"Catcalling IS NOT RAPE!"

What??? Nobody ever said catcalling is rape. This video refutes an argument that hasn't been made.

The video basically just said that a girl on tumblr said, like, when she was asked if she'd ever been raped, that, she, uh, was like, telling about all the times she's, like, been catcalled.

No dice. No credible feminist source, beyond perhaps the odd 14 year old blog commenter failing at argument, has ever seriously claimed that catcalling is rape.

I this real life? There are really people that would accuse someone of rape for using a cat call? I am no fan of the practice and I don't cat call myself but this is basically thoughtcrime.

I hear a lot of feminists complaining about "not being able to walk down the street without being catcalled". Is this something that happens a lot in America or are they just wildly exaggerating? In my country I've never heard of anyone being catcalled, it just doesn't happen here.
