But I suppose we as women could quite easily prevent this from happening by just not leaving our houses, or something along those lines.

Indeed. I mean, I still get catcalled despite being 31 and fairly overweight, I guess its the tits that attract the dickheads. I started getting catcalled at age 12..when I started to develop, in my school uniform...and it was near constant. It was disgusting and actually made me so depressed and quite scared tbh. Infact, I actually..being a child...tried to cut my tits off with a pencil sharpener blade. Obviously I know as an adult that it would never work that way and I would need a proper knife..but yeah..I still have the scars from that.

The creepy thing about cat calling is, in my experience anyway, the vast majority of times it ever happened to me was when I was a teenager on my way to or from school (wearing a school uniform) it's very intimidating when you're that young

Like on the other thread, how it was suggested that it was womens fault that men upskirt and we should all just wear trousers to prevent it? Its always womens fault for mens behaviour...its fairly depressing. Even when a woman gets raped..its always 'oh she had a lot to drink' and such.

Under his eye. Blessed be the fruit. Tbh.
