Catcalling, Compliment or sexual harassment?

I would be offended. i don't even want to be stared at. Just my personality.

I don't like it. In Denmark it is not very common, and I have only experienced it a few times. When I was living in Italy it happened a lot, and it made me uncomfortable.

I hated when unknown men whistled when I was walking in the streets, it is offensive.

It depends on who catcalled me.

If my friends and relatives do it to me I am fine because I know they just enjoy teasing me (they must not do it in public or else) but I hate it when other people do it to me.

This is one reason why women are nasty to men. Women feel objectified by men when they receive any kind of attention. Not all guys treat women this way. But, when some do, they feel turned off by any compliment they receive. I don't mind if someone says I'm pretty, gorgeous, cute, or beautiful. But, if you 'compliment' me in an objectifying manner, I will feel pissed off and very uncomfortable. I know that some men grow up learning that. It's very common for Hispanic men to whistle at women they find attractive. That doesn't mean that it's okay for some women. It's either a cultural thing or a form of harassment. I will say this: For that President to treat that woman that way was very unacceptable. It was also very unprofessional. If I was that woman, I would've flipped out, too.

I am not comfortable when a man whistled at me. I know only ill-mannered canto boys do that and so sorry that a President would misbehave that way.

That is conduct unbecoming of a President. I think the reporter will not mind so much if she is in a beach wearing bikini, but not when she is in her professional role. I think this kind of President spells trouble for your country. If he does that to a first lady in other country, that will cause a lot of problem.

Well, in the case of an incoming President whistling during a press conference, that's just inappropriate period. As far as that happening to me personally, I guess I feel flattered more than offended. I don't mind a whistle, but I do hate googly eye comments from men who literally drool and have their tongues hanging out - that disgusts me.

It has been a notion in the old days and i think until today , that to whistle to a girl passing by is offensive and only done by those who are always in the streets doing nothing but watch people go by . I would feel offended too because you can just very well tell me "You are a sexy woman " . It would be flattering if they do that instead .

This is a president with no decency. Wolf whistle is not good for a man to do it. This is really a bad behavior.

it used to be compliment in the past now harassment. people these days are extreme from either end.

some people are just blind to their leader, and that's not right. some one'e out of line, and they should be punished.

Usually it's very annoying to get catcalled. It makes me feel uncomfortable.
