More On Catcalling
I feel like there were enough comments on my previous catcalling post to warrant a follow up post. Bottom line, catcalling depends on the content, delivery, and attractiveness on the guy. If George Clooney shouted, "You're hot" as you walked by (assuming you are a woman...or maybe a man, who knows), you'd probably be okay with it.
No I do not think self worth should be tied to the amount of catcalls one gets or doesn't get. I am simply saying, I'm more okay with attractive guys catcalling (depending on content and delivery) than unattractive guys catcalling. I'm also more okay with attractive guys approaching me, than unattractive guys. You don't want attractive guys versus unattractive guys approaching you? Come on.
For all the ladies who are offended by catcalling, take it easy. Why should you let this negatively impact your day? Brush it off and keep moving. Easier said than done, sure. I used to get really worked up over this and now I just don't care. Why? Because I don't want to give someone else the power to ruin my day. It's like, great, some guy just shouted "You're hot," I know I'm hot, a guy saying this or not saying this is irrelevant. It's also better than some guys saying, "You're fat," though this would also have no impact because I know I'm not. At least the first guy is trying to say something nice!
You don't have to agree with me, but take this to heart; the amount we let someone negatively impact our lives is tied with how we perceive things. Maybe you might be less offended if you think the guy catcalling you has good intentions versus this whole objectification thing.
Think about a random woman saying, "I like your shoes." I'm sure you almost never get angry about this and storm off in a huff because you think she thinks your self worth is tied to her liking or not liking your shoes. To the Anon girl who said, "...why should I be happy some guy found me attractive? I'm not here to be appraised and either accepted or rejected by you. We really shouldn't base our self-worth on what some guy you don't know and don't care about thinks of us..." apply it to the shoe comment and you'll see they really aren't that different.

Screw You
Some guy apparently didn't like my reply to his email. He replied, "!!!????????????????????????????????" Screw you. Would any woman actually reply to that? I immediately blocked him.

He Strikes Again!
Smart Guy strikes again! Think the last time I heard from him was earlier this year, can't remember. I do remember the last time I saw him being sometime late December 2012. I have not responded to any of his attempts to talk to me because he's a douche.
