Whistling at Girls....Why??

[bluesummer]

A friend of mine and i were just discussing this today....why on earth do guys do this??

Last week, I was waiting to cross the street and this truck with three guys in it pulls up next to me, and one of them screams out: "You have a seriously ****in sweet ass baby!!" Yesterday, another two whistled when I went by. All the ladies here, I'm sure, have experienced this many times over.

I just don't get the logic. What purpose does this serve? Do you guys honestly think we're going to stop and be like "Hey, thanks! Would you like my phone number?" Really, if you haven't figured it out yet, it makes us think you're assholes. Gr!

Well, don't you think that most of the truck drivers are kinda retarded?
They probably think it's a macho thing, to whistle on girls. One thing I noticed, they always do that while they're in groups, very rarely when they're alone. Psychologically, they demonstrate "courage and virility" to their friends so they get better status in the group. But, unfortunatelly for them, that's the only thing they get

[boobaa]

I can't whistle, don't know how, it just doesn't come out.

[missguided.rose]

Yup, only happens when they're in groups.. guys like to show off, its all that testosterone, that's my only explanation cause I sure don't know anyone who's whistled at someone and then gone out with her.

I never understood that either and I'm a guy. And I've seen guys my age honk at girls while being by themselves in the car... though most the time it's when they are in groups.

Do you guys honestly think we're going to stop and be like "Hey, thanks! Would you like my phone number?"

LOL blue you made me laugh with this :D

Oh I was just thinking. We should get married.

[Fawn]

I've had that happen to me a few times. I don't mind it if its a cute guy though. lol! Its kinda flattering anyways.

[Junket]

It's all for fun really.

Girls do the same thing, maybe not as often, but they're not exempt.

It wouldn't be the first time girls shouted "hey sexy" or the like to me while I was walkin' along.

Don't let it get to ya.

Guys who whistle at girls don't give a damn what girls think. We do it for the hell of it. If a girl says no, big deal. We live another day. If a girl says yes, <<cash register sound>> You get the idea. Sometimes, we do it for fun. I've yelled "nice ass" out of a car before in front of my friends. We had a laugh. I had no intentions of getting her number. I hope my response sheds some light into the male mind.

[marcus23]

yeah, but it's really primitive way and very rarely effective. it's a cave men burden.

she has a pic up there people. go look in the gallery...

and i think men do this because they like it to be done to them. treating us the way they want to be treated. ???

[nebulachich]

I hate it and have always thought it was pretty cowardly. They would never yell that if they weren't in their big manly truck.

[Tone]

We should get married.
