I've heard on the radio that you could soon get fined for wolf whistling...Classed as harassment...

I actually find it very flattering.

I just feel its harmless fun and gives us ladies a confidence boost..

Ladies what do you think??

Gents, do you wolf whistle at the ladies and if so why? Is it to grab there attention or let them know you like them?

Nonsense

There and to the left a bit

Never done it to a complete stranger and never will - whilst it may seem, and can be, a bit of harmless fun to some (both men and women) to others it can be quite intimidating - especially in certain circumstances and coupled with other leery remarks etc

About the only time I might do it would be as a joke with someone I know well enough to know they'd appreciate it

Depends on the situation I suppose. I have felt a bit intimidated in the past when walking by myself with a group of men wolf whistling when I was younger. But at other times as part of a larger group of friends it hasn't bothered me.

Last year , I saw on news article. A female was on about this.

Saying which group she was representing. They wanted wolf whistles etc being classed as harassment. On top of this, any person approaching which included winking , smiling , sitting next to a female in public areas . This to be put in same context. The female reporter . Then asked how this would work. How would any male etc be able to make contact with a female without the thought he could be reported for harassment. There must be some females on here who have at first thought when male approached her. That what a bore etc. Yet ended up having a relationship with him. Not including fab type meets?

She basically said that police etc would have to sort out if made law. So they would have to take statements , decide etc. The reporter did reply saying

that be very hard to police etc. Also saying very difficult to decide if an actual offence was committed , based on what the interviewee wanted.

It would be better to just not do it, without the threat of imprisonment. Im long past being whistled at, but it was a not very pleasant jolt to the system when younger.

The world is going bonkers.

How in a city is a woman going to know 1) the whistle was aimed at her; 2) who did it and 3) prove it. I now have visions of certain women walking around with various go pros on their heads / bodies to catch out some fella who might be whistling but not at them…. Bloody daft and a waste of police time.

Are you genuinely saying that feeling vulnerable is something a person allows to happen to them rather than a feeling brought about by the situation they're in? As an example a colleague of mine was at her desk, two male colleagues approached her very aggressively with a complaint and stood one either side. She told them they were making her feel vulnerable and to back off...was she wrong and should have asked them for time out to adjust her perspective?

I have had this escalate within seconds from a whistle that I ignored, to insults, to being virtually surrounded by a group of ten or so young men (age group maybe early twenties) that were shouting extremely unpleasant things at me. I've also had a car slow down as it passed me and a passenger shout rather crude sexual comments, and then a couple of minutes later the same car come around the block again to repeat the experience.

I can see how it's impossible to police, but I know firsthand that the whistle can just the opener to pretty vile harassment. I'm a reasonably thick skinned old bird and can cope with this type of thing fairly well. Less world weary (trans or cis) women can and do find it extremely frightening.

I've been assaulted a few times for having the audacity to ignore being whistled and cat-called. Followed home, approached in shops being told that they've changed cars so I won't know it's them when they come for me.

So, no. I don't appreciate the attention, the safety in numbers misogyny mentality or the sentiment that I should be flattered. Each to their own.

Should it be illegal? Hard to police. Should there be more education about respect and boundaries? Absolutely.

I don't like it personally. It's bothered me in the past, especially when I was younger and the comments start. I can't remember the last time I was actually whistled at but I probably wouldn't even acknowledge that it was aimed at me nowadays, I tend to walk around in my own bubble. At the same time, I'm very aware that my daughter will probably have to deal with this behaviour in the not so distance future and that frightens me.

I get it's not possible to police it though.

Others cannot make you feel vulnerable, only you can, usually from past experience.

If this wasn’t true, everyone on this thread would agree with you.

Hey, lot of people have this, could be weight, self conscious and different size ball sacks.

Challenge your world, it tends to change perspective.

I don't agree. Other people can make you feel vulnerable.

How? Only you can let them.

It sounds stupid when you first hear it but no one can make you feel anything try a Google of "can others make you feel a certain way"

However this isn't the same as saying it is stupid or wrong to feel a certain way in a certain situation. In your colleagues example it is likely that many others would have felt intimidated - that would seem to be a reasonable and expected response. There would be others though who would report their feeling in such a situation as angry, irritated perhaps even amused (as in "did they really think they would scare me? "). The fact there are a range of possible feelings to any given situation says that it is you that controls how you feel, not the situation.

