saying that's unacceptable until they find the man attractive... Idk "they" weren't specific with the point that was being made
I hate cat calls. Especially when I'm alone. I actually get really defensive. It's not something that's flattering! There's something called a compliment :/
R Kelly Innocent it’s been 2 years and nobody explained so I’ll explain it. Yesterday a guy looked at me in the eyes and complimented me as he walked past. That’s fine, a little weird we’re I come from but it was good. A week ago I guy STRUTTED up to me and YELLED sexual remarks and “compliments” humiliating me. That’s not a complement at all and if you can’t distinguish between the two then you sir are the problem.
@@ReasonAboveEverything No, if a man says you have pretty eyes that is a compliments but yelling sexual remarks to a women is embarrassing, unwanted and catcalling.
Yeah it creeps me out! My mom finds it flattering and she even told me that one day when I don't receive any catcall I would be sad. I said um.. I don't think so. I won't miss it.
There is this old deli man at my grocery store who won't stop telling me i have beautiful eyes EVERY time...like damn i get it...brown eyes are hard to come by.
My love, you should know we Ethiopians have beautiful large eyes! I get told this all the time. And a beautiful smile too. If you have ever seen our paintings it's the large eyes that are emphasized! No one has large eyes like us! A couple months back I was serving as a juror and the secretary who worked for the judge kept telling me that they were talking about my big beautiful eyes in their office after we had left! I'm telling we got a monopoly on the large eyes! 😂
+Aksum Princess lmao so true! My mums ethiopian and i totally get that so often. One time in particular this one customer at the store where i work spent five min just talking about my eyes. The next day i woke up and guess what gurl. One of my eyes were SWOLLEN. My mum was dead ass when she told me it was the "evil eye" lol
You know why cat calling is wrong? The majority of men that cat call do it when a male figure isn't around and the victim is unguarded. You know damn well, they won't do it if her father, brother, or boyfriend were standing there.
Alexa Vittitoe well how are they supported to know if the girl has a boyfriend or not and they have freedom of speech and as long as they are not hurting the girl they can say and catcall as much as they want
bah cue how may men have successfully had sex with a woman after yelling at her in the street? Men know it doesn't work and makes us feel uncomfortable. Even if they had the slightest hope, its still wrong. Bore me later
+bah cue if it's not a power trip then why do the majority of men that cat call do it when a male of the victim isn't present? She's unguarded and doesn't have a relative or significant other around. They never do it when she has a male figure around. That's how you know it's wrong.
With all due respect, Adrienne was looking so damn beautiful. From her hair to the lipstick with that her dress, there aren't any words to do her justice.
+BeyoncéVEVO yo i feel like sometimes people dont understand her references or humor, cuz no one laughs at the funny things she says...I'm like where's your hood knowledge???? You ever seen madtv??? Got hit on at a party on the "wrong side of town?"
+Luv4Animexoxo thats exactly why you have that recent story where this man would hit asian woman over the head with a solid object as revenge because they wouldn't respond to him in the past. I guess in these crazy men's mindset they want to be respected and felt good enough. Instead of look down on. By us women ignoring them, its like a blow to their ego.
+Luv4Animexoxo Reminds me how during my first week of college these dudes try to speak to this girl and she ignored them and they followed her around campus calling her all types of names. I wasn't there for all of that, but I happened to be in the student center when she came up to me crying asking to use my phone to call her mom and she just broke down while on the phone telling the story and saying she wants to come home. I felt so bad for her. I comforted and told her I'll walk her to the rest of her classes for the day. I never seen her on campus again after that day. Poor girl probably dropped outta school after that incident.
Wow, I can't believe I just heard 5 women say they enjoy catcalling... It's a form of harassment, not flattery -_- (Hence the point of the initial news report! Duh!)
Who using this Yeah buddy it’s annoying women don’t appreciate you coming up to them in the middle of a STREET if you wanna talk to a girl do it somewhere more appropriate like a party or social event
If it's something like "you look beautiful/cute" okay, I don't mind. But if it's something vulgarly sexual it's so disgusting. And also if I don't respond that is a hint for you to stop. So fucking stop.
the reason I don't like catcalling is because it makes me feel unsafe, especially as a teenage girl. you hear stories about girls getting assaulted or even murdered for standing up for themselves, and you hear stories about the same thing happening to girls who ignore them, and if I say thank you, I worry that they will think it's an invitation for them to touch me. it's a lose-lose situation. and I know not all men are like that, but how am I meant to know whether the guy catcalling me is safe or not? even if you mean it as a compliment, I can't see your intentions I only see your actions.
