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.
