So out doing the dog walk this morning. On a major busy road during what would be rush hour morning traffic.
I get honked at. I don?t get it.
First, I look like a bag of shit. I?m wearing tights with basically a nightgown style shirt, hair in a bun covered by a hat because I haven?t showered yet. I pee then they pee, that is the first thing we do in the morning. So I?m not looking pretty.
Second, it is not like he would turn around if I waved him down. He was clearly headed to work in a work truck.
So I don?t get it. Why? What is the purpose? What are you guys expecting? I?m going to wave you down and blow you in the street while holding a dog on a leash??? LMAO
It is the same with cat-calling. I don?t get the purpose. It is not for us women. We don?t like it for the most part. I would guess that 90%+ of women hate being honked at or catcalled. Personally I think it is for guys more then us.
So what do guys get out of it? Why can?t guys just look and appreciate in silence.
Now to be clear, I?m not trying to start a bashing thread against men. I am truly trying to understand the reasons why and what the expectation is. Also, if guys know that most women don?t like, why purposely subject them to it? Or is it a absent-minded thing where they just don?t think of the women they are bothering?
Opinions, please.....