Do any of these girls go anywhere alone w/o their husband boyfriend or bodyguard? Because if you're walking through the city alone and someone is calling you in this way, its not fun. I can't be the only one who finds it scary. Maybe I watch too many crime shows but ( on the odd occasion it happens to me)it makes my heart race( not in a good way). Especially if you're alone in an area where there are not many people... some of these men think its harmless and fun and its a compliment to the woman , without stopping to think that you are scaring her.
I am talking about men shouting things and following you around. If someone holds the door for you, says "you are so beautiful", then continues on his merry way that's fine and I wouldn't really call that catcalling.
I don't mind it if it's from guys around my age, but when the men are driving expensive cars and are 60 years old looking for a sugar baby. I want to puke .
The fact that we have not only accepted this form of sexual harassment, but now want it, shows just how much power men have over us. In a world where women are already commodified and objectified beyond belief, we need to say no to this kind harassment especially when you're broadcast on national television. It's just a bad message to women and men. Imagine the sheer entitlement men must have to feel comfortable doing this to women in broad daylight. As a women living in NYC, it happens constantly and it is disgusting at best and frightening at its worst. Women: a lot of times we don't feel like we can speak back to these men out of the fear of something worse happening but we should absolutely not delude ourselves and see this as flattery.
The idea of looking at things in terms of "harassment" and the like is relatively new. It has nothing to do with power, but only how heterosexual interactions between men and women. Men like a lot of things women do for them, and women like a lot of things men do for them. Trying to twist it into something with a negative connotation such as "power" is likely you trying to interpret their intentions as bad since you view catcalling as "bad". People tend to conflate negative behaviours as necessarily being driven by negative motives. Problem is, not everyone has viewed it as "bad" in the first place. Nor do the guys necessarily have any other motive than "expressing their sexual thoughts".
there was an experiment where mothers disguised themselves to see if their son would catcall them (they were known for vulgarly cat calling women daily). They acted like little boys once they realized it was their mother.
I never enjoyed catcalling! It started when I was in high school. It always felt creepy to me when men would turn their heads and you see their eyes scanning up and down your body. Some called me "china", some tapped on the windows as I walked passed a store, some made kissing sounds, etc. I saw my cousin and his friends catcalled back in the day too. They would howl and make animal noises at good looking females passing. Quite disturbing and comical at the same time.
I remembered when the Braxton's went to Italy and the guy cat-called Traci by pinching her on her butt...and she loved it 😂😂😂😂. I heard its flattering if those men in Europe cat- call a woman
I'm sorry but I don't think they should be talking about appreciating catcalling in public. Enough men think they are entitled to women. Too many men think that they are allowed to do whatever to women and we are just meant to appreciate it. Have any of you ever walked down the street with a straight face and had a strange man tell you that should be smiling?
Catcalling makes me uncomfortable. Like if I'm walking down the street don't shout at me that I look fine, don't follow me, don't comment on my body etc. If you think I look nice then come up to me and politely say "I just wanted to let you know that I think you're very beautiful." That's a compliment, something i'd prefer. There's a difference between catcalling and a compliment.
Why am I imagining a man saying, "Ciao, bella!" to Tamera, then whipping a coin baseball pitcher-style at her ass and her screaming, "Ow!" XD XD XD XD XD XD I CAN'T....!!!!!!!!!!
Compliments: “Hey beautiful!” “You look nice today” Catcalls: “Hey baby, spend a night in my bed” “Damn, let me lift up that dress” If you can’t tell, that’s a noticeable difference. I don’t want to be catcalled like that, a simple “You’re beautiful” is not a catcall, it’s a compliment. But asking to lift up my dress and get in your bed is not a compliment.
I wonder how he though "let me lift up that skirt/dress" was gonna go. Ew. I had a guy tell me I was on his "To-Do" list. I asked him how often that pick up line worked for him cause...ew
I completely agree with Adrienne..I love a Catcall from men,especially if I think hes Cute! Its not about what you do, its how you do it...Like they said, theres nothing wrong with it if its cute and Flirty. Not all Catcalls from Men are disrespectful.
