Is there a reason why guys catcall? (I know its not all guys, just curious as to why since its so creepy). For context I was walking into a restaurant to grab my Togo order and this guy fully stopped his car to roll down the window and whistle at me

Can’t imagine a good faith reason to do that tbh. Piggish behavior

^he was driving towards the exit and I was the only other person in the lot so I know it was meant for me. Mind you, he looked to be in his late 30s and while I am in my 20s, I get mistaken for a middle schooler every day which made it even more gross

Once in a blue moon a woman will claim they actually find it flattering. There’s no way of knowing that about a stranger of course, but I guess whatever they think the likelihood of flattering you is is worth whatever they think is the risk of annoying you. They may even entertain a vague hope you’ll give them enough attention they can start a conversation

Like a way for men to get into womens heads to make them "know their place" or to show their own dominance. Its so fucking gross and indicative of men who have fragile masculinity
