The Cat-Call

Saddle up, girl. This one can be really confusing. A cat-call is something nearly every woman experiences at some point in her life. Before we dive in, here’s how the Oxford English dictionary defines cat-call: “A loud whistle or a comment of a sexual nature made by a man to a passing woman.”

I know, that doesn’t seem very confusing, does it? A sexual comment. But let me give you a quick example of the confusing part. When I was a sophomore in college I was on a walk with a friend when a car rolled past and a male voice shouted, “Hey! Nice titties (Another term used almost exclusively by men)!” Now, since my breasts were then DDs and my friend’s barely a B, it was clear to both of us who the intended recipient of this particular cat-call was.
