When has catcalling EVER worked?! It’s not cute or charming, it just makes the catcaller look slimy and makes the victim feel slimy. Women don’t like it one bit, we don’t see it as a compliment.
Ragnar's Finest Bruh. There’s nothing wrong with any of that. If a girl wants to act like a guy, great. If a girl wants to go have sex, good for them. There’s nothing wrong with it.
The vast majority are black and latino, though. American feminists wanted massive Third World immigration, and now they are seeing first-hand how Third World men treat women. Reap what you sow, ladies.
the first time i ever got catcalled i was 9, in my own neighborhood. it was terrifying, and i was so confused about what happened. i'm now 14, and it's never stopped.
I'm sorry that you had this happened to you at the age of 9 and 14 especially the age of 9 that is sick and nasty and no child of any age should be harassed like that I don't care if your 19 keyword teen still a child. And for grown men to do this knowing that your a child acting they didn't know it's very sick and concerning
Ikhenaten Nzeribe a person walking down the street minding their own business is a “perpetrator”? Give me a break. Go crawl back into your hole, you moronic incel.
@@BlackPrimeMinister excuse me? Feminism is not hateful or a religion of any kind...it’s a range of social movements, political movements, and ideologies that aim to define, establish, and achieve the political, economic, personal and social equality of the sexes.
starchy abyss shut the fuck up u how is it bad when a guy says "hello" or says " how you doing beautiful" some of u females need to get over y'all selves grow the fuck up
www.advocate.com/crime/2014/09/04/2-studies-prove-domestic-violence-lgbt-issue funny that lesbian women care so much for women but they batter women at a far higher rate than men do.
***** yup the problem with this video is that it's portraying simple "hello" as harrassment. The reason why it's mostly black and latino men doing it here is because the "bait" they chose is the type black and latinos like - a chunky woman with a big arse wearing a tight pair of jeans. whites and asians in general prefer slimmer women - Thus ironically this unbearably politically correct video is in fact, inherently racist
Me too, Im Lesbian and I've never had women cat call me. But I also think some of the girls in this videos were being dramatic. comments like "How you doing?" "Good evening/afternoon" "You're beautiful" When people say these things to me I feel flattered. I don't get offended over someone reaching out to make a connection as long as its not crossing sexual boundaries.
I really love that some of the men apologize and explain that making the woman uncomfortable wasn't their intention. Its a simple conversation that could save so many people from being made to feel like an object, it gives me hope 💝
how is it possible that i had to wait so long before i could find this comment?!? it's all about communication. respectful communication. we have same problems here in germany and it makes me fear to get the society split in two pieces. i can easily respect the women's wish that men would accept, that women keep the right to decide when they feel unsafe. but the result of it can only be one thing: silence. now, it's up to me to feel unwell with the thoughts on a SILENT SOCIETY.
@@Kaktuskastl fax people saying hello and stuff should not be considered cat calling. Ik some people dont want to be approached by strangers and them ignoring passes the hint. That part isnt that bad.
Yeah it still is. No matter who it is or what they're saying it'll make you feel scared and vulnerable and disgusted. It's disgusting to know that if you're just walking home from school or from work minding your own business living your life, there are loads of people around you looking at you like you're a piece of meat or their target. Any kind of unwanted attention is weird, especially as a woman because you know that those guys could seriously harm you. My friend got punched in the head by a random guy at a bus stop who didn't even talk to her, for no reason, not robbery or anything she was only 17 at the time. That sort of stuff happens, and even just a hello is enough to make you afraid and uncomfortable
People in the comments are saying "just dress modestly and they'll leave you alone". That argument has been proven false over and over again. It doesn't matter what your wearing, there are still jerky people in this world.
Exactly, that's just bs. I've gotten catcalled wearing a band shirt with skater shorts, and once with overalls and some guy tried to get my number. Wear whatever the hell you want, it's the creeps fault for harrasing you.
It's because there is no "patch" for this problem. The problem is the system itself. Anyway, I saw the end to this argument after seeing people discuss it for ages. The solution they came up with was; Guys don't look or catcall, women dress modesty.
I love how he says middle-aged men didn’t even know this problem exists!!! It’s almost exclusively middle-aged men that are doing the harassing! Even if you don’t harass women yourself, you damn sure know this exists. GTFO of here dude
@Peppermint Snowdrift Why are you assuming he/she is a feminist? This video didn't even have nothing to do with feminist it was simply about catcalling in NY, its disgusting and as a normal human being you should know that. Especially as a GUY we need to have respect
Eden Hazard seriously, it was different men catcalling her. I didn't get the impression that she was showing certain types doing it, no woman/ man should feel unsafe or have to go through that.
Eden Hazard The guy who edited the video included a small number of white men. The woman said they were from many races but the editor wanted to make white dudes look like angels when he removed most of them from the 10 hour video.
Mr. R the majority is Latino/black men though. It's just from my personal experience and I've been followed by many men outside of my street which is a culdecsac and I always go biking but everyone I do I end up getting followed my some sick man!
I know, right. My 96 year old mum was complaining the other day that men don’t comment on her beauty anymore. I’m just grateful for the positive attention.
ya boi skinny penis well sure but why can’t women walk around however they want without getting rude comments. It don’t matter how old we look it still makes me and other girls uncomfortable
ya boi skinny penis me personally don’t really care about nice comments i take them as a compliment. But i had a couple in counters that really creeped me out. And it’s not like a look 18. I don’t wear a lot of make up and i’m also only about 5”3.
Lionel Messi It honestly depends in how you meant it. If you were trying to be a creep then wth But if you are just a nice person that doesnt mean it rudely, good job for stopping and respecting people's opinion!
Christ people are insane. I get that catcalling is annoying and uncomfortable for some but that about it, but dammit your comment just show the pure insanity that some people say. I hope you are just a kid.
@@Alex-kf3rm Reading your comment, I think you talk about something you have never experienced yourself, and therefore you should not judge what you don't know. It can be more than annoying and uncomfortable. It can ruin your life. When the street harassement is all day long, like I endured in Paris over three years, 10 times in a 20 min walk to or from work, EACH DAY, it makes you crazy. Sometimes I'd not even get out of my flat from Friday evening to Monday morning for work, because I did not have the strength to get down in the street and hear those men say the same sentences again and again and again. EACH of those men seem to think of themselves as unique, clever, and attractive, but they are kind of all the same, same voice, same words, and same bs reactions (insulting you if you ignore them, insulting you if you just ask them to leave you in peace). And don't forget that street harassement is not only talking in the street. It's also touching, even if it's not depicted in this video. When a man touches your bottom or your breast without warning, without asking, and against your will, this can be already a traumatic experience. And it's even worse when you have already been sexually assaulted. Each man who starts sexual comments, even just whistling (because this is already sexual), brings back this memory to you. You never know how far that man can go. Most of them will never go further than just whistling. But some, they can get mad because you ignored them or because you answered please leave me alone, and they start following you and all. We just want to walk in the street with the same freedom and safety men have.
@@chionodoxa6772Your ignorance shows. You think you walk in the streets less safe than men? Men are the victims of violence in much higher numbers than women. In almost every single metric of being in danger, men are at the top. The truth is you just complain more. Most people behave nice to you BECAUSE you are a woman.
Pariness for real. It scar me! I was around 9-11 and one night I took out my pet for her necessities and this man kept hollering me. Got to scared ran back home and let her do her thing in my small patio. My mom was not pleased 😂
I was in, like, second grade when I was first cat called. It was a fifth grader that pulled up his shirt and began to move his hips in a very inappropriate manner. I was so little I didn't know what it was and just rolled my eyes. I still felt like an object even when I didn't know what cat calling was. I didn't report or anything because I didn't understand.
I was in 2nd grade too. I was in the back of the line going to art class and the person 3 people in front of me was taking too long. someone asked me if I wanna see their abs and I gagged and said "EW!! NO! IM TELLING THE TEACHERRR" And that kid rarely ever spoke to me after that
I was walking to the t on my way to work and a guy called out, “hey princess you’d be prettier if you smiled” and I just responded that maybe if he was better looking I would smile more
I'm a man, and the question I always ask other men when it comes to stuff like this is, "What if some knucklehead catcalled your wife/sister/mother/insert other female relative?" You'd be ready to kick the living you-know-what out of them. I have two sisters, and I know for a fact if I saw it happen to one of them I would have no problem coldcocking the dude. So don't do it to other women. I also think that particular woman has the right approach with the cards. A lot of men think it's a compliment to women, and don't realize that to them it's just plain creepy. Paying a respectful compliment to a woman you think is attractive is one thing, being a douchebag is another. We as men need to be educated and just be respectful to women, it really ain't that hard.
P Another reason why your comment is retarded is because some women like the attention and a secret except they're being hypocrites to the men that they don't want it to come from because they're looking at them and discriminating against the men for looking a certain way They are really good looking women no matter how old they are young or Older all want complimenthey're just picky about who they want it from so they're being hypocritical
I was first catcalled at 11 too. Always blows my mind when people put the blame of catcalling on women. One of the boldest I’ve gotten was a man pulling up next to me in his car while I was walking home at 16 years old, insisting he knows me, and asked how much I charge.
oh god me too, i had a man pull up to me as i was walking home at 15 (in sweatpants and a zipped up coat) and because he was at a light and i was waiting to cross, i couldn’t leave. he sat there and screamed at me “you’re very beautiful!!” in broken english and begged me to come in his car, i yelled no at him and the dude turns right into the parking lot right behind me, gets out and starts towards me, so i bolted across the street. crazy people
My first job at 15 I walked to work and a guy in a white van tried following me and getting me into his van. It was terrifying. Since then I've had multiple experiences to the point where I've had to change my routes to get to work so I can avoid it.
Lol.. He probably asked you that based on how you conducted yourself.. He wouldnt have asked that if you were dressed for bible study... How you act and present yourself DOES bring out the creeps whether you believe it or not....and at age 11, maybe you were budding & he found you attractive!!
I’ve been catcalled since a young age, I was 11 or 13 when it happened. I was in my parents home country and I remember creepy old guys whistling, howling, etc. It was so gross!! The scariest one was when I was walking around the farmers market (in the same country) and a man grabbed my hand and another tried pulling me away from a crowd. Thankfully I was holding onto my moms hand, men suck
The Devil Himself your profile speaks for you already lol, people are crazy everywhere so it doesn't matter where you are, thank god I have security where I live, im so easy to scoop up and run away with
The Devil Himself I had a protective side until my younger family members surpassed me in size and now its the other way around, my niece gives me piggy back rides and carries me princess/bridal style they don't really take me seriously
Rip I was in the Philippines and they have these weird taxi things and a man squeezed my butt.. I was TEN at the time (it was a while ago so I didn't do anything against him)
A friend of mine almost got raped once while waiting at a bus stop and broke a rib after fighting back. Fkn hell....I wish I had been there for her but my stupid ass didn't want to come along when they asked me out that day :(
Hazel Blake Everything is for a reason, I understand that you feel guilty or bad for not being there for her, but what if something worse happened to you that day? Remember it's not your fault, the fault is from the idiots who tried to rape your friend
oil No, extremists who call themselves feminists are a bad thing. If the headlines only focuses on normal feminists, rather than the extremists, you wouldn't think that.
I hate that everything always has to do with race. It was something about cat calling not racism. Not everything is racist for goodness sake. - im looking back at this comment and i hate the way i worded this. many things for sure have to do with race and im sorry if this came off insensitive, I didn't mean to sound rude but i understand if it came off like that. anyways, i know many people deal wit racism every single day, but i didn't like how they took thee topic of catcalling and turned it into a thing about race.
Dakota White Exactly! How the hell do they portray this as being racist?????? It has nothing to do with race. Why do we have to bring race inton EVERYTHING these days???
+frooty loops1233 please if you read further comments there's white people saying its mostly black and latino people cat calling what the fuck does that have to do with it this..this is about awareness not what race catcalls the most
Right....This is bull shit.... even the saying that's a nice dress wasn't cat calling ..like the guy said it was a compliment. Some people feel brave to give someone a compliment. So what do I start naming off every girl and women who chased me since the 3rd grade and touched me inappropriately in crowds at parties in hs ,college and clubs. C'mon people ....
It’s entitlement, privilege, and not being held accountable. Men are taught that this is their world, and we are here to serve them. It’s done on purpose for control.
“It’s my freedom to holler at you.” Actually, NYC has rules against this. If you make unwanted r rated comments to a person on the street it’s considered a sexual based crime and can get you fined.
@@bosniakslayer6614 “I haven’t been catcalled” So if you haven’t experienced it, don’t say it’s not a big deal. Also when you ignore catcalls it can turn into threats
@@bosniakslayer6614 okay, did I ever say the Holocaust was NOT a big deal? No. The difference is you said that catcalling was NOT a big deal. I’m not gonna continue to argue with you because based off your spelling and your grammar you’re obviously a thirteen year old boy. Don’t worry about getting kidnapped. They’d be so annoyed with you that they’d just bring you back