Omg I live in NY, and i hate it when old men like in their 50s or 60s making kissing sounds at you or stare you down, ugh its the worst!! I'm with Jeannie, I be feeling violated too when that happens
I like it when guys are like "hey, beautiful" or "good morning, gorgeous". I don't like when the do the cat thing as if they are calling a cat, you know, the 'ch 'ch 'ch thing ? or the whistle or the lips or the cut me off with your car just to say hello.
I remember I was sitting alone at the mall and this guy was like why are you sitting alone ? you are so beautiful 😭😭😭😭😭😭 omfg. he was so damn cute. 😂 I wish I would of got his number😂😂
I learned this from a girl who showed me personally. She walked up to a girl at the cashier after we were done grocery shopping and said "Hi, I really like your hair" and she lit up! Because her hair was unique. So I tried it, the next time I saw a very pretty girl that had green hair and purple lipsticks on and said "Hey, how was your day? I like your lipstick by the way"... She LIT UP and was so happy because she took time to pick that out and it showed. As long as you're genuine, you'll get a great response! Men are dumb, it took a girl physically showing me, for me to understand it!
Julio Chino Martinez yea but do you see how loni discretely shuts down Tamar by agreeing with genie that kissing or hissing at a woman is disrespectful and telling Tamar that flowers is also a way of a man saying you are beautiful.
I don't like cat calling at all... and I didn't know there existed women that do until watching this. And it's NEVER a good looking guy cat calling. Ever. No man with class or respect or actually interested in you would do that. It's always bums. NYC cat calling is the worst. I was walking along the Coney Island boardwalk and this guy legit walked right past me, took his hand and slid it down the entire front of my body while mouthing "damnnn ma" and just kept walking. I was so shocked that I stopped in my tracks but I had to just keep walking even though I wanted to punch him!
People wanna be offended by catcalls because-and let’s be honest- they’re not attracted to the person catcalling... It’s the truth. You wouldn’t be offended if a really good looking guy or girl that was well dressed or put together catcalled you- unless u was underage or already a couple? I’m not saying it’s a good practice, but touchy people blowing it up is extremely exhausting
If we are looking good and a guy doesn't "cat call you" it's sucks, I need to keep it real. And cat calling is also acceptable when is the right guy doing it, If I find the guy attractive, I would be very excited that he finds me hot. Unfortunately we know better, is ALWAYS those type of guys that have zero chance with you that do that.
I like the sweet catcalls like, "you're beautiful" "hey girl" "how you doin'?" I was wearing a BTS sweater with "Love Yourself" on it and a guy went, "Love yourself? I like that." What I absolutely hate is when if you don't respond or smile, they get angry. I've gotten "bitch" on several occasions. I also hate when the catcalling is vulgar: once I was riding my bike through the neighborhood and a car pulls up beside me (immediately I'm ready to defend myself lol) and he goes, "you know where I can find some pussy?" Like wtf. I've been followed too and he kept trying to talk to me and then after 4 blocks he gave up and called me a bitch. It's terrifying.
What on earth?! I’ve been getting catcalled since I was like 8! It has always felt like an assault! Now as a woman, watch out! Just give me a reason. 🥊
Lets be honest it's never the handsome well educated man with a professional career that's catcalling ladies.
Girl, you better tell it like it is! I love compliments but catcalling is just not classy at all.
So if it were, would it be okay..?
That's a prejudice. Although usually more humble people do catcall (like men who work in construction), I've seen both handsome and young men doing that. And although more educated men usually don't catcall, I've known handsome men with money who are arrogant and rude with women, just in a less evident and more manipulative way.

Cray May me too!
"and then he threw a coin at me.." 😂😂😂😂 oh tamera
I JUST SCREAMED! ! !
+SuperGinrummy yeah, he threw the coin to symbolize that she was his wish. You know how you throw a coin in a well or fountain, same thing.
+Phylicia Taylor OMG! That's so cute. I was offended but if what you say was the intention then it's amazing!
+SuperGinrummy nawww not a coin though! LMAOOOOO
+candlecane It is reserved to black women, in fact it is considered an absolute lack of respect to do it to a white woman.
I like compliments. I do not like catcalls. They are two different things to me.

that man ugly asl
The difference is when the man is attractive it's compliment when he is ugly its nasty.
@@ReasonAboveEverything No, if a man says you have pretty eyes that is a compliments but yelling sexual remarks to a women is embarrassing, unwanted and catcalling.
Catcalling is a huge pet peeve and is not attractive to me whatsoever

So when women don't have a man around, they're defenseless victims? As if I actually need my man to defend me if somebody catcalls me.
