Meh, not all of that was egregious behavior or harassment.  Some of those guys were thirsty pigs, but some were just giving compliments.  If she didn't get any, she would be complaining also.

Meh. All part of the modern mating dance. How were them dudes to know that was a nice Jewish girl and not some ratchet who was DTF unless they made a move to find out? Inner city boys raised in a (liberal created) Matriarch ghetto without a father around have to use exaggerated machismo amongst their peers to prove they aren't a momma's boy and they also quickly learn that the bad boys who do things like street catcalling get laid a lot more frequently than the passive choir boys who don't.

Women, being the gatekeepers of sex, can and will (since LBJ's 1964 Great Society) choose exciting dirtballs instead of stable family oriented men to procreate with when Uncle Sam is footing the bill.

Ok, I've walked across Manhattan lots of times over 30 years, and I've never seen anything like that. And what the hell is with the god bless you and have a nice day crap? Are those code phrases?

People now talk to each other in NY? When did that start?!?

I went to Montana in 1989, and when I got back, everyone was amazed when I told them that I walked down a street in Billings one morning and three people talked to me. And not one of them asked for money!

NY city has really gone downhill.

  Is it racist to point out that some sub cultures in America are more rude than others and that some parts of the country are just more hostile to everyone than others?

   Also just throwing this out there, statistics indicate that most if not all of the men asking like assholes were raised by women in single parent house holds, and that this kind of behavior is sometime rewarded.

  No reason to blame the heterocage, blame shitty parenting.

That's not useful election fodder.  Convince a bunch of women that the root of this problem lies with subsidizing social failure and not simply with those bearing penises and the whole thing blows right back in the faces of those promoting it.

I live in the ghetto. It's my home. It's in my goddamn country. No part of my country is off limits to me because I'm white or female. They need to knock their bullshit off, and if it gets physical they need to be dealt with in a legal manner.

It sounds like some posters want to give scum a pass because they're poor and black and put the blame on the white woman. Fuck that.




I think it's more a recognition that there's nothing that can be done to change it (that can be discussed here, at least), so it's best to anticipate and avoid it.

That's my take, anyway.

My first reaction when seeing this video was that a lot of the "How are you?"and other greetings didn't belong in there. The guys moved on and didn't make a pest of themselves, and the greetings themselves were polite.

SOME of the more obvious come-on comments weren't too bad, but that kind of thing does get old after a while. And the more sexual ones (and the following) were troubling.

The problem I have with these kinds of guys is that you never really know where it's going to go, so you have to put on your stony face and pretend not to hear them. Even the smallest acknowledgement can be seen as encouragement.

I did a poll (see here) asking our esteemed ARF men if they catcalled. Last I checked, 76% said they didn't. I was expecting a number like that. I don't believe most regular (whatever that means!) guys do it. By "regular" I guess I mean, had a decent education, raised in a more stable environment, hasn't had a lot of trouble with the law, that kind of thing.

A couple of things that surprise me about the reactions to this video. It seems like some people are furious that the video was even made, and think it must be fake. But I have no doubt that it's accurate and she did get the comments that were recorded. I don't think her clothing was that alluring and I don't think she was dressing in a way that was so seductive that no normal red-blooded male could resist. She was attractive but not a bombshell.

I think most women out there have had some variation of this happen to them and it's very unpleasant and not in the least flattering.

Come on, when 76% or so of ARF doesn't do it, it doesn't need to be done in order to impress the ladies. It's tacky, rude, and at times downright scary.

Well, somebody went a little far down the red pill rabbit hole.

Sorry, but pointing out shitty male behavior is not exactly #waronmen.

While you and the other women here may find it tacky or rude (and it is), not all women do. The ONLY time I recall cat calling a woman (I was 19 and drinking at a college party) I said "God bless your daddy". The response was "thank you".

FWIW, the video shows inexperienced boys trying to get a pretty girl to notice them. Nothing more, nothing less---except for the guys who tried walking beside her to get noticed.




Picture that being your wife or sister or mother...because they've all walked in her shoes...you want some guys thinking the females in your life should be GRATEFUL to be noticed by them?

