Feminism is no more about women's rights than Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and the NAACP is about tolerance.In each case we see an Alinskyite division and a repression of individual freedom.
Thank you for a fun win for freedom.
I love this. It actually gives me hope that there are some sane females out there who haven’t bought into feminist lunacy.
I say with all humility that, at 50, I still get these compliments from men, and I take them in the positive spirit in which they’re given. (Hey, it can’t last forever, but as a female, I’ll happily take it while it does)!
But I DID start hitting on the dude at the store. ;)
Actually this video will easily be getting hundreds of thousands of plays. A far cry from the 35MIllion but I’m doing my best. Which is why I need YOUR help and support to influence culture.
Of course, that’s a normal looking, non-threatening looking guy, and he complimented the ladies in a very polite, non-creepy way. It was also a well-lit mall. Something about being catcalled on the street just feels creepier. I wouldn’t even call what this guy did “catcalling.” It was rather nice.
My take on the catcalling in NYC wasn’t creepy, just that maybe she had a bad experience once, so wasn’t interested in repeating it.
The video in the Mall was harmless, and the women were mostly attractive, so the compliments were harmless.
Otoh, Leftist women over react to everything, and that is why we have the issues with men that aren’t normal anymore, because it’s hard for them to be themselves. Feminism has contributed to the perversion in this country. Most of the time ‘thank you’ is the right answer with a smile, and keep moving...which makes a woman even more attractive.
Catcalls are not sexist unless they are immoral or sexual, and I have never been offended. After years as a Reservist, when I was younger, I do not remember any inappropriate advances, some laughter and all in good fun exchanges. I had more than my share of compliments back then. Perception=Reality I guess, in some female minds.
I received a nice compliment last week from the guy behind the counter when I paid a bill...he was young so the comment was genuine...no other reason to have given it, I wasn’t buying anything. And he was certainly too young to be interested in me. Take all compliments with a grain of salt....some things are just icebreakers in the conversation.
I did have a bad experience a few weeks ago, when meeting one teenage grandson, to hand over a lunch I made for him & friends (his request) at the intersection, where we could each go our own way. Broad Daylight and lots of cars, with great pull over area...seemed harmless.
Before the guys got there, some man crossed the median in his truck ‘illegally’ to get to me, thinking my car was broken down, and I tried to wave him away...it was almost a confrontation, and I surmised he wasn’t right mentally imho. I was shocked and mortified...and decided never to do that type of exchange again. Driving a few extra miles is worth being safer. A need to ‘practice what I preach’.
The shocking part was I have a new car and was holding a cell phone, lots of other cars knew what I was doing, so definitely inappropriate on the guys part. Taught me a lesson about safety in the age of anything goes.
After that confrontation and the trouble I had getting that man to move along, and leave me alone, I see her point.... That could have been on the mind of the girl in NYC catcall video. People do react relative to past experiences we aren’t privy too.
And I see your point as well...considering the ‘well lit’ atmosphere vs a darker street....very different view.

You must be a very good-looking gal! I agree, saying “thank you” is the thing to do when it’s a nice compliment. (Trouble is, sometimes it starts out that way, but when you say “thank you,” the guy takes it as encouragement and it then becomes creepy!)
Guess we have to take it on a case-by-case basis.
To be clear, ‘not’ critiquing you.
Just pointing out that simpletons respond to lies rooted in their simple emotional lives more than facts cause ‘other than simpletons’ to respond.
Next time insert some staged T&A theater, qualify that at the end and you’ll hit 3 million in a day. /s
No no I didn’t take it that way at all. I agree with you. But we need to battle leftists on a cultural battlefield, not a political one.
You said “when you say “thank you,” the guy takes it as encouragement and it then becomes creepy”
Sure, anything can go awry....and it’s just best to keep walking, and ignore anything that sounds sexual or off center.
“As for good looking”..I don’t think that was the reason that guy stopped...I could have been ‘Nancy Pelosi’, and he would of jumped the median, as he was not even on my side of the road....something weird about him.
I’m older now, and maybe from afar I have a stronger appeal to men than I deserve..lol I don’t know...”beauty is in the eyes of the beholder”. Some men need glasses.
I wasn’t there 2 minutes before he wheeled across the median that was 6”- 8” inches high... from the other side of the road going a different way than I was headed, scary... but ‘mercury was in retrograde’.
He seemed angry when I waved him to go away.....some people just want to connect with anyone who will allow them to stop.
His looks had nothing to do with why I got upset
...it was the craziness of the situation....and he wouldn’t keep going when I waved him on.... he insisted on trying to talk to me...that was the upsetting part. I thanked him for stopping but I told him I would call the police, if he got out of that truck. I started dialing, and he left.
I wasn’t in the mood to deal with a possible alcoholic or mental case. I had to make a split second decision....I may have seemed mean to him...however, he was the only one that over reacted. I was parked off the road. Within a few more minutes we made the exchange and I was headed home....my lesson learned.
That was good :)
Nice. I always enjoy your videos and I really liked this one. Especially since, speaking as a Southern woman who would rather be know as a lady than a slut looking woman walking down the street of a major city who’s soul purpose is to illicit cat calls and then act offended, I despise feminist. I call them femi-nazis. They are the stupidest beings on the planet. They haven’t yet figured out that they will spend the first part of their life plucking their eyebrows and the second part drawing them back on. Well, except for someone like Gloria Steinem who has the money for implants.
