    “What are you talking about…”

    you are not talking about getting catcalled, you are saying that if you got complimented, you would like it.

    that is not what is happening to womenn getting catcalled; they are not receiving compliments, they are being harassed.

    If you were catcalled multiple times a day every day you wouldn’t find it as fun, since these are not components so much as an attempt to engage with you personally, which is time-consuming and doesn’t benefit you, it only benefits the harasser, especially with the accompanying implication of rape or violence with each incident of harassment throughout the day.

        …then you insisted that you would enjoy being catcalled, so I wanted to clarify that you wouldn’t enjoy being catcalled; you would enjoy a different situation in which you are occasionally complimented in good faith without the threat of violence, which is a completely different situation than what women go through everyday being catcalled.

        you wouldn’t enjoy being catcalled.

        you would enjoy receiving occasional good-faith compliments without the lurking threat of violence.