Alexa Conrad yes girl
Dianna Bishop 🙄 her point is that’s how catcallers view women - as defenseless- because they won’t do it in front of a man
Victim?
hahah tamera...."can you imagine my adam going "eh shaytey whats up"
Batool Abbasi it was funny because we all know Adam wouldn't be cat calling

for real!!
+Zazwa1 Amen, hallelujah.
TOO many men feel entitled to women. And it's usually the most least deserving men. The ones that view women as objects.
yes girl! #preachhhh but they not trynna hear it though.
I cannot walk down the street without someone barking, whistling, or cat calling me and I'm so done with it!
Why does Adrienne have to look so cute all the time?!! lol #NoHomo
Shut up
Woh, thank you, Freddie. > I fainted 😭
Lonnie is crazy funny 🤣🤣
Catcalling makes me uncomfortable. Like if I'm walking down the street don't shout at me that I look fine, don't follow me, don't comment on my body etc. If you think I look nice then come up to me and politely say "I just wanted to let you know that I think you're very beautiful." That's a compliment, something i'd prefer. There's a difference between catcalling and a compliment.
Why am I imagining a man saying, "Ciao, bella!" to Tamera, then whipping a coin baseball pitcher-style at her ass and her screaming, "Ow!" XD XD XD XD XD XD I CAN'T....!!!!!!!!!!
I dont like catcalling. A compliment is one things, catcalling is harassment.
Adrienne just blessed me with her beauty in this video!!! I need to recreate her hairdo.
Ew catcalling is never flattering
+Jennifer Jaramillo Exactly
When Loni said “ THANK YOU FREDDIE” 😂😂
I love Tamar and Tamera's friendship they're so cute and funny:)
Lmao!!! I really just pictured Adam cat calling 😂. And Loni "thanks freddy!" dead 😂😂😂💀
lol love this!!! A great catcall can brighten up your day!! Hey Beautiful! I love NY accents Hey Ma!!
Sometimes that is true although I’m not too sure because I’m 13 and have never been catcalled But JS
Compliments:
“Hey beautiful!”
“You look nice today”
Catcalls:
“Hey baby, spend a night in my bed”
“Damn, let me lift up that dress”
If you can’t tell, that’s a noticeable difference. I don’t want to be catcalled like that, a simple “You’re beautiful” is not a catcall, it’s a compliment. But asking to lift up my dress and get in your bed is not a compliment.
I wonder how he though "let me lift up that skirt/dress" was gonna go. Ew. I had a guy tell me I was on his "To-Do" list. I asked him how often that pick up line worked for him cause...ew
Yep
I completely agree with Adrienne..I love a Catcall from men,especially if I think hes Cute! Its not about what you do, its how you do it...Like they said, theres nothing wrong with it if its cute and Flirty. Not all Catcalls from Men are disrespectful.
Omg I live in NY, and i hate it when old men like in their 50s or 60s making kissing sounds at you or stare you down, ugh its the worst!! I'm with Jeannie, I be feeling violated too when that happens
Whistling i absolutely dislike!!!! Omg im not a dog smh
Tamera: “and then he threw a coin at me”
Tamar: “WHAT!?”
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Tam: it's all about delivery
Also Tam: then he threw a coin at me and I fell for it😂
I like it when guys are like "hey, beautiful" or "good morning, gorgeous". I don't like when the do the cat thing as if they are calling a cat, you know, the 'ch 'ch 'ch thing ? or the whistle or the lips or the cut me off with your car just to say hello.
same
Adrienne is really working that lipstick 💋
Tamera looks lovely and Adrienne looks pretty love her dress!
Tamar looks like an elegant VISION
You printed that.
Adrienne did the bonquiqui😂😂😂 "Welcome to king burger where we do it ur way, but dont get crazy".
I remember I was sitting alone at the mall and this guy was like why are you sitting alone ? you are so beautiful 😭😭😭😭😭😭 omfg. he was so damn cute. 😂 I wish I would of got his number😂😂
Tamera "Aye shawty what's up?" I loved how she said it, lol.
Lmaooo @ Adriene " like Damnn ma " she's so Ny love her
I learned this from a girl who showed me personally. She walked up to a girl at the cashier after we were done grocery shopping and said "Hi, I really like your hair" and she lit up! Because her hair was unique.
