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. 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 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 also hate catcalls.

Sameee!!!

Me too! Just say hi beautiful, then I’ll say thank you. Then bye!!!😂 réal simple

Same 😑

Cray May me too!

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.

tony montana 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.

lol just smile and say thank u.....

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

+Natasha AndCompany I dont think you get it...he says it every single time while smoking a pack...its actually a turn off.

+MissLoonely17 Hahahahah LMAOO I have swollen eye right now too!

+Lulexiaa asin....like seriously

amen

+Lulexiaa true, why cant they just do full girl chat

+Sethabile Ngcobo because they hate us T_T

lol yeah i gues

+Tara M Agree!!!!

And yesterday some guy tried it on me and i just gave him the dirtiest look ever for it.

Tara M i agree. Idk what they're on about saying they like it

I agree with you

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.

Batool Abbasi it was funny because we all know Adam wouldn't be cat calling

😂😂😂

+LadyChaos101 YES! This truth..

bah cue no one knows what you're talking about.

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.

Alexa Vittitoe why would you hit on a girl when another guy is present? That is just stupid. They are trying to get laid not start a fight.

+BeyoncéVEVO I need the one at 3:46 it's soo funny lmtao

+Mandy X'O-twod yesssssssss I love her

+BeyoncéVEVO omg greatminds think alke! i said the same thing!!

+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?"

BeyoncéVEVO right!

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

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?

No. She always looks amazing.

Lmao needs a raise yes her make up is always BOMB!! I know I'm a year late

tina Ortega And she actually said she does her own makeup, so she maybe needs a raise? Lol jk

I miss when her make up used to look cute. Now it's basic and bland.

Its tit you

+MsBrooklyn11232 Hello, what's your name?

Hahahahahahahahahahaha

True that

I don't mind the cat calling much

+MsBrooklyn11232 Right? Try hi. Start there.

+Luv4Animexoxo Yup that's exactly what they do in nyc train stations, that happened to my other friend & she's a feminist. (got spat on)

+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.

it's the same way in Philly

Keyah Gordon get some pepper spray and a taser.Problem solved.

+oxbrizzlemynizzlexo What does that mean you mlk...? :\

+Quinta Brown Deriona like you took advantage of it or you used it till you absolutely couldn't anymore lol

oxbrizzlemynizzlexo lol!!! thanks !

+oxbrizzlemynizzlexo I thought she said "you milk that dry" as in take all the advantage you can of it now.

Yup!....just like Frankie Grande does with name dropping his sister. OOOP!

+nj.joh And Loni seems back to her old self!

Yeah i noticed it too. It feels really good :-)

Jahneece Davis I prefer compliments

Harassment? Giiirl

Guy on the street walks past women : your beautiful Women: omg I’m calling the police I just got harassed a stranger just called me beautiful

Who using this Yeah buddy there’s a huge difference from “your beautiful” and most catcalls like “come spend a night in my bed”

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

+CianoXoC LOL me too hahaha

I know- lamao

😂😂😂 I'm in tears!!

I had a guy make a v with his fingers and started flicking his tongue like he was performing oral sex haha I told him to drop dead haha

+Natasha AndCompany omg ewww!! I can't believe he did that!

+Natasha AndCompany girl that's nasty

i had a guy in his mid 20s do the tongue thing to me. Im 15.

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 hate to be catcalled anyway.

+Muriel Melly lol

Jon Jones​ Um I don't care. Do not cat call me. Period.

Jon Jones Are you a troll?

Jon Jones LOL I don't care what is fun for guys if I don't like it

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".

+KW Exactly. I don't think these women walk in the streets alone enough to realize how much of an icky situation it is. :/

Omg is it on KZfaq

i saw it on Facebook but it might be.

Link?

Nohomo

+Zazwa1 #yesyesyes #igetyou

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.

Sometimes that is true although I’m not too sure because I’m 13 and have never been catcalled But JS

same

Shut up

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

You printed that.

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.

+Jennifer Jaramillo Exactly

Right lol😂

Get em girl! Give em hell!!

Ugh yeah I HATE that man!!!!
