Just another average looking young woman who aspires to acting and is looking for publicity.

Also, as I suspected...some of these men have seen her before:

"I was walking around Midtown and Harlem and South Ferry and Washington Square Park. ... And these are places I walk typically."

According to https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080318234311AAT0qVm, Google pays about $1 per 1,000 views.

24,000,000 views might pay that woman $24,000(or much much more) for a day spent walking around looking sexy.
Enough to pay for a good psychiatrist.

Every view helps, by providing her with free advertising.

First, I find it interesting that people keep pointing out the neighborhood and that this wouldn't happen in a nicer place. I would beg to differ. Men just do it differently. I have had men in nice restaurants/bar come up to me and say some really ballsy things. It's just done differently.

Second, I think it's interesting when men say don't dress provocatively. I get it. But at the same time, when a woman has a nice figure, something very demure and conservative can become "sexy". Some women have very curvy bodies. Put the same outfit on an older woman or less curvy woman and it is less assuming. Or honestly, I have worn the same outfit (yoga pants and a t-shirt with my hair in a bun, glasses, no make-up) and I can go about my business without being bothered once. All of a sudden, same outfit, I put a little blush on and lip gloss, have my hair curled and all of sudden you are getting the looks. So what is a woman supposed to do? Walk around like a bag lady? Then get attacked because she doesn't take pride in her appearance? It isn't as easy as some make it out to be.

Granted, most men are respectful. But when they aren't, I think most women aren't inclined to stand their own. I have and all of a sudden I am a b$&@! because I didn't welcome someone's advances.

i am all about a woman dressing as sexy as they want. hell, i like to look. i am just saying that one cannot have it both ways.

the best i ever saw in public, was a gal playing pool at a pub (nice place, too). she was an african american gal, early twenties, pretty good looking. she was wearing skin-tight pants, a bowler, and a completely see through black blouse. no bra. and she was playing pool right in front of the giant windows out to the street, ground level. i pulled up in my car to a literal mob of men on the sidewalk, cat-calling and carrying on. WTH is going on, was my first thought. then i walked in and i was given the full pleasure of the spectacle.

I have a gal pal that is retired PD. She of course used to troll for johns as a newbie patrol officer......she dressed in sweat pants, tee shirt and running shoes. She set the Orange County record back in the 80s for 90 collars in a 12 hour period.

She still looks hot for 59.....but a low blood supplied brain with a stiff winky will hit on an uglee goat.

Thanks, good thoughts. It is arguably a complex dilema for both genders. The deep primitive side of the brain biology fighting with the parts of the cortex that is trying to hold back the monkey-part of the brain. Kind of a Power struggle between genetics and cultural rules. War and sex will bring out the ape-part, sooner with some individuals than others and in less culturally accepted settings.
Both men and women have tools and strategies that can come into play in order to reach an effect. The more sex appeal I deside to display, the more I will "risk" the less culturally hampered individuals of the opposite sex to unleash their biologically driven behavior patterns. I can choose to get upset and lose my good temper raving about it as unacceptable, but thats beyond the Point and fruitless. In a sense its a game between the sexes and has Always been. Both parties knows the "rules" as far as action and plausible reaction. Everyone need to find their own strategy and finding a balance.

Personally, on a scale from 1 to 10, she's about a 7.

But I digress....we as men are the SAME monsters we claim don't exist when we tuck our daughters in at night.

Yet, collectively, while we protect our own(and some are not even capable of that) we also beat, kill, abuse, threaten, rape, & murder with the conscious of sociopaths.

Maybe that's why we have Easter, DisneyLand, etc...to isolate children as long as we can as they awaken later to this steaming pile of shyte we claim as "Humanity":rolleyes:.

What do you mean WE? I'll take responsibility for myself and the son I raised, but the rest of you are on your own.

fintstone 11-02-2014 04:57 PM

Great! A feminine viewpoint.


Tweeze

I have three questions that all men would like to have honest answers from a woman.

1) If you put on clothes that were 2 sizes too small and walked through the downtown of a large city past hundreds, if not thousands of men...would you not be a litttle disappointed if no one noticed?

