I'm sure that happens every single day to women, around the world in many countries. So good for her to bring up this issue.
Now, as a guy, I will say that I would be flattered if women cat called me on the street (or even guys for that matter).
However, I do realize that it's different for women being cat called, there's an element of nastiness to it that makes it a uniquely female problem, so no way would I think it ok even if I have no problems with it personally if it happened to me.
People still cat call ? Seems so 1970 ish, or grade school age stuff.
I found as an adult, it is much more fun to just say hi to the person, if one is lucky a conversation might actually start up.
"Young good looking females" is the most lucky and privileged group in the western world. They are getting warnings when for the same violation a regular guy or an ugly woman will get 500$ fine. They are getting lots of other favors from other law enforcement. They are eating for free on dates in expensive restaurants, they are getting other expensive things for free from their admirers. A beautiful million dollar smile of a young hottie is opening doors that never will be open for regular people. For a regular guy to get some good money means that he needs to study hard STEM degree and to work hard 7-10 years. For a good looking young girl, the only thing she needs to do is to say "I do" to one of her "friends".
So you get catcalled. Yes, it's a downside.
But I think that life gave you a hell of a deal.

Clearly you don't get it. It is sad that you don't get it. Too busy playing the victim card. Oh no he whistled at me. Oh the horror.
It doesn't work and the men don't care. Boobus does the same thing over and over again and expects different results. Boobus doesn't get it and never will.
The really true drama queens in this world will never get it and they will never understand.
You say she is playing the victim card, but clearly she is doing the exact opposite. She is showing these men that she will not be a victim. She is turning their stupid little game around on them and showing the world that they are disgusting and have no respect for women. She has the upper hand. She is no vicitm.
So no, you don't get it. I will never expect you to. You are clearly one of those people who will always think this type of behavior is okay.

The guys clearly think it's funny. They are bragging about this to their buddies.
Don't you see their faces? They love this attention.
