Is it harrassment? Maybe, but that's a different debate. It is clear, however, that if it is a problem, its a problem across the board and NOT a "feminist issue". Just another issue that's been hijacked.
I mean... The other day I read through an entire feminist article about unrealistic portrayals of the female body in Disney films and how that makes women and girls feel about their normal bodies. This had all the usual "patriarchy", "making women ideal", boohoo nonsense that all of these articles do. Not a mention of men, at all. Furthermore, it focused HEAVILY on Belle in beauty and the beast in her ball gown and her tiny waist.
Ahem...

 . Yeah... And it's the unrealistic expectations of the female form that are the main problem. |
A godlike post tbh
Have to agree with the hijacking of issues by 'feminists' that aren't much different for men. When you're striving for solidarity and strength in a gender, it isn't the best idea to try and stamp out 'issues' they have that men do to, because it just makes women look weak.
Also, the majority of the stuff in that video is far far far from harassment, with the exception of one or two guys. Most of them were polite and you'd have to have personal issues, male or female, if compliments from strangers in these sort of situations made you feel awkward. I bet the woman in the video was pretty
inside from alot of the comments tbh.