This thread is a perfect example, leaving aside threatening comments/behavoir, a wood whistle on its own makes some women feel intimidated, others angry and yet others sexy, clearly the whistle itself cannot be said to be the cause of such a range of feelings. We are responsible for how we feel even if we haven't the first clue how to control those feelings.

None of this makes wolf whistling an OK thing to do, it perhaps does mean though that just because we feel a certain way we should understand that others don't.

My take with wolf whistling is I have no idea how someone else will feel when hearing it so I wouldn't dream of doing it to a random stranger, I know that a well timed one will make my girlfriend smile so will do it to her sometimes.

For the record I got wolf whistled the other day as I was running sprint intervals. My main feelings at the time were trying not to either throw up or shit myself with the effort/heat so the whistle mostly left me feeling surprised.

Mr"

So if I'm approached threateningly by a six footer with a knife whatever I feel is my responsibility not theirs? Even though their intention is almost certainly to frighten me and make me vulnerable. How can I adjust my perspective to make myself feel neutral and control how I feel in this situation?

Responsibility is a different question, it is understandable that you would feel intimidated in that situation- this is why intent is so important in law.

You ask how you could change your feelings. If you were an expert in self defense and unarmed combat you would almost certainly feel differentialy in that situation - your life experiences, beliefs, personality are what determine your feelings.

There is a big difference between saying that your reaction to a given situation is understandable to saying that situation 'caused' a certain feeling.

Again, as humans we have the ability to predict how our behavoir is likely to make another person feel, we do it all the time whether that is by making sure our partner gets the cutlery they prefer at lunch or threatening someone with a knife. A court looks at actions *and* intent to determine if someone is guilty, not feelings of the victim. Personally, I believe that anyone who doesn't consider or ignores how their behavoir may make others feel is an arsehole but it doesn't make them guilty.

I've taken my answser from the thread that was started yesterday about this and died at 4.

It's uninvited.

It's harrassment.

It's male entitlement.

So yes, as some won't pay heed to the rights and wrongs of seeing women as prey and then insulting them if they reject you then women should be afforded the protection of law.

It may seem extreme but how can people ( men or women ) feel as if their lives are taken seriously and respected if they have to 'accept' unwanted sexual attention.

For those that think it overkill...... consider that when I was a girl there was no such thing as marital ra*e. A woman was simply chattel.

We have come some distance thank statute.

I don’t think it’s a confidence boost. It’s embarrassing and makes me feel awkward (well back I. The day it did

My daughter walks down the street and constantly gets whistles, shouts, staring, you name it, it happens. Some of these blokes whistling are doing it at kids in school uniform, they are doing it to young women walking alone making them feel uncomfortable, they are old men ogling and whistling at young women. It’s awful.

It needs to stop. Childish, egotistical behaviour that had its day and it is time to be more considerate and respectful in my opinion.

It does appear to divide the age groups i.e., many women often take it as a compliment. The snag is that this issue doesn't end with an innocent whistle.

We appear to have a worrying change in behaviour since I was at school or in my 20s. Young women appear to be getting quite a lot of unwanted attention ranging from sexism at work, unwanted gropes in the street?

There appears to be a whole generation of men that really do have a problem.

I have two daughters and some of their stories are horrific. Harassment appears to be a weekly issue for them (before covid of course).

"I've been assaulted a few times for having the audacity to ignore being whistled and cat-called. Followed home, approached in shops being told that they've changed cars so I won't know it's them when they come for me.

So, no. I don't appreciate the attention, the safety in numbers misogyny mentality or the sentiment that I should be flattered. Each to their own.

Should it be illegal? Hard to police. Should there be more education about respect and boundaries? Absolutely."

I think this is exactly where I stand. I feel like it’s almost like an ‘entry’ level, or gateway, to more aggressive sexual assaults.

When I think of it I have a vision of either a) a group of lads doing it to a solo female or b) a man doing it to a school girl in uniform and I think that’s why it doesn’t sit well with me

It’s the sort of thing we shouldn’t think is acceptable, and should hold those around us to account for if we see it.

How is this policed?

If I wolf whistle a woman and she likes it, do I still get in trouble?

What if I wolf whistle a woman and she likes it but a nearby woman thinks it’s aimed at her? Do I still get in trouble?

It seems a little insulting to bring this stuff in when it’s clearly going to do nothing.

But it’s also an odd law to try pass, because the legality of it depends on a persons opinion.