@@bosniakslayer6614 “I’ve never been catcalled, but I know it doesn’t negatively impact their lives at all. Even though everyone who gets cat called says they don’t like it and a lot of people are afraid to go outside alone because of it! But I totally know what it feels like!”
I gots a story I remember playing football with my friends in the park. We’re all Muslim so we were extremely conservatively dressed. Long dresses (called abayas) and hijabs. So these worker men that were renovating an old pub across the street just pass us, they wolf whistled and said stuff like ‘damn girls’. I felt disgusting and dirty, like a piece of my innocence was ripped from me. I was only 12 at the time and my friends ages ranged from 11-16. I learnt that day that catcalling has nothing to do with how you dress but just the fact that you are a ‘vulnerable’ girl/ woman.
For the men out there: if you don’t want to hear a dude in a prison yard yelling it at you, don’t yell it at a woman on the street. That’s probably the closest thing men can experience that makes them feel how women feel when being catcalled. It’s not just a harmless joke/comment, you’re making women feel threatened.
First of all im not defending cat calling or harassment, but those are two completely separate things. Being yelled at by the sex you prefer vs sex you dont is very different. Also why on a prison yard? These women are not in prison yard, they can walk away. Cant do that in prison. Also men yelling compliments at you would not make a man feel threatend. Again, not defending harassment but terrible analogy.
@@teletubbiemidget369: The women can walk away, but some men try to follow them. That can turn into a potential stalker kind of situation. Some men harm women for rejecting them.
@@symonelewis1690 Sure i understand that but its still a terrible analogy since they are very different. Would you say being catcalled on the street would be the same as being locked inside a mens prison together with the person cat calling you? In public cat calling can potentially but not often lead to danger, in prison that is almost guaranteed danger since they are criminals. And if you get attacked no stranger will try to help.
I don't understand cat calling. I see attractive looking women everyday. I don't say anything to them, unless they ask where something is in the store. I just do the other thing, get a quick look then move on.
4:58 yet another black person calling the race card.. I didn't once think about what color anyone was in this video or the people catcalling. Yet this woman MADE me think of it.
This isn't playful banter, this is harassment. But I suppose catcalling is not as bad as a silent creeper who says nothing but just follow you around...... now those are dangerous. And why do they have to make this a Black and White issue? Soo stupid.
iDon'tCare ok that’s uncalled for, firstly in the original video there was a lot of comments that were inappropriate even if it isn’t harassment it’s inappropriate. Some however were nice and sweet like “have a good day”.
iDon'tCare dude most of us might have not watched the original video, it’s not about fucking feminism at all. Yea I agree, that good morning is not a insult but you starting on that guy/girl it was uncalled for as they might have not watched the whole video Have a good day
iDon'tCare and your not a fucking feminist if you don’t like people talking to you. If you get cat called all the time your gonna think they just want you for shit
iDon'tCare in this small clip alone more than 2 guys were creeps and saif inappropriate things so I highly doubt the veracity of your comment. If it was so benign and just friendly what they are doing, why do they only do it to women and not other men? And why do they get mad when other men do it to their moms/daughters/sisters/partners? Could it be because it's sexual? And why don't they stop when they know it makes the women uncomfortable and why do they often become hostile if you confront them or angry when you actively ignore them?
In the same way that this video is aiming to educate men on a problem they don't naturally live with, POC experience negativity that white people simply don't understand, and that's not going to change if they don't point our the toxic behavior because we might not even realize we're doing it.
boys need to be raised in a family home where they see their dad respect their mom and other women. waving signs, name calling men or "educating" them isn't going to fix the problem.
Catcalling is everywhere. Sometimes they even take a picture or video of you. Times like these makes me wish I learned Kung Fu and drop kick the s**t out of suckers.
Just buy this little thing to electrocute the crap out of people, and believe me girl, electrocuting someone that is harassing you Is the best thing ever
A couple of middle aged men were checking me out on my recent 13th birthday. I was in the city with my older sister, and like 4 of them (at different times) just deadass cut my eye and leaned forwards, stopped what they were doing and stared. I looked away immediately. Never in my life have I felt so uncomfortable. That was the day I found out that someone staring that long wasn’t in fact a “staring contest” or something of the sort but something absolutely disgusting.(New York check)
me and my friend got catcalled by an older male (about 65 years old) and we’re both 13. it was so scary. i’m literally scared to walk there alone now even during daytime ;(
@@larissaleigh4488 I live in a town where a lot of old men have tried to pick up young teenage girls, if I was 12 years old and an old ass guy walked up too me and started making sexual comments if be pretty scared but hey 🤷♀️
You can actually yell back at him, say your under age and it will scare them beyond belief. You can actually stick up for yourself in that case. It would make him feel stupid and of course you can always call for back up. Cant stand that someone his age would do that
Swaggy Fam It’s disrespectful and disgusting and makes women very uncomfortable. So you think that young minors and 12 year old girls and boys should go through this? It’s not being a snowflake because it’s scary and a serious matter.
PuppyGamerGirl A lot of people are telling the victims what to do as tho that will change anything that the criminals are doing. A 12 year old girl can't do anything against a grown ass man so what's the point of telling a little girl to slap a grown man who's out there with such a despicable behavior? If only people focused on stopping those criminals instead of telling the victims what to do (specially when they know that what they're telling the victims doesn't do anything) a lot of things would've been better in this world.
StanleyTheGamer .-. Yeah remember kids When men are staring at your mom in a weird smirk way they aren’t staring because your mom has spinach in her teeth it’s because they are um...thinking stuff... .-.
What's missing in this video is the fact that women have NO PROBLEM with "catcalling" if it's coming from a celebrity or someone they find attractive!!!
Happened a lot to me. My tactic is going to crowded places without making him suspicious he was discovered. I'm very good at mastering my emotions, and this helps a lot. Once they see there's other people around, they got kinda upset and lost interest.
@@katuskibakugou3555 so then its harassment. My point is if the man is only saying Nice comments or whatever than its not a big deal. If they men are touching women than whether they catcalled to begin with doesnt matter it's still wrong
@@bosniakslayer6614 but not every woman wants to hear "nice ass" or "damnnn" everytime the go out you may see it as just compliments but it makes women very uncomfortable
For those saying wear more modestly, I wear the hijab and I've gotten cat called and grabbed in public, so, no. It is not what women wear, it's the men.
Men can't imagine a simple "Hello" ever feeling like a threat because they don't experience that. If men were catcalled by other (larger) men in isolated areas they might start to understand how it feels. The woman is remembering all of the instances when these have escalated in the past, and trying to think ahead how she will respond if it does. Just because sometimes it's only a comment "Hello beautiful," the woman's instincts remember all the times when it was more. Those times also start with some innocuous statement. If she answers back "Hello" it's seen by some of these men as encouragement and interest ("Why did you say 'hello' back if you weren't interested?") Not answering back whips some of them into a fury of indignation, "You're not good enough to say hello to me??"
Clemdane exactly. it makes me angry whenever someone says that men saying “hello” to a woman they don’t know who is walking in the streets is not a big deal. they don’t greet women out of politeness since men wouldn’t say “hello” to fellow men or elderly passing by it’s always women preferably good looking ones, and it’s because they want something from them and when they don’t get it it can get dangerous
Men greet each other in passing all the time. But point taken. We should all quit with the public “hellos” and “meeting ppl in real life” from now on. Back to tinder and pornhub, guys.
I agree- I'd rather men on the street didn't acknowledge me at all, because I never know when I'm going to offend him by responding "wrong". If I ignore him, is he going to start following me and talking louder, or grabbing me to get my attention? If I take the polite route and say thank you, is he going to take that as encouragement and start following me to talk to me more? If I smile in response or even meet his eyes, will he ask for my number and text me right then and there to make sure I didn't fake it? Then before I know it a predatory man with no boundaries has my phone number. Interactions with strangers who are clearly already sexualizing me are stressful.
Im sorry but a simple hello is not a threat. There are three things that matter in this situation. What is being said, how it is being said, And how it is being perceived. when some guy tells you good morning (which we are all taught as part of our good manners.) you cant really call it catcalling all the time. You cant do that with all men And all phrases.
When men use the woman's clothes as an excuse I get so angry, it's so ridiculous. Why should I have to look through my clothes and choose what wear carefully, because if I wear something that makes me feel pretty i'm scared of being harassed?
ArtisticPixie I mean, if you’re wearing shorts above your thigh...it’s not to make yourself feel good about yourself, at that point it’s sexual. And no, no one should still say that as an excuse, however it’s extremely inappropriate for anyone to wear something like that. If my daughter were to wear something like I’m burning her whole closet and going shopping with her.
Deus Aku these women were not wearing short shorts though. Women and girls get catcalled no matter what they are wearing. I recently got catcalled wearing long black pants, a conservative top, flat closed plain black shoes and a black cardigan covering my shoulders and arms. I was wearing a simple ponytail and minimal makeup. I was walking to work. I started getting catcalled and was almost abducted when I was 12 while walking to school in a uniform for a christian school that went down passed my knees, was not form fitting and was double covered at the chest. I also had sneakers and a messy ponytail usually. I wouldnt say any of the outfits Ive gotten catcalled in were sexy. The only times I've been catcalled wearing more "revealing" clothes is when Im taking out the garbage in front of my apartment. I usually wear shorts and a tank top at home and don't see why I should change just to step out to throw out the trash. Yet men have said the nastiest things to me right in front of my home just for stepping out for a minute. A guy said "mmm! despues se quejan cuando las violan" which means "mmm! Then they complain when they are raped" But Im sure he meant it as a compliment and not to make me feel unsafe just stepping out of my own home. That fucker knows where I live and he thinks I should be raped for no reason other than Im a woman.
@Stunts & Art You clearly can't control your sexual desires if you feel the need to wear sexually explicit clothing and walk outside for everyone to see it and whine about it if people point it out. And chances are those men wouldn't be letting their daughters go out in that clothing anywaysm
@@deusaku4268 men can walk around with no shirt. Men can wear what they want without fear. Bodies aren’t just meant for sex therefor shouldn’t be sexualized all the time. How about self control. People would walk around half naked in villages with more control then “civilized “ people.
its a form of respectability politics...which are bullshit. the idea of "oh you have to dress or look a certain way if you want to be respected"...no. people deserve basic respect REGARDLESS of what they are wearing, or how they look, etc. I don't understand why this concept is apparently so difficult for so many people in this comment section.
I bet it wouldn’t work because I can bet you most of them have herpes or some std but they have the nerve to try and talk you and think you want their nasty behind.
It ruins my day, it’s really upsetting, old men catcall me, in a summer dress, I was just trying to keep cool when it’s boiling hot outside, I’m 14 years old, I’m a little girl, and then old men harass me. I just want to be comfortable.
@@beautyandbrains1695 Yeah, it's totally not that young girls are trying to dress and act like grown vvomen, then complaining when they get treated like such.
I accidently put a dude in a hospital from breaking one of his ribs for following me while catcalling. I normally carried a knife with me,he's lucky I didn't pull it on him.
BradsonMan Self defence and attempted murder aren't the same thing, dumbass. If someone's being sexually assaulted or harassed they have a right to fight back as long as they don't go too far. A persistent catcaller should be grateful if their victims don't punch them in order to defend themselves.
Watercolor Hipster Umm you should be arrested, if this story is true. If the person didn't pose a physical or verbal threat to you then you had no right to assult them. If you felt like you were him followed you should have approached a more public area and called the police. True, the man shouldn't have been catcalling but you shouldn't have assulted them. If your story is true, then I hope you're arrested for your crime.
This is harassment. Period. It makes women feel on display, undressed with men's eyes and unsafe. The fact that we are beautiful or look sharp dressed up is in no way an invitation to harass.
Samy González look at you such a strong woman. Insulting people on the internet. Wow This video says "as an EQUAL i deserve to be treated as a special snowflake princess. Assuming that every comment in my general direction harms my fragile special ass". Get off your high horse.
Omg if you can't read what he said then don't even try. Men are constantly demonized for even greeting people now. I'm a woman and none of that shit was disgusting other than the guy following her. Don't think a man doesn't know how you feel as they also are treated unfairly. When was the last time a guy could cry and public and not get called a baby or gay? Seriously your argument boiled down to you going into a child mode while saying "yap yap". I'm going to agree with the guy you called scum. And you can't say I don't understand because I'm a woman. That was your argument right? Well now a woman is telling you.
The most annoying thing about catcalling is the expectation men have for a response or an interaction. That what makes the "Hey Beautiful," not a compliment. I have gotten yelled at in the streets for not acknowledging them. I've been whistled and honked at. I've had multiple men approach me trying to grab me off the street in daylight with a female friend. I've had men masturbating out of their apartment windows at the age of 13. Or homeless men holding their junk and staring at you in the trains or in the streets following you for blocks. I shouldn't owe anyone anything. I should be able to walk to a destination without the constant harassment and entitlement men have, that when I'm not with a man, I'm up for grabs. It's disgusting and annoying.

