No it's just as infuriating and it's always been one of the complaints women bring up that I always remind them is not just a women problem.
Rbf can seriously negatively impact your life. Especially if you're already physically imposing.

It's about it happening to you once every 10 years or once an hour.
Once an hour sounds awesome but I suppose a person dying of thirst would think that a person drowning was having a great time.
I have never had a woman hit on me, but a gay man did once and the memory of that warms my heart. (I'm not gay.)
But does your now husband know?

If this happened once instead of constantly
You talk about women right ? Because as a man I would love that it would happen all the time
you're assuming that because you don't have to live with the reality.
add in the constant awareness that most rapists occur by men against women and most men are stronger than women.
you wouldn't like theae solicitations or straight up molestation and assaults if you were constantly in danger of being raped and being reminded that men found you attractive or available.
What are you talking about, I said that I as a man would love to be cat called not that I would love that as a woman . I never receive compliment and I can assure you that I would love to be cat called.I don't say that what you said is false (it s not), just that its not what I was talking about.

Constantly, really?

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.
