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.
