1. Wow. This stuff is really constructive.
It might actually get through to a few of the catcalling idiots.
Most of them have heads full of cement, unfortunately. Playboy's next effort might relate catcalling to the number of "headaches" one's intimate partner gets after a whole day of putting up with it. I know I used to feel that way a lot when I lived in Boston and walked everywhere. It's draining, guys. |

2. It would be nice if men's and women's magazines
taught people how to have really great sex and how to turn on their partner. As it stands, it's fucking up people's heads so much they don't ever get enjoy the best of sex. It's all an illusion to sell you something.

3. Yeah, it turns out the prohibition against depicting the human form and face
in those desert religions was a good thing. Just think how different advertising would be if they had to sell the product instead of a collection of body parts next to it.

5. But how will she know what a manly manfolk I am?
I suppose I could try talking to her as a person deserving of respect, but that would require social skills and takes so much time.

6. My personal guide to encountering women I don't know on the street.
I look briefly at their faces. If they're looking at me, I smile pleasantly and continue on my way. If they're not, I don't react at all and continue on my way.
That's it. Oh, yeah: I do the same for men I encounter who I don't know. |

7. Yeppers.
"Cat-calling" is a vocal assault. And a sign of poor upbringing.

8. So it has always seemed to me, too.
I wouldn't do it, ever.