Not likely to work in the suburb where fathers still at least try to protect their daughters' honor, husbands their wives, brothers their sisters etc. Such behavior is still looked at as crass and low brow. At least for now. In another decade or two of broken families,political social engineering and Hollywood smut worship the suburb girls are going to be ripe for catcalling and sport sex (White girls are still a generation behind their black and brown sisters in promiscuity, out of wedlock births etc. but they'll catch up eventually with little effort) Until then they will have to continue to hookup via text behind closed dorm doors or during that semester overseas while the Patriarch is busting ass to pay for his princess's college.

Catcalling may get you laid in the ghetto or at a drunken venue especially if you look panty soakin' hawt like Brad Pit. However, if you're white I wouldn't try it in the ghetto unless you favor an ass beating from the local thugs who protect their turf from competing horn dogs and drug dealers... However they will rent you a girl.

Ace over at Ace of Spades had an epic post on it:

Allah's "Quotes of the Day" on this video were pretty good, this one especially.

My own take on this was "This has nothing to do with me." This is a fight between two factions of the leftist coalition -- white feminist women and black and hispanic males.

I think the woman was indeed harassed at several points in the video, but then, I have been repeatedly instructed that I am to never criticize any historically-oppressed minority's culture, and I'm also not permitted to have an opinion on anything that vaguely Affects Women's Health, Well-Being, or Dreams, so I am left without any voice here.

(I suppose that the video should be taken as an indictment of the Designated Villain in all social dysfunctions, that is to say, White Males. But as almost no White Males appear in the video, I decline to accept that indictment.)

The left will just have to resolve this feud among its constituent members itself.

And they are indeed in a bit of a feud, Charles C.W. Cooke report.

   
As it has grown in popularity, the video has been transformed into a blank canvas, onto which America’s brave advocates of hyphenated-justice have sought to project their favored social theories. Evidently unwilling to let the spot stand on its own, Purdue’s Roxanne Gay wrote sadly that "it's difficult and uncomfortable to admit that we have to talk about race/class/gender/sexuality/ability/etc, all at once." Alas, she was not alone. Soon, the claims of "sexism" had been joined by accusations of "racism" and of "classism"” Hollaback had been forced to acknowledge that it had upset the more delicate among us, and those who had celebrated the video had been denounced as unreconstructed bigots. By this process was its message diluted and appropriated, the country's most prominent peddlers of grievance and discord electing to squabble and bicker over its meaning, and to strip it of its value in favor of their own, fringe fixations.

   "The fact that the video chooses to showcase the experience of a white woman experiencing harassment almost exclusively at the hands of black and Latino men," Brooklyn Magazine’s Kristin Iverson proposed earlier this week, "is a pretty clear indication of who the audience for this video is supposed to be, namely, those who seek to protect and defend innocent white women, aka the already existing societal power structure." This theme was picked up in more explicit terms elsewhere, the less direct references to the "power structure" quickly giving way to overt accusations of white supremacy. "Thousands of satisfied racists are sharing that viral catcalling video," griped Lindy West at the Daily Dot, lamenting that its creators had imposed "manipulative, specific, politicized constraints on the issue of street harassment" and thereby permitted "the bulk of the audience to divorce themselves from the problem."
View Quote

To be honest, I have "divorced myself from the problem," as neither I nor anyone in my cohort (that is, anyone I could be reasonably expected to socially chide into behaving better) does this.

Ever.

I've actually never seen it.

   
Yesterday, the Root's Dion Rabouin dispensed with euphemism entirely, confirming that "some of the video’s intentional choices seem to play on the Birth of a Nation trope that white women simply aren't safe from sex-crazed black and brown men." How that’s for a thumb in the eye for the millions who shared the spot on their Facebook pages?

I think there are actually some issues here worth discussing, such as different cultures' differing opinions on how forward men can/should be with strange women. We all have heard, of course, that some men in foreign countries are quite forward, for example. Mediterranean countries, largely, though not exclusively.

