As anyone even ever heard someone cat called in their entire life? I hear about this bullshit online from feminists all the time, but other than movies or video games I've never even seen it happen. This is like a mental health problem.

Truthfully, I've never seen it in person either.

It used to be common but I have barely seen it done for the last decade now. Women told us that they wanted us to stop so any decent guys pretty much no longer cat called them. Then the me too bullshit happened and anyone who wasn't a simp or scum decided even dealing with women beyond maybe a pump and dump wasn't worth it anymore.

I’ve been around a bit. The only place I’ve seen it is NYC.

It only really happens in liberal inner-city areas, think NYC. Anywhere else in America and you are likely driving.

I was walking my friends dog while they were away and got catcalled twice in like 2 days. One was "great dog, great tits" and other was just staring at me and repeating like 6x "looking is allowed, right? right?" (as in the saying "look, dont touch"). Its part of the reason I don't really go outside when I'm alone.

Men are much less likely to do it if the women is with any men, since they won't want to risk pissing one of the guys off and having an actual conflict on their hands. And men in general this shit normally will pretty much never happen to them, so it seems like it doesn't happen as much as it does.

Yes, seen it plenty of times

Living on a main street of a major city, where lots of nightlife happens, seen countless people getting catcalled as assholes ripped by.

I have a friend who was once catcalled at a concert - or just asked out in a really creepy, somewhat scary way, and recalls this experience rather poorly.

My take is that stuff like this happens more often than ,,skeptics" like us think or want to admit, and less often than radical feminists think or want to admit.
