2. Definitely. Men need to read these, and shut up about "lost flirting opportunities"

Of course, I have had a woman poster here on DU tell me that "You are only a sex object when you allow it to happen to you." And "Sure there are the usual jerks who are out of line. Usually, someone brings them into line, quickly. I don't know what awful misogynist world you live in unless it's in some religious compound somewhere." When I told her of some of my experiences of street harassment. So the usual suspects here on DU won't be very supportive, but I think that real feminists are doing a wonderful job with these hashtags, not to mention those of us who bring these feminist perspectives to DU.