We could talk about whether or not it's fair or right for the dominant culture -- which is a liberal, college-educated urban-oriented Northern-European White culture -- to impose its own mores on less-powerful undercultures.

We could discuss whether it's entirely fair of women to expect that only attractive men will express interest in them.

We could talk about these things, but we can't talk about these things, because we live in a world of Puritan Repressiveness and Offense-Taking.

We cannot have any intelligent conversations whatsoever. We do not have discussions; we have Coordinated Group Accusations. We also have a lot of Coordinated Hysteria and Scalp-Hunting.

So we can't talk about any of these things. The penalty for venturing an opinion that someone else disagrees with is potentially career-ending.

So I really have nothing at all to say.

These people made this world, in which there is no discussion, only accusation; in which there is no search for truth, only imposition of consequences; in which there is no thought, only political campaigning and recruitment of persons for purposes of ritualized hazing.

I read a good piece by David French on Obama's insult of Netanyahu. I think it states things well.

French states that the viciously trivial mode of college campus invective has infected foreign policy discussions; I would expand that and say it's infected every mode of discourse.

   
For those who've lived under a rock for the past four-plus decades, the American academy has been characterized by two prime impulses: one substantive, the other stylistic. First, there's the substantive claim that the problems of the world can largely -- if not entirely -- be traced back to America's sins and the sins of our Western allies, most notably Israel. These sins have caused the peoples of the world to accumulate a long list of 'legitimate grievances,' and the problem of anti-American or anti-Israeli violence is therefore best dealt with by dealing with the underlying grievance...

   Next, there's the sophomoric, malicious style of campus rhetoric, where stigma is the preferred method of argument. It's hard to overstate the propensity towards name-calling even of "elite" academics, and the culture of the academy is one where groupthink is enforced and reinforced through vicious rhetoric. Their opponents can't be merely wrong. Instead they are racist, bigoted, homophobic, or -- despite professed love of the disabled -- "Aspergery." The arrogance is overwhelming, and the fake tough-guy posture of name-calling elitists is laughable to everyone but themselves.

So this is a particularly nasty dispute between the stigma-flinging, groupthink-enforcement goonsquads of leftist identity politics; I say fuck 'em all, and let them destroy each other with their grotesque tactics.

I'll let the people who live for Identity Politics Attacks & Recriminations do what they do best.

I'll be over here, completely ignoring it all, waiting for the survivors to announce themselves.

Ace over at Ace of Spades had an epic post on it:

Allah's "Quotes of the Day" on this video were pretty good, this one especially.

My own take on this was "This has nothing to do with me." This is a fight between two factions of the leftist coalition -- white feminist women and black and hispanic males.

I think the woman was indeed harassed at several points in the video, but then, I have been repeatedly instructed that I am to never criticize any historically-oppressed minority's culture, and I'm also not permitted to have an opinion on anything that vaguely Affects Women's Health, Well-Being, or Dreams, so I am left without any voice here.

(I suppose that the video should be taken as an indictment of the Designated Villain in all social dysfunctions, that is to say, White Males. But as almost no White Males appear in the video, I decline to accept that indictment.)

The left will just have to resolve this feud among its constituent members itself.

And they are indeed in a bit of a feud, Charles C.W. Cooke report.

   
As it has grown in popularity, the video has been transformed into a blank canvas, onto which America’s brave advocates of hyphenated-justice have sought to project their favored social theories. Evidently unwilling to let the spot stand on its own, Purdue’s Roxanne Gay wrote sadly that "it's difficult and uncomfortable to admit that we have to talk about race/class/gender/sexuality/ability/etc, all at once." Alas, she was not alone. Soon, the claims of "sexism" had been joined by accusations of "racism" and of "classism"” Hollaback had been forced to acknowledge that it had upset the more delicate among us, and those who had celebrated the video had been denounced as unreconstructed bigots. By this process was its message diluted and appropriated, the country's most prominent peddlers of grievance and discord electing to squabble and bicker over its meaning, and to strip it of its value in favor of their own, fringe fixations.