2) If you were not in a relationship and walked past Adam Levine or Ryan Gosling in that 2-size too small outfit and they said, "Wow, you are sooo hot! Could I get your number?"...would you be upset and tell them "Hell no, you are a pig?"

3) If Adam Levine or Ryan Gosling walked by in jeans and a muscle shirt...or no shirt; would you stare? If they wore tight pants, would you admire their rear after they passed? If you were with rowdy girlfriend...might you catcall...or at least say hello?

Strange interpretation. We must have watched two different videos, the one that is being discussed for the most part here is of a woman who is definitely not wearing clothes that are "two sizes too small"...:confused:

She is fairly average looking, certainly not smoking hot or unusual in any way. Just an "everywoman" the likes of which there are millions in NYC and everywhere else for that matter. The fact that she may be a little overweight might make her appealing to certain, umm...demographics.

Once again, Ryan Gosling or someone like him is not walking around in a Village People costume. That is some weird fantasy for the sake of a strawman argument. Has any woman ever cat-called a dude in the world? Surely it's happened but the differential in strength between men and women completely negates the comparison in terms of possible fear and intimidation for the receiver of said cat-call.

Or do you think that women should really feel flattered and appreciated when some creep yells schit at them on the street?? Some really brave and/or fed-up women tell the guy to fk-off but that carries a great risk. They could be opening themselves up to being assaulted, at least verbally if not physically. Just for walking down the GD street.

But of course it would be no different for your hypothetical dude in no shirt. :rolleyes:

Male pigs have existed since the beginning of time. In certain circumstance.
Female pigs exist as well...

The youtube video was about money.

Thanks Tweeze. I always value a feminine opinion.

But...those clothes are pretty darned tight for women walking the street where I live...especially for 10 hours in the middle of the day.

Tweeze...wouldn't most women check these guys out...or maybe even say hello if they walked by?

Of course it is. The strawman is Fint's stock in trade.

fintstone 11-03-2014 02:58 AM

Only because my post was totally rewritten in his....tsk tsk

My position must be pretty unassailable if it has to be rewritten to fit his argument...and to result in a personal attack from you.

Work on your argument and you will not have to post like a petulant child.

kach22i 11-03-2014 03:34 AM

From the pictures it looks more like a thing for pretty boys than strawmen, not that there is anything wrong with that.

Baz 11-03-2014 04:09 AM

I don't think she was wearing clothes 2 sizes too small.

Everyone has different agendas when it comes to attracting the opposite sex. Some like attention, some don't. Some will admit they like it, some won't.

Variety is the spice of life. I always go back to embracing our primitive instincts, as Markus has pointed out. We all have ape genes that ultimately drive us to do what we do - survival being goal #1. To do that we must breed.

Third feminine opinion in a row. Thanks Tweeze.

So you think those boys are pretty, huh? Not that there is anything wrong with that.

Funny how the guys who cannot handle themself in PARF are so quick to come here to toss around the insults...where everyone plays nice...sheesh, can't you guy hold a reasonably intelligent conversation about anything?

I meant it to be funny, not mean.

My applogies.

However, to be on the safe side, no more beefcake pictures please.

Speeder, I'll say hey to anyone, male, female, old, young, heavy, thin, don't matter.

I'm not trying to get anything out of it. I don't do it with an agenda, other than being polite and cheerful.
I like to think sometimes that it is perhaps the only pleasant interaction with a human they have had all day.
Guess I'm just naïve. Certainly not the boor you think I am...

I don't think you're a boor at all and apologize if that impression was inferred. I know that you're a nice person with manners, my favorite type of person.

We just have a different interpretation of the video. I believe you that you'd greet the hot chick because you greet most everyone but I don't think that applies to the guys in this video. There is another type of guy out there, first he pours on the phony saccharin, then when the woman does not play along, he gets nasty in the flip of a switch. I could tell endless stories from a life of having attractive sisters and mother plus a hot GF or two. These guys are nothing like you. :cool:
