LOL! Of course! Physical attraction is perfectly fine but we are more than our bodies. People looking for legitimate relationships seem to understand that. Only those looking for a quick jump treat women like potential conquests, IMHO.
For most men, physical attraction is #1. For some women, there is no personality that can make up for lack of physical attraction. Not to mention the disconnect between what women say they want and what they want almost always contradict eachother. This has been proven time and time again. When a woman says they want a guy to be nice and open with "so how's the weather", they will kick him to the curb faster than a ny second.

That has not been my personal experience. I abhor aggressive behavior from men. Give me a guy who acts like himself, has some confidence and is a decent human being and I'm good.
Kind of like the way the left is treating the First Lady! Of course they will say we all said the same sh*t about Michelle, which, is a lie. Many of us didn't comment on Michelle's looks it was her polices or lack of knowledge that salt doesn't cause one to gain weight, if used wisely!

Men have known for a long time that "nice guys finish last" when it comes to attractive women. If women want to change men's behavior, then they need to change their own. Neither will happen because it's encoded from thousands of years of social evolution and natural instinct coding for selection of potential mates.
Okay, whatever....Do they have a man calls women forum..... I just don't see politics here.
Umm, I have never had anything lewd said, but the pick up lines are very corny.
I don't see politics either. I think the OP was going for "controversy." But I agree with you that it doesn't fit here.
I don't think corny pick up lines are cat calls. By definition, a cat call is a "whistle, shout, or comment of a sexual nature made to a woman passing by."
I really think women should start catcalling to men so they know how it feels. It feels like you are a piece of meat and it feels like a violation of your personal space and the right to walk down a street without hearing lewd remarks.
It is not minor.
Please do and for heaven's sake....FILM IT!
Don't be surprised if it shows that men and women are really different
It doesn't quite belong in relationships either. Someone yelling something lewd to you isn't a relationship. Maybe great debates? Or psychology?
Since it is sexual harassment, I think it works in this forum, although we could pick apart what is wrong with someone that "catcalls" and that would probably be quite interesting.

A pickup line is just a pickup line and harmless.
I think it fits.
Catcalls are what you described. They are rude and only the lower forms of life do it. It used to be common when I was a child, but disrespect of women was rather common in general - the 1960s.
I used to have to walk by a construction site weekly in the mid-70s. It was a nightmare. What morons!
Also, some commented about how a woman sort of asks for it by where she is and how she is dressed, which is the same argument I have heard about rape and blaming the victim. The victim is not responsible for the brain or the mouth of the catcaller.
Toyman at Jewel Lake;47281796]You know, you don't see that crap in small, western (or southern) towns, and in fact pulling that stuff is a good way to get an azz-kicking..
That's what I'm thinking. That behavior is more of an urban thing.
Never seen it in the 'burbs. Can't even imagine it.