   "The fact that the video chooses to showcase the experience of a white woman experiencing harassment almost exclusively at the hands of black and Latino men," Brooklyn Magazine’s Kristin Iverson proposed earlier this week, "is a pretty clear indication of who the audience for this video is supposed to be, namely, those who seek to protect and defend innocent white women, aka the already existing societal power structure." This theme was picked up in more explicit terms elsewhere, the less direct references to the "power structure" quickly giving way to overt accusations of white supremacy. "Thousands of satisfied racists are sharing that viral catcalling video," griped Lindy West at the Daily Dot, lamenting that its creators had imposed "manipulative, specific, politicized constraints on the issue of street harassment" and thereby permitted "the bulk of the audience to divorce themselves from the problem."

To be honest, I have "divorced myself from the problem," as neither I nor anyone in my cohort (that is, anyone I could be reasonably expected to socially chide into behaving better) does this.

Ever.

I've actually never seen it.

   
Yesterday, the Root's Dion Rabouin dispensed with euphemism entirely, confirming that "some of the video’s intentional choices seem to play on the Birth of a Nation trope that white women simply aren't safe from sex-crazed black and brown men." How that’s for a thumb in the eye for the millions who shared the spot on their Facebook pages?


I think there are actually some issues here worth discussing, such as different cultures' differing opinions on how forward men can/should be with strange women. We all have heard, of course, that some men in foreign countries are quite forward, for example. Mediterranean countries, largely, though not exclusively.

We could talk about whether or not it's fair or right for the dominant culture -- which is a liberal, college-educated urban-oriented Northern-European White culture -- to impose its own mores on less-powerful undercultures.

We could discuss whether it's entirely fair of women to expect that only attractive men will express interest in them.

We could talk about these things, but we can't talk about these things, because we live in a world of Puritan Repressiveness and Offense-Taking.

We cannot have any intelligent conversations whatsoever. We do not have discussions; we have Coordinated Group Accusations. We also have a lot of Coordinated Hysteria and Scalp-Hunting.

So we can't talk about any of these things. The penalty for venturing an opinion that someone else disagrees with is potentially career-ending.

So I really have nothing at all to say.

These people made this world, in which there is no discussion, only accusation; in which there is no search for truth, only imposition of consequences; in which there is no thought, only political campaigning and recruitment of persons for purposes of ritualized hazing.

I read a good piece by David French on Obama's insult of Netanyahu. I think it states things well.

French states that the viciously trivial mode of college campus invective has infected foreign policy discussions; I would expand that and say it's infected every mode of discourse.

Filthy fucking street walking whore bag should have had 10 hours of being bukkake'd instead of just walking the streets.


see, it's people like you this whole thing is about.




Yes, because I'd say to or about some random woman walking on the street. This militant feminist bitch has an agenda. Fuck her, and fuck her agenda.


you don't know her, but you venomously called her a whore and said she should be having ten men cumming on her face.


Pretty fuckin' weird, man.

Amongst other things the women in question claims to be a black belt and a sex assault victim. Might be legit, might be bullshit, but wishing 50 guys would ejaculate on her is just mentally weak.

Would it be okay if 50 gays guys spugged on you because of your anti homo bias (if any?)

Don't let stupidity beget stupidity. She is an idiot for not seeing the real problem

Besides if you really wanted to be hurtful you would point out that she is obviously privileged and racist.

For some reason, I don't buy her claims. I stand by my comment(s). Fuck her, fuck her agenda.

All this shit about being "the bigger person" or "the better person" or being "morally superior" is akin to the RINOs sucking democrat cock and "reaching across the isle". The left, including this cunt, see this as total war, and they play dirty. I will stoop to their level and below, because I've seen how "being a bigger/better person who is morally superior" has gotten us SHIT. Every day I see posts here about how the ROP can't be reasoned with, they only understand violence, they are scum, etc. The left is really no different. They can't be reasoned with, the only understand playing dirty, and they are scum who seek to destroy my way of life and rape me of my freedom(s).

So fuck this cunt, fuck her little agenda of getting cat calling banned, and fuck the leftists.
