    One time in high school a senior was almost expelled for throwing a burrito from his car at a freshman. It hit her in the face.

    That's just disgraceful throwing a burrito at a girl, what a waste, we all know she will never be able to finish it...

    Two ladies drove by me in a car one day and asked me if I wanted a job while I was taking a walk on my lunch break. They were giggling. I was flattered but told them I'm already taken. They drove off. I feel bad because I know whoever they hired just wasn't as good as I would have been.

    It's worse when they stop the car and try to get me to get in and keep following me trying to get me to get in. I keep saying no. They only drive away when I shout that I'm married. That's very creepy. Why would I get into a car with a persistent strange man?

    Does the car look like this...because that's a whole other thing altogether.

    And if you ignore them (walking by them at the train station) they switch to insults.

    But, if something bad happens, it's our fault for walking places at night without a man.

    @littlemissbgiff It was a joke. I was imaging a group of ladies, one of them looking homely and mannish, and a group of teens about to cat call them until they see Medusa and seize up.

    Just want to add that of course not all guys do this stuff, in these ways. There are just a bunch that do. And we know from our life experiences how bad things can go sometimes. But, a lot of the time it's just shouting and nothing more. My husband would never do these things. And I know lots of guys that wouldn't. And there are different circumstances. Some that are just compliments in a non-threatening or jarring way. And others that are scary. And when one guy is grabbing at us, there will sometimes be another guy that helps intervene.

    @GnothiSeauton23 maybe once or twice but I won't take it seriously until you're screaming it out of a car window

    What kind of car...? :wink:

    Oh my god, PLEASE say Subaru! You don't even have to tell me, I know nothing gets women hot and bothered like a station wagon.

    I know that this kind of behavior can intimidate women so don't get me wrong when I say..

    When I was young my friends and I enjoyed being yelled at it caused a lot giggling and we also met a lot of nice guys believe it or not. In fact I met my first serious boyfriend this way. He was riding a motorbike and yelled "Hey gorgeous" I smiled and waved and he drove out of sight around the corner. When I got around the corner he and the bike were on the floor. I rushed to see if he was okay (he was) and he asked me out. We dated for a couple of years.

    But please bear in mind that I lived in the UK and in the countryside and it was a different era than today. It was one way of meeting men in fact. Men may have yelled but they never yelled nasty stuff just compliments.

    Please don't think that I am defending this behavior now, I am not as it obviously is very upsetting to a lot of women and things have changed a lot in the last 40 years since I was a youngster and I am sure that some of these guys shout very offensive stuff and can be very intimidating.

    I haven't noticed it here in the UK these days but then I am past my sell by date now but maybe it still happens to younger women.

    I am sorry that some of you have gone through some bad experiences with this, I was lucky I guess that my experiences were more positive and fun.

    Absolutely and I in no way meant to lump all men into one category. I wasn't trying to bash.

    I know you weren't. :heart:

    Well, there you go, @littlemissbgiff. I can stop lying now. Except about the Subaru.
