and men don't start cat calling women after they reach what is thought of as an "appropriate" age to harass someone.

Do you have any actual studies on this rather than YouTube videos? You know, the ones that show you raw unobscured data? Because I can take a camera to the main plaza, ask 100 women if they ever had insert experience till 3 out of a 100 say yes, interview them, cut it together, and make it seem like its happening to every single one of them. Data obscuration is the easiest way to manipulate outcomes of studies.

yep, this case study records about 10 cat calls per hour.

they studied the YouTube comments, most of which dismissed or defended the behavior, as you are doing.

there are many studies and videos about common, everyday open harassment against women.

you should try talking to some of the women in your life.

ask them what it's like for men to make solicitations end comments about their appearance in public and how often it happens.

then ask how old they were when they first harassed or molested.

your assumptions and implications from your comment show that you have no experience here; these talks will be enlightening for you.

The single most important benefit of getting to be an old woman is I don't have to deal with this shit anymore.
