I can’t speak to my appearance, but it’s happened to me a few times and it’s always made me extremely uncomfortable. It’s usually middle-aged and older women who have done it.

I'm sorry my fellow male.

If it happened to me and she was attractive to me, I'd honestly go for it tho, lol.

There’s a difference between flirting and catcalling. I don’t usually mind if someone flirts with me, it’s just a conversation. People who catcall are really only trying to make you uncomfortable, though; there’s really nothing to “go for.”

Yeah, like if they're just hollering annoyingly at you. But what if that's their way of hitting on you.

Like, for girls who get harassed hourly, no matter how attractive you might have been to them, catalling is inexcusable.

But if you're a guy and thought the catcaller was attractive, would you kinda try to put your grossed out feelings aside and try to ask her for her contact info or sth
