I was walking downtown on lunch today and a man just stopped and stared at me and waited until I was about 5 feet from him and said, “Damn girl, look how thick you is. I love you, yeah, Damn.”
I said, “That is not appropriate.”
He continued on, “Don’t worry girl I’m not going to mess with you, damn you thick that’s nice.”
All while staring at me like I was a stripper on a pole.

Teach men that women DO NOT LIKE TO BE CATCALLED. It is disrespectful and downright scary sometimes.