i was 9 years old when i was first cat called, my family and i just moved to Mexico at that time and i remember i was wearing this cute skirt my dad bought me. When i was walking home from school i walked pass a lot of 20 year old guys and some other teens, they started to wistle and to tell me that they liked my skirt and some of them got kinda close to me to tell me that i had nice legs, i didn't know what was actually happening so i just said thank you to them. When i got home i told my dad and he told me to not listen to them and to not use that skirt anymore, i was sad b/c i really loved using dresses, skirts and shorts at that time. But then when i was in 4th grade i was getting cat called again buy the 6th graders, then my sister started to get cat called by old guys and it was so disgusting for me to see people staring at her legs and then wistling. Because of that, it's been 6 years since I've used a dress or a skirt, and i just can't get over it b/c it makes me so uncomfortable and scared that someone's gonna cat call me again.
meowsha There are plenty of conservative skirts, shorts, and dresses you can wear. My little sister wears skirts and I do not think she catcalled and she better not either (for their sake). Just make sure it goes to your knees or just above (this rule also applies to men). I believe that is how your supposed to dress for Church, if it is good for church it is good for public wear. Do not let one bad experience make you not dress the way you want. I love dressing nice, and if I do not dress the way I want - I just am not as confident in myself. I do not care IF people call me gay for liking fashion, whatever. Just like you should not care what a bunch of creepy men think -- because no matter how you dress they will still remain creeps. Also, you should not walk alone, even a man should not. Bad things happen, people get robbed, others shanked, others are thought of being "cops" simply for being white.
2SadlyFanatic you can wear whatever you want! If u see a cute skirt or dress at the shops, buy it!!! Your legs are no excuse for street harassment. And if they bother you, TELL THEM TO SHUT THE FUCK UP. YOU SHOULDNT PAY THE PRICE FOR THEIR MISTAKES. You wear that skirt! Go girl!
Hmm I understand the people who want to encourage you, but I personally wouldn't be swayed by that. I also like wearing dresses, but only in the weekends when I'm either home or out with my parents. But I always wear leggings, even when it was super warm this summer! At least it's a bit cooler than pants.. I remember giving one if my friends a tip, she still has the confidence to wear a short skirt so I told her to cut some leggings short. We talked about it because there were guys standing under the staircases at school.. Damn pervs. So now they can't see her underwear! It's different for every person, she just ignores guys and wears short leggings to conceal her underwear, but I avoid skirts in public still. Reading about what happened to you... Seriously, those guys sound.. Like possible rapists, disgusting! Defenitely watch out, maybe if you move to a nicer area you'll feel safe enough to wear what you love freely.
meowsha dont stop yourself for wearing what you love to wear. such asscallers dont like girls and always want to make girls uncomfortable and vulnerable by catcalling. these days even the animals get raped.. its not at all your fault. wear what you like
I'm currently 13. I was walking with my friend and a guy that looks about in his 30s. He stopped next to us and said "you guys looked beautiful today". I was superrrr uncomfortable.
I laughed out loud when the woman said; "You don't see women yelling at men." So I suppose the black girl at the library the other day saying "Hey daddy" to me was just a prank then?
STORYTIME- Our washing machine broke as we had to go to the actual laundry mat, it’s fine bc it’s right by our house, anyways, me and my mom were doing laundry and some guy came up to her and was giving her compliments and that’s okay (let me tell y’all, my mom is thick and she got cakes😂) but anyways then he started to say some sexual things and kept asking her for a date and after she told him several times no and that she was married and had kids, he still didn’t go and started following her around the laundry mat she even said she was going to call the cops if he didn’t leave her alone and he was like “why, I just want a date” . I even told him to get tf away from my mom but he wouldn’t listen. Some lady, who I’m guessing was related to him grabbed him and apologized to us for him disturbing us. We got the hell out of there as soon as our clothes were done
I've been catcalled at least 3 times by men that are old enough to be my dad. It makes me extremely uncomfortable especially considering I'm a minor. If you've catcalled a woman before, take into consideration how that woman feels in that situation, it could really worsen their day.
@@zoegeese9514 Ignore him hon, he is an example of one of those old guys you were talking about. They are sad f*cks and poor excuses for men, so don't class them as one... they don't deserve the honour of being classed as a good man. And despite what the comments would suggest, there are good men out there. Half of the most influential incredible people in my life were good men. This dude just ain't one of them. AND he knows it. He also doesn't care. 🤨 Hence the -ignore him.
I've been cat called loads of times for some reason. Most would ask for my number, and follow me, honk at me ect. I really try my best to ignore it but it got so bad that my boyfriend fears whenever I walk home alone at night. I remember I was walking in front of my own home and someone told me to "hit them up when I turn 18" the fact that they thought I was a minor was creepy and disgusting in itself 💀 (I'm 19). It's annoying af and I want to just take a walk in peace. My bf get anxiety the moment I step out through the door
Ok think theres some confusion. The girl in the grey yoga pants was the one who got cat called. If you look closely at 1:53 the guy didnt even turn around. He looks straight ahead. Lmao
i was never a feminist.. but this video now made me a feminist P.S. Before talking anything negative about me, just know the term "feminism" and its origin
King Tet some catcalling is for harassing women. not every women likes being catcalled. like if someone catcalls a woman by saying out loud how she looks isnt actually a compliment. and why I resemble catcall with bullying is because many women like me feels like we've been picked on by the catcallers for being harassed by them. and it's annoying when people tell us to ignore them by using earphones and all. but why don't we people teach the catcallers to watch out what they do and how they make women uncomfortable?
King Tet why would I change my clothing style for such jerks if my loved oned never oppose to my clothing style? oh come on! even if I cover up my face or body, I still get catcalled and youre telling me to get used to it.. how would you feel if your mother, sister or daughter get catcalled?
I got it all the time too. I started shaming them, saying how pathetic their life must be if they need to beg for attention from random women. They got pissed, but that pretty much shut most of them up. THEN they couldn't NOT see how pathetic they really were.
Megan Holly im 16 and never been catcalled. Idk about you guys. I know im at least decently good looking cause ive been offered to be a model like twice. But maybe its because i live in a small area. Ive had flirters like ask me my name and shake my hand but thats it.
It's adorable how many people sent her death threats for performing on video, but nobody threatened the person that did the filming. Only proves further the point of the video.
I've never been really cat called but the first time I went to America I went to Florida. I was in a surfing shop looking at some t-shirt when all of a sudden a man touched my butt. I turned around and he smirked at me, saying he was sorry and laughed after. He was probably way over 20. I was so shocked and scared I ran off to my parents who were on the other side of the shop. I wasn't even sure what had happened so I never talked about this to my parents. I was around 16 the time.
I was so young and shocked back then. An unknown man touched me, I didn't even speak proper English. The only thing in that situation I was able to do was to run away. If someone touched me now without permission they would know not to do it again, I would make sure of it.
Jazu Neon I would never let someone do that to me! I feel so strong about this subject I would hit them where it hurts and say I want the freedom men have I am done with this sexist nonsense
I wasn't even sure what happened back then once I thought about it more. First I thought it was just an accident but no one would smirk and laugh like that over an accident. As a young teen in a completely new country, running away was really the only thing my brain let me do. I definedly won't let that happen again, now that I'm older and can fight back.

