re: Woman hands out "harassment cards" to men who cat call her

Can I get a card to give to the person who is in front of me using food stamps, saying all I want is pay for my "own" groceries.

Or would a card that I give to food stamp user say "pay it forward", I helped pay for your groceries maybe you can do something forward for someone.

Which card is better?

I see this every day. I actually feel bad for a lot of the women walkin around minding their own business. It's usually some greaseball guy saying some cheesy line, and then if the girl ignores them, they start in with the name calling.

The handing out cards is a little much, but jesus. Everyone in this thread is acting like she's committed war crimes.

What you are describing is harassment. If a guy says, "Damn, you fine, girl" and the girl ignores him only to have the guy follow her and berate her for being "too good for him" or some similar type shite, like what you are describing, then yes, that's harassment and the dude needs to calm the frick down. In fact, the first comment is probably too much in the instance I described.

But walking up to a guy who says, "Minnesota women are hot," and being indignant to the degree that she is handing out anti-harassment cards is absolutely asinine.

This is particularly true if she is out walking around with the intent of receiving said "catcalls," much like the lunatics who walk around with a god damn pistol in their waistband proclaiming "OPEN CARRY! OPEN CARRY! SECOND AMENDMENT! WHOOOOO!" And given the fact that she's got a goddamn camera rolling on her person with some frequency in an effort to catch her "shaming" these men, it would appear that she is, in fact, baiting these men into the catcall so she can thereafter further her ridiculous agenda.

I'm very much pro-Women's Rights. With my wife, I have to be. But this is crossing a line that makes her appear foolish, not strong.

Reminds me of the fake "tickets" people give to SUV owners. Just as juvenile and ineffectual.
