I've only ever had whistling and them saying hello sexy/babe etc if I got told some of the things in that article I wouldn't like it to be fair.

Thing is Amy many do find it harassing. If, for example, and this has happed to me and others I know, you end up walking the long way past a building site every day because taking the normal route exposes you to the remarks and makes you feel uncomfortable whilst on other occasions you have to grin and bear it although you hate it - you know it is unacceptable behaviour.
I think we all note that men usually only do it when they are in groups because that know it’s wrong but don’t care and because they are gutless. Men have no right to make women feel that way. I don’t think we should ever condone it.
