“...I found that men would whistle at me as I walked down the street, as if my body were their property, as if I were an object to be commented on instead of a full human being with thoughts and feelings of my own,”

I’m sure all those Argentinian men will instantly alter their world-famous behavior.

I have never taken being whistled at as an insult.


Wow. Women I didn’t know got offended at “hello.”
Whistling was down right off the table.

If she was so concerned about sexism, she would be loudly criticizing Muslim men instead of something so mundane as to who got called on in grammar school.

You’re demeaning dogs now. Stop it! Dogs are far superior to moochie.

I don’t think they were whistling at her as such, but warning people in her path that there was hostile incoming.

Still making crap up to try and deflect the damage Joan Rivers' revelations caused.

Too late, all but the brain dead leftists know what you are.

I'm not so sure there? The American pig farmer owes her a great debt of gratitude for providing those uneaten school lunches she mandated on our chil'run.

The Mooch also served on many boards of directors in and around Chicago while her husband twisted arms. Two board members I personally know claim she was a real idiot who knew it and said very little while rarely being present at meetings.It was clear she was just there to get paid and it was merely a cost of doing business in Chicago.

"....“As I got older, I found that men would whistle at me as I walked down the street”..."

I laughed at this, I really did. Maybe it was in the Castro district of San Francisco, where "chicks with d\cks" are common.

Let's be perfectly frank: it was born a man.
