Hard out here being a white woman in America "catcalling"

I like serious men. Serious men with serious intentions act seriously. They can read body language, they have empathy. They look at you and can "see", whether you are willing to talk, how you react. And when they see you are busy or not willing, they leave you in peace. But they don't bother.
The most men acting as in the video are "trespassing". They think when they talk long enough or follow you - maybe with a little bit of force, they can convince the woman. It has to do with mathematics, the more women they talk to the higher is the chance.
They show neither respect to people (especially women) nore to themselves.
Let's play the scenario- I reply to all of them, I talk to all of them, every five meters I stop..I don't think I will catch my train as planned, or will be in the office in time or can reach my appointments. Must I really excuse myself all the time for living my life? Must I really explain everytime to everyone, why I'm not interested in talking to foreign people? Must I really say sorry for being married? What's their intention? What do they want from that woman? Why do they talk to her? Why do they follow her? I assume you and me, we both know the answer, don't we?

I hear you and with the exception of two guys everyone else just said hi or paid a compliment. You can't fault them for trying. Human interaction is getting really weird

Now let's make a video of how black men say hi to women and get ignored.

I hope none of you donated to that dumb ass HOLLA BACK foundation unless you like seeing feminism destroy post modern society.

I'm gonna make a video of how many times you hold the door open for a woman and she doesn't say shit

I don't think so..look at the video . The girl is dressed absolutly normal, not sexy or special at all. She looks straight, not even once she makes eye contact, she doesn't stop- not even looks into the windows, she moves fast. All that signals tell you- I don't want interaction (out of whatever reason). The comment " am I too ugly for you?" is the attempt to involve her into a communication by using a provocation and suggestion, she obviously doesn't want. Why is this person saying this? Because if you charge someone to be better than yourself, most people feel the need to defend themselves..and voilà, you have your interaction and communication
A person, who is just nicely complimenting without expectation, I will absolutly not blame for anything, but I'd honestly advice every woman not to get involved with a person that approaches you in this way.

Nobody says women are perfect, women are better. You can find unpolite, harsh, manipulative,,every kind of women. The topic was just the video and there you see a woman and not a man opening the door for a woman.
But it would be nice, make it!
A foundation I also find weird..
 
Some of the comments in the video were rude and outright disrespectful. Some were harmless interaction. The guy following her around for minutes was just... someone call the cops creepy. I can certainly appreciate women being made to feel uncomfortable or even threatened by the actions of some of the men in this video.

Typically, if I catch eye contact with a woman, I will only smile at her and strike up conversation which rarely amounts to more than 'hello, how are you?' when the smile is returned... sometimes even if it is not. If we're in an elevator, I might whip out my dick.

One thing that I notice is not shown in this video is the thousands of guys in NYC who didn't so much as bat an eye at her. This is not to excuse the 100+ who did... 50% or so of which were disrespectful. Just... you know.,.. we're not all fuckfucks.

Well stated ...for a ten hour vid she posted maybe 5 minutes but im sure you would onky get a sample.

She was on gma saying it was a variety of men cat calling
 
I never understood what men who cat-call or make suggestive comments to complete strangers on the street are hoping to accomplish. What high quality woman is going to respond positively to such behavior? A simple smile and friendly hello/good morning, ect. is all you need to see if a woman is interested, if she does not respond, go about your day. Simple.

That being said, this particular woman from the first video does not seem to mind attention on her terms....

Dear fellow gentlemen,

If you ever see a woman that you're interested in, DO NOTHING. Do not sexualize her by saying she looks nice. Do not patronize her by saying hello. Do not acknowledge her existence. Do not hold the door open for her, that will allow you to fantasize looking at her ass. Do not buy her a drink, you all have no clue what that can lead to.

SHE WILL APPROACH YOU. NO MATTER WHAT, YOU WILL BE APPROACHED!

She will know exactly what she wants, and she will provide her intentions upon meeting you.

Cause she posted a shitty workout video? It's not like a twerking video or anything.

Posting a video while wearing tight as can be workout clothes and posing in suggestive positions, is clearly seeking attention, I don't buy that its only demonstrating the benefits of stretching. She is not even speaking in the video or giving instructions, just posing.

Pretty much. This wannabe actress and her wannabe director boyfriend had an agenda behind the video... it didn't really have to do with the harassment of women. This video was their gateway to viral stardom and also to steal money from naïve folks for their fake cause.

This, I agree with.

I still don't see an issue with her posting a workout video that like... 11 people have seen. This is no different than anything you'll see if you go to a gym or a yoga class.
