Probably! I don't usually quote the whole post because it's redundant and it only wastes space. If you don't wanna quote the whole text, copy and paste what you want, then select it and click on the Wrap icon. I don't know which mode you use, though... (I believe that's the default mode) The icon is located on the opposite end of the row that begins with Bold. If you keep your cursor on it, you'll see it says Wrap. |

That's true. They're not exactly the cream of the crop. Ha, now that I remembered Istanbul, there was some guy there following me for about a dozen of blocks. The funny thing is, they have pretty strict laws and have to keep "respectful" distance. It was annoying at the time, of course, but it’s a fun memory now. |

I too used to find it creepy...and it always embarrassed me. I don't know why: I don't think they would do it to ugly people so I guess it should be a compliment...but I always felt stupid and embarrassed, because you know that other people are hearing the guys doing the catcalling to you....

This thread has sparked a vague memory of me and my friends standing on a beach hotel balcony and whistling to the hottie guys down on the sidewalk and we would giggle and hide behind the curtains. Blast from the past!!
DISCLAIMER...we were not being crude or vulgar.

When men whistle or catcall at women, I don't see it as creepy, I just think it's a custom of someone from a lower social class.