So I tried it, the next time I saw a very pretty girl that had green hair and purple lipsticks on and said "Hey, how was your day? I like your lipstick by the way"... She LIT UP and was so happy because she took time to pick that out and it showed. As long as you're genuine, you'll get a great response! Men are dumb, it took a girl physically showing me, for me to understand it!
looking back at these videos when tamar was still on the show, i realize that tamar didnt really like jeanie, she disagrees with her on every topic...
Julio Chino Martinez yea but do you see how loni discretely shuts down Tamar by agreeing with genie that kissing or hissing at a woman is disrespectful and telling Tamar that flowers is also a way of a man saying you are beautiful.
I love how honest they are😂
I don't like cat calling at all... and I didn't know there existed women that do until watching this. And it's NEVER a good looking guy cat calling. Ever. No man with class or respect or actually interested in you would do that. It's always bums. NYC cat calling is the worst. I was walking along the Coney Island boardwalk and this guy legit walked right past me, took his hand and slid it down the entire front of my body while mouthing "damnnn ma" and just kept walking. I was so shocked that I stopped in my tracks but I had to just keep walking even though I wanted to punch him!
“Come here girl...NO!” IM WHEEZING
I don t like it at all, I found it disrespectful sometimes and embarassing. But, like Tamera said it s also the way they say it.
Loni catcall I DIED!!💀😂 " Hey, baby💖 do fries go with that shake"😂😂 DEAD💀😂 I love it!😍😍
In Nigeria they do the kisses catcalling you only know if you have went to Nigeria
Ugh yeah I HATE that man!!!!
wow Adrianne looks so beautiful. She is so stunning
Honestly, I don't like catcalling. I rather hear a polite compliment. Then possibly chit chatting.
I’m not gonna lie, these were some fun times watching the real 😂
Tamar : "ooh , ooh , ooh . pick me" *raising her hand*
Me : *Laughing Very Hard*
'ahh thank you Freddie' I died at that😂
I wish the women research the issues more. There is a difference between complementing a woman and catcalling. Catcalling is never okay.
Love being from NYC LOL tamera: you’re u think aiden will ever say ‘yeah ma’
Truth. Love this show
People wanna be offended by catcalls because-and let’s be honest- they’re not attracted to the person catcalling...
It’s the truth. You wouldn’t be offended if a really good looking guy or girl that was well dressed or put together catcalled you- unless u was underage or already a couple?
I’m not saying it’s a good practice, but touchy people blowing it up is extremely exhausting
I love Tamar's look here. It's a classic look that she carries off well. Much more attractive than her usual style.
If we are looking good and a guy doesn't "cat call you" it's sucks, I need to keep it real. And cat calling is also acceptable when is the right guy doing it, If I find the guy attractive, I would be very excited that he finds me hot. Unfortunately we know better, is ALWAYS those type of guys that have zero chance with you that do that.
Right lol😂
Not in front of you Tay TAY but he WILL “Daaaaamn girl” 😂🤣
The only time I enjoyed cat-calling was after my breakup and I was still hurting over the end of our relationship...
lol I feel like we're friends. Over here laughing like I'm in the conversation.
Tamara looks beautiful !
Haha I love this video. Adrienne and Loni are crazy !
I like the sweet catcalls like, "you're beautiful" "hey girl" "how you doin'?" I was wearing a BTS sweater with "Love Yourself" on it and a guy went, "Love yourself? I like that." What I absolutely hate is when if you don't respond or smile, they get angry. I've gotten "bitch" on several occasions. I also hate when the catcalling is vulgar: once I was riding my bike through the neighborhood and a car pulls up beside me (immediately I'm ready to defend myself lol) and he goes, "you know where I can find some pussy?" Like wtf. I've been followed too and he kept trying to talk to me and then after 4 blocks he gave up and called me a bitch. It's terrifying.
Army
Adrienne's makeup MY GAWD
3:47 I'm Screaming LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOO "Daaaaaaaaamn maa" x'''D
Loni’s always gonna bring it 🤣🤣... “I do the catcalling!”
What on earth?! I’ve been getting catcalled since I was like 8! It has always felt like an assault! Now as a woman, watch out! Just give me a reason. 🥊
Get em girl! Give em hell!!
Jeannie has me rolling with the disrespectful catcalling lmao!!!
Tamar doesn't stop, she is REALLY annoying !! I don't get her attitude towards Jeannie. Sorry its disrespectful
Yea, it's all about the delivery imo..oh and being respectful when I'm not interested.
