Does it have to be a “street”? Inside my high school I had to walk past several leering male students, often up to three years younger, to get to my locker, who would taunt me with catcalls. I talked to the guidance counselor, but we agreed there was nothing that could effectively be done to stop it without provoking the boys to make things worse for me. I learned to just put up with it. This was 40 years ago.