So for example, if I punch someone and break their nose, even if that person is ok with it, the police can still file charges against me if there’s enough proof. Because to some degree, it’s illegal anyways.

But here, it’s entirely up to the woman to decide if she’s offended or not, and only them it’s a crime.

So it’s sort of criminalising the ugly/unattractive.

Because let’s face it, if a really attractive guy wolf whistles 100 women, may more are gonna be ok with it than if a really unattractive guy did it.

So we have this odd situation where your actions are more likely to make you a criminal if you’re ugly.

But once more, it seems useless because you’ll never get this to court. It’s just not enforceable.

I think they’d be better off spending time in schools educating kids about this stuff. Changing attitudes and mindsets.

Isn't this just a case of...

I run a lot and sometimes I wear shorts and a small top, especially in weather like this. I get smiles and encouragement which is ace. But wolf whistle are not appropriate or cool. I want to feel strong, not like a sex object. I've also been chased for 'a laugh' and I don't get it. It's not funny.

I feel vulnerable because men are usually faster and stronger than me and when they're seeing me as something sexual rather than an athlete, that bothers me.

Its super difficult to police thats for sure, but then again it’s a bit like someone offending another person for racial or sexuality/gender

Like you can report it but probably not much is gonna happen if it was just words (maybe I’m wrong?)

Having said that, it seems like people think twice before saying “you fucking so and so”

I’m not sure, But you are right, I think education is key, like everything. And it should be instilled early on.

"all this will do is make men fear getting into any relationship with a women.

because once shes not getting her own way she can make shit up and have you carted off to the cells.

and dont think for a second women do not make up false accusations.

That can happen now. This is about reducing public harassment and increasing safety, as much as can be done. It’s a start, not the end goal

Someone will whistles me in a club where I've got my bits on show and I couldn't give a flying fuck in all honesty.

Out on the street when I'm not in a sexual setting.... coming from someone who'd fight a bloke if it came to it (and has done in the past) ... it's intimidating.

You said it yourself, the behaviour following the whistle is where most harassment kicks in, so the whistle is pretty much the starting gun in your opinion. Why fire the fucking gun in the first place then?

People up and down the country are saying they find it uncomfortable or intimidating so why fucking do it?

Would you're fight or flight kick in if a bloke bigger than you squared up to you in the street when you're minding your own business? I'm pretty sure it would. Well, mine kicks in when I get unwanted, uninvited and inappropriate sexual attention.

These dudes may as well just shout "I FIND YOU SEXUALLY ATTRACTIVE" coz that's what the whistle means, yet if he did shout those words I reckon you might change you're tune

Question, has anybody ever pulled as a result of whistling? ? ?

I can honestly say that I have never whistled at a woman in my life. If a passing woman glances my way, and makes eye contact, that's the door halfway opened to make a quick move, without even touching my lips and tongue.

I find it strange that people are arguing with the fact that wolf whistling does make many if not a very large majority of people uncomfortable.

It’s all about sexualising someone when they don’t want nor ask for it. It’s just another example of misogynistic ‘I don’t care what you think, you’re a sexual object for me to ogle’ thinking.

I’m sure that some people do like it but how does anyone know who they are?

Taking a straw poll on a swingers site full of sex positive people, many of whom directly want and enjoy being looked at, is a bit redundant and probably not going to draw an accurately representative result.

Although it has seemed to draw out the closet misogynists, so that’s a plus point for anyone’s ban list

Others cannot make you feel vulnerable, only you can, usually from past experience.

If this wasn’t true, everyone on this thread would agree with you.

Hey, lot of people have this, could be weight, self conscious and different size ball sacks.

Challenge your world, it tends to change perspective.

How? Only you can let them.

It sounds stupid when you first hear it but no one can make you feel anything try a Google of "can others make you feel a certain way"

None of this makes wolf whistling an OK thing to do, it perhaps does mean though that just because we feel a certain way we should understand that others don't.

That’s what I don’t get about this stuff. If a guy is the type to actually assault you because you ignored his wolf whistle, will laws like this protect you?

Even between women you cant agree if it’s ok or not !

Women in that moment hot options

- go talk to him and teach him a lesson

- stick up two fingers at him

- walk on and ignore him

Funny old world, it generally happens when there's more than one male, and he doesn't like a bruised ego. Yaaaay, now I'm outnumbered too! What luck

You are 100% right
