Hey, another one!
Right. Well, I don't want to open a can of worms but:
a.) biologically, men simply are predisposed for greater physical strength than women. So, with that, comes the consequent precautions one would have to take in life, as a less physically powerful being (in short: you can't walk through scary neighborhoods with scary creatures, as easily).
That said, it's NOT banishment to a lifetime of powerlessness. Anyone can get a taser/pepper spray/knife/gun and quickly gain the upper-hand in almost any situation.
So there's that..
b.) I don't doubt they face harassment. Catcalling has been going on forever, seeing as the primal urge to have attention of another whom you desire is fairly deeply rooted. That said if you are psychologically unable to cope with it, my feelings are that you'd benefit from treating your psyche, a bit.
Improve your self-esteem, confidence, see a therapist. The tools exist.
All of this said, I'm not envious of this aspect of the female existence. But I refuse to believe an iPhone app is the solution.
