I personally hate it.

Exactly. I go out and run/walk daily and I dread when I have to walk past a bunch of construction workers. I will try to avoid walking past if I can.

You should be thankful. I bet all of those construction workers would love to take you out to Taco Bell and then cumbia dancing.

You bring up a good point. If I knew the person and it was someone who valued me as a person it would definitely feel different.

If it were legal , I'd suggest arming yourself. Situations such as that can turn acidic rather quickly. Or , get one of those ultra loud whistles. Fight fire with nuclear fusion!!

It’s when they’re in a group and they start calling out things like “hey baby”, “hey s3xy”, “hey come here I just wanna talk”. Harassing, pigheaded stuff.

Did you read the title of the thread its about men whistling not calling you names, making lewd comments.

Exactly. Any woman who says she isn't a tiny bit flattered by a whistle is lying. Would the women against the whistling prefer it if the man yelled out EWWWWW instead of whistling?

There was nothing in the thread that said anything about the man following you.

Whistling is fine I guess, but anymore than that, I hate.
I'm guessing that few men who whistle could put it into words. Or maybe those guys are verbally challenged.
