I was coming home from my martial arts class, walking home from the train station, when that group of men (plus a few more) who like to loiter around a bus stop (they are not waiting for the bus...I've seen a bus pass them once, and that's the only bus that services that stop) were trying to catcall me.
I heard "hey, baby!" too many times for my taste. Instead of responding to these idiots, I took another tact---I ignored them.
"Hey, baby!" turned into "psst-psst," kissing noises, and other sorts of noise. And the further I walked past these clowns, the louder they got.
"Miss...MISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!"
Clowns, please note. Making noise and calling a woman "baby" and "sexy" is not going to get her attention...it's going to make her less interested.
I hummed to myself to tune them out...and the pleasant surprise of a truck blasting Anita Baker's
Those men hang out there too frequently, and I want to put up signs or something to attract attention to that. A woman should be able to walk home without dealing with losers. This neighborhood is too nice for buffoons like them to ruin it.