Why are we hiding the identities of the cat callers but putting the victims on full display
It's because the people on full display are the perpetrators and the blurred out people ARE the actual victims ... of feminism: a hateful religion.

Being a lesbian, I somehow manage to not degrade women by screaming about them and their bodies. Apparently, the problem isn't the women here.
but lesbians couples abuse each other physically far more than heterosexual couples - one of the dirty secrets that nobody talks about.
starchy abyss shut the fuck up u how is it bad when a guy says "hello" or says " how you doing beautiful" some of u females need to get over y'all selves grow the fuck up
www.advocate.com/crime/2014/09/04/2-studies-prove-domestic-violence-lgbt-issue funny that lesbian women care so much for women but they batter women at a far higher rate than men do.
***** yup the problem with this video is that it's portraying simple "hello" as harrassment. The reason why it's mostly black and latino men doing it here is because the "bait" they chose is the type black and latinos like - a chunky woman with a big arse wearing a tight pair of jeans. whites and asians in general prefer slimmer women - Thus ironically this unbearably politically correct video is in fact, inherently racist
Me too, Im Lesbian and I've never had women cat call me. But I also think some of the girls in this videos were being dramatic. comments like "How you doing?" "Good evening/afternoon" "You're beautiful" When people say these things to me I feel flattered. I don't get offended over someone reaching out to make a connection as long as its not crossing sexual boundaries.
I really love that some of the men apologize and explain that making the woman uncomfortable wasn't their intention. Its a simple conversation that could save so many people from being made to feel like an object, it gives me hope 💝
how is it possible that i had to wait so long before i could find this comment?!? it's all about communication. respectful communication. we have same problems here in germany and it makes me fear to get the society split in two pieces. i can easily respect the women's wish that men would accept, that women keep the right to decide when they feel unsafe. but the result of it can only be one thing: silence. now, it's up to me to feel unwell with the thoughts on a SILENT SOCIETY.
@@Kaktuskastl fax people saying hello and stuff should not be considered cat calling. Ik some people dont want to be approached by strangers and them ignoring passes the hint. That part isnt that bad.
Yeah it still is. No matter who it is or what they're saying it'll make you feel scared and vulnerable and disgusted. It's disgusting to know that if you're just walking home from school or from work minding your own business living your life, there are loads of people around you looking at you like you're a piece of meat or their target. Any kind of unwanted attention is weird, especially as a woman because you know that those guys could seriously harm you. My friend got punched in the head by a random guy at a bus stop who didn't even talk to her, for no reason, not robbery or anything she was only 17 at the time. That sort of stuff happens, and even just a hello is enough to make you afraid and uncomfortable
theyre not genuinely sorry though. theyre sorry because theyre being confronted and scolded like the children they are

