CATCALLING IS NOT FLIRTING IT'S SEXUAL HARRASMENT AND HERE IS WHY
"I really want to marry the guy who whistled at me from his car" -said no woman ever!
Some say it is flattering to be verbally noticed by a stranger but it doesn't matter what you are wearing or where you are from, catcalling is always offensive. It is still a compliment but it can be degrading. "Commenting on my breats or bottom is not flattery and you know it!"
Catcallers are from different races and ages too,what they all have in common is that they are men who make women feel sexualized and more like a piece of meat than a person. Women feel embarrassed, dehumanized, invaded, disempowered, scared and more. "Don't scream smile more.If I am having a bad day,I think I deserve the freedom to frown.I am not on a poster to look good for you!"
98% of women experience some form of catcalling.We are told to wear more conservative and modest clothing if we don’t want to be called out for our bodies. Women are even starting to post pictures on Instagram of what they were wearing when they were catcalled. Their outfits range from oversized sweaters to hijabis to long dresses. It still didn't stop it!
Flirting is about playfulness, catcalling is intended to demean; flirting assumes equality between the parties, catcalling is about dominance and manipulating the power dynamics; flirting is humanising, catcalling is objectifying; flirting is fun, catcalling is scary; flirting is consensual, catcalling is about power and control; flirting is one-on-one, catcalling is about group dynamics; flirting is respectful and catcalling is just plain fucking rude.
A catcall, an unsolicited dick pic, unwanted attention in a bar or touching me in any way that I have not endorsed is a form of violence. It's clearly abusive.
When we address catcalling, It's not only women's job to stop it. And if you still don't know the difference between flattery and abuse, put yourself through the asshole test. Ask yourself the simple question or make your friend ask himself the next time you try to hit on a lady on the street : "Am I being an asshole?" The answer should be clear. And if it's not, you are.
Please help raise awareness and spread the word.Women are getting raped and beaten with catcalling being the start. Say no more!
