It's Spring! Who's Ready for Street Harassment?.
@152 Physical contact is off limits, especially the working people. Come on. I believe I've said as much. You should have kneed the asshole in the balls.
Continued verbal hits after clear indication it wasn't welcome. Harassment.
Single muttered comment? That's just, at worst, off the shoulder rudeness.
@149 You know what else is pretty popular? Are you saying I should worship Christian God too? Are you in fucking high school??

@137 Talking about male privilege is such a middle class wankfest. It exists, but your coming down as if its a thing that can't be conquered by both sexes acting together, rather than women telling you how to act and you obeying, is so middle class.
Also, I see that women don't like it. But to not get so bothered that they suffer writers block and their whole day is ruined by something so minor is completely within their grasp, and it has nothing to do with how men act. It may give Cienna a little thrill knowing she's getting page counts trolling about meaningless bullshit and wrapping it in feministic overtones to lather up the crowd here, but really that means she's no better than Bill O'Reilly or Rush Limbaugh if that's what she's doing.
Try reporting on real harassment instead of HIDING THE REAL HARASSNENT BEHIND A FUCKING CUT.

@112 As a gay man, who has been objectified by men I've been attracted to and not attracted to (and by women), I don't consider "nice ass" "nice basket" or "You look amazing" to be assault or the summation of my being. My reaction is more like Keekee's model
I've even had guys who were bigger and more aggro be handsy.
And, you know what? I certainly haven't felt compelled to write about the unfairness of it all. I've never said "You know! I bet these guys hate men." I've assessed every situation and taken it as is.
I'm sure these women have never been derogatorily called a faggot by a door man's straight 6'2 muscle bound friend entering a the only gay once-a-night nightclub in a 20 mile radius? I'm sure they think I've never experienced that. Did I let it get to me? No. You take it as they come. And say "thanks for noticing."
Strength.
@118 It thinks I'm prone to cat calling women. How nice.