It's because there is no "patch" for this problem. The problem is the system itself.
Anyway, I saw the end to this argument after seeing people discuss it for ages. The solution they came up with was;
Guys don't look or catcall, women dress modesty.

@@Alex-kf3rm Reading your comment, I think you talk about something you have never experienced yourself, and therefore you should not judge what you don't know.
It can be more than annoying and uncomfortable. It can ruin your life. When the street harassement is all day long, like I endured in Paris over three years, 10 times in a 20 min walk to or from work, EACH DAY, it makes you crazy. Sometimes I'd not even get out of my flat from Friday evening to Monday morning for work, because I did not have the strength to get down in the street and hear those men say the same sentences again and again and again. EACH of those men seem to think of themselves as unique, clever, and attractive, but they are kind of all the same, same voice, same words, and same bs reactions (insulting you if you ignore them, insulting you if you just ask them to leave you in peace).
And don't forget that street harassement is not only talking in the street. It's also touching, even if it's not depicted in this video. When a man touches your bottom or your breast without warning, without asking, and against your will, this can be already a traumatic experience.
And it's even worse when you have already been sexually assaulted. Each man who starts sexual comments, even just whistling (because this is already sexual), brings back this memory to you. You never know how far that man can go. Most of them will never go further than just whistling. But some, they can get mad because you ignored them or because you answered please leave me alone, and they start following you and all.
We just want to walk in the street with the same freedom and safety men have.
@@chionodoxa6772Your ignorance shows. You think you walk in the streets less safe than men? Men are the victims of violence in much higher numbers than women.

Pariness for real. It scar me! I was around 9-11 and one night I took out my pet for her necessities and this man kept hollering me. Got to scared ran back home and let her do her thing in my small patio. My mom was not pleased 😂

Deus Aku That's not cat calling, just something called simple flirting, which is totally different.
I was in, like, second grade when I was first cat called.
It was a fifth grader that pulled up his shirt and began to move his hips in a very inappropriate manner. I was so little I didn't know what it was and just rolled my eyes. I still felt like an object even when I didn't know what cat calling was.
I didn't report or anything because I didn't understand.

Stealing that one ☝🏼
I'm a man, and the question I always ask other men when it comes to stuff like this is, "What if some knucklehead catcalled your wife/sister/mother/insert other female relative?" You'd be ready to kick the living you-know-what out of them. I have two sisters, and I know for a fact if I saw it happen to one of them I would have no problem coldcocking the dude. So don't do it to other women. I also think that particular woman has the right approach with the cards. A lot of men think it's a compliment to women, and don't realize that to them it's just plain creepy. Paying a respectful compliment to a woman you think is attractive is one thing, being a douchebag is another. We as men need to be educated and just be respectful to women, it really ain't that hard.
P Another reason why your comment is retarded is because some women like the attention and a secret except they're being hypocrites to the men that they don't want it to come from because they're looking at them and discriminating against the men for looking a certain way They are really good looking women no matter how old they are young or Older all want complimenthey're just picky about who they want it from so they're being hypocritical

I was first catcalled at 11 too. Always blows my mind when people put the blame of catcalling on women. One of the boldest I’ve gotten was a man pulling up next to me in his car while I was walking home at 16 years old, insisting he knows me, and asked how much I charge.
oh god me too, i had a man pull up to me as i was walking home at 15 (in sweatpants and a zipped up coat) and because he was at a light and i was waiting to cross, i couldn’t leave. he sat there and screamed at me “you’re very beautiful!!” in broken english and begged me to come in his car, i yelled no at him and the dude turns right into the parking lot right behind me, gets out and starts towards me, so i bolted across the street. crazy people
My first job at 15 I walked to work and a guy in a white van tried following me and getting me into his van. It was terrifying. Since then I've had multiple experiences to the point where I've had to change my routes to get to work so I can avoid it.
Omg i am sorry that happened to you 🥺
Lol.. He probably asked you that based on how you conducted yourself.. He wouldnt have asked that if you were dressed for bible study... How you act and present yourself DOES bring out the creeps whether you believe it or not....and at age 11, maybe you were budding & he found you attractive!!
Oh my God.
i got catcalled at the age of 12. disgusting.
I'm so disgusted in the men who would do that to a child. I hope your ok and confident in yourself those men mean nothing.
thank you so much, it did really affect me then. But im doing good now :)
slayyy omg me too

I’ve been catcalled since a young age, I was 11 or 13 when it happened. I was in my parents home country and I remember creepy old guys whistling, howling, etc. It was so gross!! The scariest one was when I was walking around the farmers market (in the same country) and a man grabbed my hand and another tried pulling me away from a crowd.

Lol, only in America could this magically become a 'race' issue instead... *rolls eyes.
Catcalling is not a compliment. That is a sexual slur and it's disgusting.
"when they become like weird"...
All strangers harassing you is fucking weird.

