"All good fun but I didn't think builders were allowed to do that nowadays.
The PC brigade has stopped all that.
Killjoys.

Yes not allowed to do it on site! I’ve seen guys taken off site because they did a wolf whistle.
I do shopfitting so work at night sometimes
When some women have had a few they like to bang on the windows and maybe show their tits and or bum. A crazy world we live in now |

Transported back to the 1950's here |

"And this is why school children do not feel safe. Me too ring any bells? This is nothing to do with the PC brigade, it is about females, of any age, being able to walk the street without fear. "
Absolutely. I find it staggering that threads like this are allowed to exist on this site, yet you can be banned for using certain words that are deemed widely acceptable in recreational sex circles.
Creating safe environments for women is something we should all be taking responsibility for. A young woman was dragged off the street and murdered not so long ago, yet here we are thinking it's the 1970's. |

"Bloody hell, it’s a wolf whistle for goodness sake. I take it as a compliment. "
Whereas a lot of women find it to be an invasive, misogynist form of harassment. It's illegal in some countries already, and in my view, should be here as well.
Nobody should be made to feel self conscious or unsafe walking the streets, and no man has the right to impose his ridiculous sexual advances onto a stranger minding their own business. |

There is no harm in those who like attention wearing outfits that show off their assets that is their choice.
However, the days of uninvited calling out to women are gone and we have to accept that.
May I suggest wearing a t-shirt saying wolf whistles welcome as that would cover any consent issues. |

If you want to interpret the law in a specific way then it already is illegal in this country because it can be classed as harassment.
Can we just slow down a little bit and realise that OPs partner likes the attention and has consented to dressing in a manner that will draw her more attention as a result.

Sure, I see where you're coming from regarding the OP. The thread was always likely to invoke a wider discussion is all. Adult debate on here often seems to be discouraged, rather than opening a discourse on whether certain issues are deemed acceptable. |

The problem with that this is that the whistlers don’t know that she likes the attention and consents to it. They might do the same to another lady who is firmly against it it for many reasons. |
