I wish they’d just added in a new one. The old /whistle had it’s uses and it was fun. a /whistle2 or /whistle3 would have solved it. One for appreciating a good 'mog, one for getting someone’s attention, and one to whistle a little tune when you’re bored and waiting for the tank to pull.

The whistle might not be offensive but your statement certainly is!

You were doing great until this.
I grew up in a place where getting cat called and commented on and whistled at happened all the time. And I can tell you after leaving that place it was like a breath of fresh air. I haven’t missed it for an instant. The men here wouldn’t lower themselves to that kind of low behavior, they treat women as a gentleman would, not a filthy dog.
As a female being called at is not a compliment it’s an insult and it comes from men with no self respect or respect for females.

hateful catcall? lol
so if a woman approaches a man and says / yells something like “hey hot stuff” is that wrong?

Some people don’t enjoy it,
but some people enjoy random sexual encounters.
that doesn’t make asking or offering up a dirty conservation is wrong. just say no thanks.

Anything anyone does can be taken the wrong way. You see it as a negative, I see that it still has merit. Sure some men are crass, and do it in a non-respectful way, but my point was that catcalling is just one way to signal a persons attractiveness. I did not receive too many of those growing up, the disrespectful kind, there were a few, but I turned heads, and that is fine. I suppose if you lived in an environment or neighborhood that had more of that low kind of behavior, I can see how you would grow to hate it. I lived in a better area I guess. I didn’t see it. I’m glad you got out of that situation, but my basic point is that signalling attractiveness is not inherently bad, or how else will anyone know somone finds you interesting?

Catcalling in real life can be disgusting when put in a context a woman may fear for her safety, but we are talking about a computer game here where a type of whistle was taken out due to it being offensive? It is just a whistle, how you interpret it is up to you. I agree with you that in real life catcalling can create a nuisance, but we aren’t talking about respect and low behavior here. At least I wasn’t. To each his own. I’m sorry you chose to point out one comment I made in a post where I was trying to show positive feminism in a good light. Women can choose to see the attention they receive as bad or good, up to you.

Cowslip, I did comment on the rest of your post before quoting the part I wanted to cover in my post. Didn’t mean you to think I was dismissing it.
I only made the real life experience comments because you did
I was responding to you. I personally don’t find the way the whistle was in game offensive because it’s not real life.
As far as real life
how shallow/insecure does a person have to be to consider a cat-call from a person on the street a compliment? How else will anyone know someone finds you interesting?? Certainly many other ways than yelling at people in the street.

I see you posting about things you find offensive all the time in this game.

Why do you play it if everything is so offensive?

:thinking: or maybe
 it really isn’t.