A friend of mine almost got raped once while waiting at a bus stop and broke a rib after fighting back. Fkn hell....I wish I had been there for her but my stupid ass didn't want to come along when they asked me out that day :(
Hazel Blake Everything is for a reason, I understand that you feel guilty or bad for not being there for her, but what if something worse happened to you that day? Remember it's not your fault, the fault is from the idiots who tried to rape your friend

I was first catcalled when I was about 9-years-old. It's creepy
I'm now a 12-year-old girl and I still get catcalled
Jatin Mulagund wtf
Jatin Mulagund u a ghost or ...?
That guy who cat called you when you’re 9 is ultimately toasted he got the electric chair
XxxIT'S ROSEMARYXxx yeah i hate when people say hello to me too
catcalled at 9??? pffttt... right, we dont simply believe in womens words, without proof.........
He wasn’t even talking about her colleague, he was talking about another woman who walked by. 🤦♂️
Still it’s weird
Black, White, Brown, Yellow, Purple, who cares. Cat calling is disgusting, whatever color you are! 😤

No, extremists who call themselves feminists are a bad thing.

I hate that everything always has to do with race. It was something about cat calling not racism. Not everything is racist for goodness sake. - im looking back at this comment and i hate the way i worded this. many things for sure have to do with race and im sorry if this came off insensitive, I didn't mean to sound rude but i understand if it came off like that. anyways, i know many people deal wit racism every single day, but i didn't like how they took thee topic of catcalling and turned it into a thing about race.
Dakota White Exactly
Dakota White Exactly! How the hell do they portray this as being racist?????? It has nothing to do with race. Why do we have to bring race inton EVERYTHING these days???
well if you notice, its a black woman who has a problem. everything is about race for any other race except white
+frooty loops1233 please if you read further comments there's white people saying its mostly black and latino people cat calling what the fuck does that have to do with it this..this is about awareness not what race catcalls the most
Dakota White I think it's racist that you think it not racist nah just kidding lol

That's tuff she got the jatty
Right....This is bull shit.... even the saying that's a nice dress wasn't cat calling ..like the guy said it was a compliment. Some people feel brave to give someone a compliment. So what do I start naming off every girl and women who chased me since the 3rd grade and touched me inappropriately in crowds at parties in hs ,college and clubs. C'mon people ....
DAMN MAMI!
It’s entitlement, privilege, and not being held accountable. Men are taught that this is their world, and we are here to serve them. It’s done on purpose for control.
agree
Only solution is women need power and money
My escuse when people cat call:
I'm lesbian
LunaFlower 1 what some of these knuckleheads would say:
“Oh? Threesome?”
Or
“I can make you straight.”
Catcallers don’t care
Aloha Azzie that’s what i thought would happen as well...
maybe better would be “i have a boyfriend who does martial arts”

Dom your setting yourself up for that.

“It’s my freedom to holler at you.”
Actually, NYC has rules against this. If you make unwanted r rated comments to a person on the street it’s considered a sexual based crime and can get you fined.
@@bosniakslayer6614 so why don’t you say it to men then? Would you like it if a man said it to you?
@@bosniakslayer6614 “I haven’t been catcalled”
So if you haven’t experienced it, don’t say it’s not a big deal. Also when you ignore catcalls it can turn into threats
@@bosniakslayer6614 okay, did I ever say the Holocaust was NOT a big deal? No. The difference is you said that catcalling was NOT a big deal.

I gots a story
I remember playing football with my friends in the park. We’re all Muslim so we were extremely conservatively dressed. Long dresses (called abayas) and hijabs. So these worker men that were renovating an old pub across the street just pass us, they wolf whistled and said stuff like ‘damn girls’.
I felt disgusting and dirty, like a piece of my innocence was ripped from me.
I was only 12 at the time and my friends ages ranged from 11-16.
I learnt that day that catcalling has nothing to do with how you dress but just the fact that you are a ‘vulnerable’ girl/ woman.
Kunio Saiki i wish i could just walk with no one saying anything.

I know it’s really annoying

Corality wtf are you even on about?
When your attempt to troll is that obvious it just comes off as pathetic more than anything.
For the men out there: if you don’t want to hear a dude in a prison yard yelling it at you, don’t yell it at a woman on the street. That’s probably the closest thing men can experience that makes them feel how women feel when being catcalled. It’s not just a harmless joke/comment, you’re making women feel threatened.
First of all im not defending cat calling or harassment, but those are two completely separate things. Being yelled at by the sex you prefer vs sex you dont is very different. Also why on a prison yard? These women are not in prison yard, they can walk away. Cant do that in prison. Also men yelling compliments at you would not make a man feel threatend. Again, not defending harassment but terrible analogy.
@@teletubbiemidget369: The women can walk away, but some men try to follow them. That can turn into a potential stalker kind of situation. Some men harm women for rejecting them.
@@symonelewis1690 Sure i understand that but its still a terrible analogy since they are very different. Would you say being catcalled on the street would be the same as being locked inside a mens prison together with the person cat calling you? In public cat calling can potentially but not often lead to danger, in prison that is almost guaranteed danger since they are criminals. And if you get attacked no stranger will try to help.
When he said damn mami I'm 100% percent sure he meant it to the other girl who walked by with Grey
idrink bleach I agree
idrink bleach facttds
Yeah I think your right !
idrink bleach He was talking to the girl in grey not her 😂😂😂😂😂
Doesn't really change anything
I don't understand cat calling. I see attractive looking women everyday. I don't say anything to them, unless they ask where something is in the store. I just do the other thing, get a quick look then move on.
hey everyone. look at this guy. hes the man you need
How is say good morning have a good day have a good evening a harassment
Johnny Nguyen That I will agree on not being harrassment, maybe its just unwanted conversation. Which some women claim is harrassment.
Johnny Nguyen He was following her though,
+hardcoreking52 true but some men take it to far
4:58 yet another black person calling the race card.. I didn't once think about what color anyone was in this video or the people catcalling. Yet this woman MADE me think of it.
Yea, the race injection came out of nowhere. That lady herself is a racist for even bringing that up.
GibsonGaming shes ignorant calm down
Ever feel like pulling out a gun but you know it ain't right ?
This isn't playful banter, this is harassment. But I suppose catcalling is not as bad as a silent creeper who says nothing but just follow you around...... now those are dangerous. And why do they have to make this a Black and White issue? Soo stupid.
iDon'tCare ok that’s uncalled for, firstly in the original video there was a lot of comments that were inappropriate even if it isn’t harassment it’s inappropriate. Some however were nice and sweet like “have a good day”.
iDon'tCare dude most of us might have not watched the original video, it’s not about fucking feminism at all. Yea I agree, that good morning is not a insult but you starting on that guy/girl it was uncalled for as they might have not watched the whole video
Have a good day
iDon'tCare and your not a fucking feminist if you don’t like people talking to you. If you get cat called all the time your gonna think they just want you for shit
iDon'tCare in this small clip alone more than 2 guys were creeps and saif inappropriate things so I highly doubt the veracity of your comment. If it was so benign and just friendly what they are doing, why do they only do it to women and not other men? And why do they get mad when other men do it to their moms/daughters/sisters/partners? Could it be because it's sexual? And why don't they stop when they know it makes the women uncomfortable and why do they often become hostile if you confront them or angry when you actively ignore them?
elines acevedo yea you should watch the whole video instead of just seeing small parts of it and generalizing the whole thing.
Man someone always has to bring up race
In the same way that this video is aiming to educate men on a problem they don't naturally live with, POC experience negativity that white people simply don't understand, and that's not going to change if they don't point our the toxic behavior because we might not even realize we're doing it.
boys need to be raised in a family home where they see their dad respect their mom and other women. waving signs, name calling men or "educating" them isn't going to fix the problem.
Catcalling is everywhere. Sometimes they even take a picture or video of you. Times like these makes me wish I learned Kung Fu and drop kick the s**t out of suckers.

