Aspiring actress, 24, with hidden camera reveals the horrendous catcalling women go through
Daily Mail Online ^ | October 28, 2014 | Sophie Jane Evans

A 24-year-old aspiring actress has been filmed being catcalled 108 times as she strolled around New York City - even though she was wearing a plain T-shirt, jeans and sneakers. Shoshana Roberts, a graduate of Kutztown University in Pennsylvania, was captured on a hidden camera by her friend, Rob Bliss, as she walked through the city's streets. Over a ten-hour period, she was pelted with dozens of unsolicited comments, including: 'What's up beautiful?', 'Hey baby', 'Smile' and 'Have a nice evening darling'. She was even followed by some men for several minutes, with one repeatedly asking her: 'You don't wanna talk? Because I'm ugly?' Others winked at her, whistled and made inappropriate noises.

I don’t know how I made it living two years in Texas. The waitresses called me sugar or honey all the time. Devastating....

I was never one to call out comments to women...but it looks as if the camera has actually caught men acting like....well....men. The horror.

All I can figure is she must’ve had a steak dinner strapped to her back.

” Once in a while my son and I make a point to engage every person we pass in the grocery store with a ‘hello, how are you today’.”

That is wonderful. I know the ones who replied, and even some who didn’t, appreciated that.

All that this shows me is that New York City is desperate.

She's not even attractive, much less 'beautiful'.

She's pre-fat.

Oh dear.

She thinks that being talked to is "horrendous"?

She’s a disgusting cow, a hideous malformed udder-jumper, a disgusting slime-ridden feces, a ratlike pestilence on America. I will rejoice when I hear she dies of Ebola.

Soshana Roberts is a vile, malformed, birth-defect factory. She’s so ugly, her birth certificate is an apology from the condom company. If I had only one dying wish, it would be that her mother had her aborted.

When she was born, the national Disgusting Factor jumped sharply. Not enough bad stuff can happen to that errant squealing piglet. I have caught better looking fish in a net. She is the worst thing to ever happen to this universe.

Wolves constantly stalk her, since they have not eaten enough ugly today. She is the reason most men join the Taliban, hoping they can finally cover her with a Burkha. Russia collapsed the day she was born. She is vile.

Laz you simply must stop trying to repress your feelings. You will end up with an ulcer!

Hell, I’m from the south. Calling someone “darling” is nearly as common as saying Yes, ma’am - No, ma’am!!

It is very common here.

there is a thin veneer of decency on our civilization, as some situations reveal
Sure, the sharp political thorn which the Democrats and Liberals have been shoving into our sides the last few years is starting to wear down the natural resistance to be a vocal A-hole in Conservatives. At this point, my veneer is pretty damn thin!

I hate her with every ounce of strength in my body. She is revolting, and I despise her with a pure, crystalline hate. My hatred for her burns like the core of a fusion reactor. I fume and fulminate when the topic of Shoshana Roberts comes up. I wish I had spit in her food.

Wow! That is surly you! Good to hear from you!

Are you still in the Atlanta area? We're due a range trip ... it has been so long.

We are due a range trip. And every time we fire, we can imagine Shoshana Roberts.

God I hate that woman.
