Fines for catcalling would recognize street harassment as serious problem

[Freighter]

These men need to learn only attractive men are allowed to make advances at women. :3

What kind of a woman would respond positively to catcalling? You'd have to be total trash to find it positive being catcalled.

[gyrados]

wow this is retarded

Its called being hit on when the guy is good looking enough.

I think families have to just raise their kids better. This problem isn't something we can solve overnight.

[melodramocracy]

Good luck enforcing that.

Up next: Offering to buy a drink is preemptive date rape.

Sure it is, the questions is should we, I say yes, you make it painful enough for the people that do this shit, and it will stop.

Now what do we give up, well some people say a tradition where a great many people might not have ever met or fallen in love, so the question becomes where does that fall in the lines of priority, what kind law should be made.

Or do you just say, fuck it deal with it, unless someone literally full on grabs someone and throws them down and penetrates them with a clear signed affidavit saying NO, then we shouldn't do anything?

Way to make men even more unlikely to approach women. Flirt the wrong way because you don't know what's appropriate yet? Goodbye, paycheck.

Education is the only sane way to approach something this petty. Only repeat offenders who have been condemned for their actions before and keep doing it anyway should be a concern. (Barring the groping example brought up, that is still harassment worth immediately punishing.)

[Blamblam41]

I disagree with the premise.

Also, it doesn't matter who gets impacted the most, what matters is that our citizens feel safe when walking on the streets.

Perceived safety is such an interesting thing, especially when applying it to the sexes.

I can only begin to wonder how this will be abused by women.

Hell, it's called romantic when it's a good looking guy (or at least one the woman finds attractive).

The dream future of liberals it seems is a sexless world of dull people too scared to interact unless sanctioned by a state bureaucrat and submitted to a judge for review.

[crewskater]

Does this mean they will fine people for drive by shootings? That is street harassment after all, or does that not count?

Incarceration would be best. Possibly some canning.

[Rennadrel]

I have never seen this happen in my life, why is the OP so hell bent on fabricating outrage over something that isn't really a major problem?

[Doctor Amadeus]

Yeah and centrist Dream where Centrist a day when people conduct their fucking personal sex lives on their own time and not fucking involve everybody else in their dramatic bullshit.

Why incarcerations if they aren't dangerous and why the fuck would you can people, what the hell does that solve?

[Aeula]

It's no big deal and they should toughen up.

[Sharein]

Symbolism, really.

How and who is going to enforce this?

[Doctor Amadeus]

Apparently they needed to put /s. Its a sad world we live in where liberals think jokes mocking their authoritarianism are actual opinions of fellow liberals. How disgusting you all are.

Or perhaps people should error on saying what they mean and meaning what they say. Maybe when a person turns everything into a joke, people don't take you seriously until a person becomes a joke.