A couple of middle aged men were checking me out on my recent 13th birthday. I was in the city with my older sister, and like 4 of them (at different times) just deadass cut my eye and leaned forwards, stopped what they were doing and stared. I looked away immediately. Never in my life have I felt so uncomfortable. That was the day I found out that someone staring that long wasn’t in fact a “staring contest” or something of the sort but something absolutely disgusting.(New York check)
Damn
me and my friend got catcalled by an older male (about 65 years old) and we’re both 13. it was so scary. i’m literally scared to walk there alone now even during daytime ;(
So you are afraid of someone saying your hot?? your afraid of some words??? dang what a snowflake
@@larissaleigh4488 I live in a town where a lot of old men have tried to pick up young teenage girls, if I was 12 years old and an old ass guy walked up too me and started making sexual comments if be pretty scared but hey 🤷♀️
You can actually yell back at him, say your under age and it will scare them beyond belief. You can actually stick up for yourself in that case. It would make him feel stupid and of course you can always call for back up. Cant stand that someone his age would do that
The same thing happend to me and my friend when we were 13. So uncomfortable
Swaggy Fam It’s disrespectful and disgusting and makes women very uncomfortable. So you think that young minors and 12 year old girls and boys should go through this? It’s not being a snowflake because it’s scary and a serious matter.
I've been catcalled before like...LEAVE MY ALONE IM ONLY 12
Give them a ugly stare girl
Evelyn grande Slap them.
Evelyn grande I was cat called yesterday like damn leave me alone I’m 12 to
PuppyGamerGirl A lot of people are telling the victims what to do as tho that will change anything that the criminals are doing. A 12 year old girl can't do anything against a grown ass man so what's the point of telling a little girl to slap a grown man who's out there with such a despicable behavior? If only people focused on stopping those criminals instead of telling the victims what to do (specially when they know that what they're telling the victims doesn't do anything) a lot of things would've been better in this world.
i was first cat called when i was 9
I’m scared for my mom to go out 😂🙀
StanleyTheGamer that’s why I always go out with my mom I’m taped to her

StanleyTheGamer my mom is scared for me to go out... I tell her she’s being ridiculous because she probably is
StanleyTheGamer lol same
What's missing in this video is the fact that women have NO PROBLEM with "catcalling" if it's coming from a celebrity or someone they find attractive!!!
The scariest thing is when they follow you. You're not sure what's gonna happen, and they could even follow you to your destination.
In that case I'd walk right into a police station
Happened a lot to me. My tactic is going to crowded places without making him suspicious he was discovered. I'm very good at mastering my emotions, and this helps a lot.
Once they see there's other people around, they got kinda upset and lost interest.

For those saying wear more modestly, I wear the hijab and I've gotten cat called and grabbed in public, so, no. It is not what women wear, it's the men.
No one realised that the dude said ”Damn mami” to the other girl with tights passing by 2:29
I jst realised too by seeing ur post
Good eye
I had to come too far in the comments to find this, like noone gunna bring this up 😂
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
I realized that too.
Men can't imagine a simple "Hello" ever feeling like a threat because they don't experience that. If men were catcalled by other (larger) men in isolated areas they might start to understand how it feels. The woman is remembering all of the instances when these have escalated in the past, and trying to think ahead how she will respond if it does. Just because sometimes it's only a comment "Hello beautiful," the woman's instincts remember all the times when it was more. Those times also start with some innocuous statement. If she answers back "Hello" it's seen by some of these men as encouragement and interest ("Why did you say 'hello' back if you weren't interested?") Not answering back whips some of them into a fury of indignation, "You're not good enough to say hello to me??"
Clemdane exactly. it makes me angry whenever someone says that men saying “hello” to a woman they don’t know who is walking in the streets is not a big deal. they don’t greet women out of politeness since men wouldn’t say “hello” to fellow men or elderly passing by it’s always women preferably good looking ones, and it’s because they want something from them and when they don’t get it it can get dangerous
Men greet each other in passing all the time. But point taken. We should all quit with the public “hellos” and “meeting ppl in real life” from now on. Back to tinder and pornhub, guys.
I agree- I'd rather men on the street didn't acknowledge me at all, because I never know when I'm going to offend him by responding "wrong". If I ignore him, is he going to start following me and talking louder, or grabbing me to get my attention? If I take the polite route and say thank you, is he going to take that as encouragement and start following me to talk to me more? If I smile in response or even meet his eyes, will he ask for my number and text me right then and there to make sure I didn't fake it? Then before I know it a predatory man with no boundaries has my phone number.
Interactions with strangers who are clearly already sexualizing me are stressful.
That makes sense
Im sorry but a simple hello is not a threat. There are three things that matter in this situation. What is being said, how it is being said, And how it is being perceived. when some guy tells you good morning (which we are all taught as part of our good manners.) you cant really call it catcalling all the time. You cant do that with all men And all phrases.
When men use the woman's clothes as an excuse I get so angry, it's so ridiculous. Why should I have to look through my clothes and choose what wear carefully, because if I wear something that makes me feel pretty i'm scared of being harassed?
ArtisticPixie I mean, if you’re wearing shorts above your thigh...it’s not to make yourself feel good about yourself, at that point it’s sexual. And no, no one should still say that as an excuse, however it’s extremely inappropriate for anyone to wear something like that. If my daughter were to wear something like I’m burning her whole closet and going shopping with her.
Deus Aku these women were not wearing short shorts though. Women and girls get catcalled no matter what they are wearing. I recently got catcalled wearing long black pants, a conservative top, flat closed plain black shoes and a black cardigan covering my shoulders and arms. I was wearing a simple ponytail and minimal makeup. I was walking to work. I started getting catcalled and was almost abducted when I was 12 while walking to school in a uniform for a christian school that went down passed my knees, was not form fitting and was double covered at the chest. I also had sneakers and a messy ponytail usually. I wouldnt say any of the outfits Ive gotten catcalled in were sexy. The only times I've been catcalled wearing more "revealing" clothes is when Im taking out the garbage in front of my apartment. I usually wear shorts and a tank top at home and don't see why I should change just to step out to throw out the trash. Yet men have said the nastiest things to me right in front of my home just for stepping out for a minute. A guy said "mmm! despues se quejan cuando las violan" which means "mmm! Then they complain when they are raped" But Im sure he meant it as a compliment and not to make me feel unsafe just stepping out of my own home. That fucker knows where I live and he thinks I should be raped for no reason other than Im a woman.
@Stunts & Art You clearly can't control your sexual desires if you feel the need to wear sexually explicit clothing and walk outside for everyone to see it and whine about it if people point it out.
And chances are those men wouldn't be letting their daughters go out in that clothing anywaysm
@@deusaku4268 men can walk around with no shirt. Men can wear what they want without fear. Bodies aren’t just meant for sex therefor shouldn’t be sexualized all the time. How about self control. People would walk around half naked in villages with more control then “civilized “ people.
its a form of respectability politics...which are bullshit. the idea of "oh you have to dress or look a certain way if you want to be respected"...no. people deserve basic respect REGARDLESS of what they are wearing, or how they look, etc.
I don't understand why this concept is apparently so difficult for so many people in this comment section.

BradsonMan Harassing women is breaking the law, but nothing happens anyway, so where do you want to get with that comment?
You should be in prison
BradsonMan Self defence and attempted murder aren't the same thing, dumbass. If someone's being sexually assaulted or harassed they have a right to fight back as long as they don't go too far. A persistent catcaller should be grateful if their victims don't punch them in order to defend themselves.
Watercolor Hipster Umm you should be arrested, if this story is true. If the person didn't pose a physical or verbal threat to you then you had no right to assult them. If you felt like you were him followed you should have approached a more public area and called the police. True, the man shouldn't have been catcalling but you shouldn't have assulted them. If your story is true, then I hope you're arrested for your crime.

That was your argument right? Well now a woman is telling you.
Lindsey L thank you. I would send you a 1000 likes if i could!!!!
The most annoying thing about catcalling is the expectation men have for a response or an interaction. That what makes the "Hey Beautiful," not a compliment. I have gotten yelled at in the streets for not acknowledging them. I've been whistled and honked at. I've had multiple men approach me trying to grab me off the street in daylight with a female friend. I've had men masturbating out of their apartment windows at the age of 13. Or homeless men holding their junk and staring at you in the trains or in the streets following you for blocks. I shouldn't owe anyone anything. I should be able to walk to a destination without the constant harassment and entitlement men have, that when I'm not with a man, I'm up for grabs. It's disgusting and annoying.
Where were you roaming at 13, where there are men masturbating out of windows? That’s something else.
That's why I put my earphones on

