I am 73 years old and live in Auckland, New Zealand. I recently downsized from a house in suburbs when I mostly drove to places I needed to get to, to an apartment close to the city where I now mostly walk. I have noticed that when some elderly men pass me in the street they seem to make a strange kissing noise which I find offensive. I have only just realised since finding this website that it is intentional ….. and I am now ANGRY.
Do you have any suggestions for dealing with harassers and/or ending street harassment in general?
I rather feel like pursuing the next passer by who does this and asking him, in a loud, clear voice why he does not treat me with more respect.
