Street Harassment

Hmm I'm kinda done with this thread. Too much is spent on going back and forth. It honestly felt no different than when I naively engaged in talks with religious peeps about religion. Too much mental gymnastics.

thought I would share this

I think he seen through it, just look at his face, XD!

Not sure about the front, but the rear is easily given away by the jiggle.

Nah, i am not going to look for those, because it is pretty much always a waste of time when people ask others to go look for studies that supposedly prove them right, because the studies or research don't exist. Anybody can pull figures out of their pretty little butts at any time, but if you don't have anything to actually show for it, why bother.

but rly few stopped her or cat called her?

The video wasn't focusing about it. It's a group who does different stuff like that with amazing body painting. So even if it happened, they just removed it to focus more on how people doesn't notice she's pantless (even the seller!).

Just like that, the dudes who did the original video doesn't focus on feminism, neither, they are a group who makes original videos that they know will be massively popular, in pretty creative ways. It looks like they were employed by an anti-discrimination institution this time (and in their article, they focus more on racism, anyway).

Anyway, they have prove to be pretty trustworthiers before, so it's likely truth that they were 10 hours doing so (with about sightly more than 100 episodes). And, they most likely tried the experiment more than a single time until getting a high number. Anyway, even with 110 random greets/cat calls in 10 hours, you got one by each six minutes (and if you're beautiful, and looking hot, and on the center of the city, and usually getting cat called by mid-low class people).

As for personal experience, I got cat-called/random weird greet about each 40 minutes . Varying from one each 20 minutes to one each two hours, it depends on the hour, what I'm wearing and so. When I exit with a friend (she's really hot), she gets cat-called about each 15-20 minutes. When I exit with a men, group of 3 or more, or my mom, I don't get cat-called. Of course this's just in a dense part of the city, on the outskirts or outside the city (and streets) it almost never happens.

Yes, it makes me feel uncomfortable. My friend is even sightly traumatized because she's constantly feeling like a "sex toy" (though it's for a lot more of things like street groping, some assaults when trying to make friends and so). I don't mind too much the guys on specific, I don't think most of them are evil intentioned, but they must understand that they aren't the unique doing so, and adding, adding and adding is the problem.

Nonetheless, I think it comes more about education rather than sexism. An educated person will not disturb random strangers on the street (aside spam), just as simple as that. Of course the thing that it only happens to girls rather than both genders is sexism, but the solution is quite straightforward to be related to feminism (minimal etiquette).

For example most of the cat-call you seem here comes from people we locally call "flaite", or somewhat translated as "poorly educated, rude and low or mid-low class person" (yeah, it's the nearest thing I can think of). You can easily recognize flaites because they talk in a quite special (and highly rude) way, usually hard to clearly understand, lol.

Note: The thing is, the people who cat-call strangers in the street are rude and with lack of etiquette, thus weirdos. It isn't a sexism issue because: even without sexism, they would continue doing so, with the difference that girls would do so, too. Solution? Improve the society's education and social respect.

And... yeah, that job is pretty much done on developed countries, each one (though I must note with different quality each one). Then, why keeps happening on some parts of some of them? Disparity produced by racism (like on Australia or Japan), corruption (like on Greek or Italy), recent immigration (like on U.S or Germany) and other factors. Some countries just lack relevant disparity (like Canada or Finland), thus not having the issue anywhere. There's some stuff about density that directly comes with frequency, too, but bleh.