And they wonder why we start off with “ I have a boyfriend “ 🙄
i was 9 years old when i was first cat called, my family and i just moved to Mexico at that time and i remember i was wearing this cute skirt my dad bought me.
When i was walking home from school i walked pass a lot of 20 year old guys and some other teens, they started to wistle and to tell me that they liked my skirt and some of them got kinda close to me to tell me that i had nice legs, i didn't know what was actually happening so i just said thank you to them.
When i got home i told my dad and he told me to not listen to them and to not use that skirt anymore, i was sad b/c i really loved using dresses, skirts and shorts at that time.
But then when i was in 4th grade i was getting cat called again buy the 6th graders, then my sister started to get cat called by old guys and it was so disgusting for me to see people staring at her legs and then wistling.
Because of that, it's been 6 years since I've used a dress or a skirt, and i just can't get over it b/c it makes me so uncomfortable and scared that someone's gonna cat call me again.
meowsha There are plenty of conservative skirts, shorts, and dresses you can wear. My little sister wears skirts and I do not think she catcalled and she better not either (for their sake). Just make sure it goes to your knees or just above (this rule also applies to men). I believe that is how your supposed to dress for Church, if it is good for church it is good for public wear. Do not let one bad experience make you not dress the way you want.
I love dressing nice, and if I do not dress the way I want - I just am not as confident in myself. I do not care IF people call me gay for liking fashion, whatever. Just like you should not care what a bunch of creepy men think -- because no matter how you dress they will still remain creeps.
Also, you should not walk alone, even a man should not. Bad things happen, people get robbed, others shanked, others are thought of being "cops" simply for being white.
2SadlyFanatic you can wear whatever you want! If u see a cute skirt or dress at the shops, buy it!!! Your legs are no excuse for street harassment. And if they bother you, TELL THEM TO SHUT THE FUCK UP. YOU SHOULDNT PAY THE PRICE FOR THEIR MISTAKES. You wear that skirt! Go girl!
That's so sad that you have been made to feel like that 😥
Hmm I understand the people who want to encourage you, but I personally wouldn't be swayed by that. I also like wearing dresses, but only in the weekends when I'm either home or out with my parents. But I always wear leggings, even when it was super warm this summer! At least it's a bit cooler than pants.. I remember giving one if my friends a tip, she still has the confidence to wear a short skirt so I told her to cut some leggings short. We talked about it because there were guys standing under the staircases at school.. Damn pervs. So now they can't see her underwear! It's different for every person, she just ignores guys and wears short leggings to conceal her underwear, but I avoid skirts in public still. Reading about what happened to you... Seriously, those guys sound.. Like possible rapists, disgusting! Defenitely watch out, maybe if you move to a nicer area you'll feel safe enough to wear what you love freely.
meowsha dont stop yourself for wearing what you love to wear. such asscallers dont like girls and always want to make girls uncomfortable and vulnerable by catcalling. these days even the animals get raped.. its not at all your fault. wear what you like
"Bet those arms could put together my IKEA furniture! "😆😆😆😆😆😆

finchni but it doesn't matter because it's still catcalling
exactly thats what i saw too
finchni yeah
STORYTIME- Our washing machine broke as we had to go to the actual laundry mat, it’s fine bc it’s right by our house, anyways, me and my mom were doing laundry and some guy came up to her and was giving her compliments and that’s okay (let me tell y’all, my mom is thick and she got cakes😂) but anyways then he started to say some sexual things and kept asking her for a date and after she told him several times no and that she was married and had kids, he still didn’t go and started following her around the laundry mat she even said she was going to call the cops if he didn’t leave her alone and he was like “why, I just want a date” . I even told him to get tf away from my mom but he wouldn’t listen. Some lady, who I’m guessing was related to him grabbed him and apologized to us for him disturbing us. We got the hell out of there as soon as our clothes were done
Laundromat?*
Where are you from ? We say laundry mat
@@lei.aliyay213 you realize that's how you spell laundromat and you pronounce it laundry-mat?
V sips tea you realize I’m not American and we spell it laundry mat ?😂
@@lei.aliyay213 Oof 🤦
I've been catcalled at least 3 times by men that are old enough to be my dad. It makes me extremely uncomfortable especially considering I'm a minor. If you've catcalled a woman before, take into consideration how that woman feels in that situation, it could really worsen their day.
@@AFullNelson what do you mean?
@@AFullNelson The hell! Why?
@@AFullNelson If you wouldn't say it to your own daughter, don't say it to a stranger.
Haven't been cat-called..yet but i have been stared at, looked up & down about like a piece of meat & been ass smacked without consent so...
@@zoegeese9514 Ignore him hon, he is an example of one of those old guys you were talking about. They are sad f*cks and poor excuses for men, so don't class them as one... they don't deserve the honour of being classed as a good man. And despite what the comments would suggest, there are good men out there. Half of the most influential incredible people in my life were good men. This dude just ain't one of them. AND he knows it. He also doesn't care. 🤨 Hence the -ignore him.
I've been cat called loads of times for some reason. Most would ask for my number, and follow me, honk at me ect. I really try my best to ignore it but it got so bad that my boyfriend fears whenever I walk home alone at night. I remember I was walking in front of my own home and someone told me to "hit them up when I turn 18" the fact that they thought I was a minor was creepy and disgusting in itself 💀 (I'm 19). It's annoying af and I want to just take a walk in peace. My bf get anxiety the moment I step out through the door
Ok think theres some confusion. The girl in the grey yoga pants was the one who got cat called. If you look closely at 1:53 the guy didnt even turn around. He looks straight ahead. Lmao
ydh unknwn ohmigod you are 100% right! 😂🤣😂 bet she’s offended now that he DIDN’T catcall her 😂😂
ydh unknwn you r right but the subject doesnt change. Its still sexuell harassment for the other girl at least
That's what I thought when I looked back at it 😂
ydh unknwn omg ur right
She’s fucking thicc
i was never a feminist.. but this video now made me a feminist
P.S. Before talking anything negative about me, just know the term "feminism" and its origin
No... Please don't...
King Tet catcalling isnt fine like bullying isnt. I've been through it and I know it isnt okay.
King Tet some catcalling is for harassing women. not every women likes being catcalled. like if someone catcalls a woman by saying out loud how she looks isnt actually a compliment. and why I resemble catcall with bullying is because many women like me feels like we've been picked on by the catcallers for being harassed by them. and it's annoying when people tell us to ignore them by using earphones and all. but why don't we people teach the catcallers to watch out what they do and how they make women uncomfortable?
King Tet why would I change my clothing style for such jerks if my loved oned never oppose to my clothing style? oh come on! even if I cover up my face or body, I still get catcalled and youre telling me to get used to it.. how would you feel if your mother, sister or daughter get catcalled?
King Tet most of the women dont catcall men because we know how it feels to get catcalled.
I'm 15 and I get cat called quite often. I'm 5'2 so it's not like I look like an adult. It's really sickening.
I got it all the time too. I started shaming them, saying how pathetic their life must be if they need to beg for attention from random women. They got pissed, but that pretty much shut most of them up. THEN they couldn't NOT see how pathetic they really were.
Megan Holly Wow that is fucking disgusting, people piss me off so much. I'm sorry you have to deal with this.
Megan Holly you should carry mace everywhere just in case
Megan Holly Carry pepper spray just in case these guys get a lil cucu
Megan Holly im 16 and never been catcalled. Idk about you guys. I know im at least decently good looking cause ive been offered to be a model like twice. But maybe its because i live in a small area. Ive had flirters like ask me my name and shake my hand but thats it.
It's adorable how many people sent her death threats for performing on video, but nobody threatened the person that did the filming. Only proves further the point of the video.
I've never been really cat called but the first time I went to America I went to Florida. I was in a surfing shop looking at some t-shirt when all of a sudden a man touched my butt. I turned around and he smirked at me, saying he was sorry and laughed after. He was probably way over 20. I was so shocked and scared I ran off to my parents who were on the other side of the shop. I wasn't even sure what had happened so I never talked about this to my parents. I was around 16 the time.
Jazu Neon oh god
Jazu Neon aww, don't let it happen again and like say "that made me uncomfortable" so even if it was an accident he would know not to do it
I was so young and shocked back then. An unknown man touched me, I didn't even speak proper English. The only thing in that situation I was able to do was to run away. If someone touched me now without permission they would know not to do it again, I would make sure of it.
Jazu Neon I would never let someone do that to me! I feel so strong about this subject I would hit them where it hurts and say I want the freedom men have I am done with this sexist nonsense
I wasn't even sure what happened back then once I thought about it more. First I thought it was just an accident but no one would smirk and laugh like that over an accident. As a young teen in a completely new country, running away was really the only thing my brain let me do. I definedly won't let that happen again, now that I'm older and can fight back.
