via Megan McArdle by (author unknown) on May 15, 2008
I recently surprised the hell out of a male friend who considers himself fairly feminist by mentioning that I got catcalled an average of at least once a day. Like Ezra, he'd basically never seen it happen, and had assumed it wasn't really much of a problem.It doesn't bother me as much as it bothers Catherine (and I was recently told by a middle aged woman that it will bother me even...
