The Rich Old Bastard

Catcalls May Be Even Worse Than The Ebola Virus

Angry Female; Men are such PIGS!

Rich Old Bastard; Is that so?

A.F.; Do you know what just happened to me?

R.O.B.; No.

A.F.; I was walking down the street, minding my own business, and some man yelled out to me “HEY HONEY, NICE ASS!”

R.O.B.; And you disagree with his assessment?

A.F.; Hey dude, I work out an hour and a half every day. I have an amazing ass! You could bounce a quarter off my ass. That is how I am able to wear these micro shorts and 6 inch heels when most other bitches can’t.

R.O.B.; I don’t see your problem.

A.F.; The problem is men shouldn’t say those things, it’s degrading!

R.O.B.; It sounds to me like he was paying you a compliment.

A.F.; You would say that, you’re a man.

R.O.B.; Indeed I am, but here is an article from the New York Post written by a female reporter that agrees with me.

A.F.; I don’t care, I shouldn’t have to listen to things like that.

R.O.B.; Well, it seems to me you have two choices; you can either stop working out, let your ass get all lumpy and saggy, stop wearing micro shorts with six-inch heels, and stop walking past construction sites or you can try to understand that men are different than women. Nature caused men to be visually stimulated by the female shape. When a straight man looks upon a nicely-shaped female body, certain thoughts spontaneously appear in his mind. Sometimes one of these thoughts breaks loose and escapes from his mouth into the atmosphere. The result is the dreaded “catcall.”

A.F.; Hmmf, that’s no excuse for degrading women.

R.O.B.; Believe me, men don’t sit around and say “hey, here comes a hot looking girl, let’s degrade her!” If they were trying to degrade you they would be hollering insults. Stop misinterpreting and labeling everything someone says as “degrading” and instead of being bothered by it, choose to feel good about yourself instead.

A.F.; Well, I still wish it would stop.

R.O.B.; The odds are against that. Do you expect EVERY man on Earth to just stop doing something that they have been doing for millions of years because you want them to? Your grandmother managed to survive it, as did her grandmother. What makes you so different?

A.F.; (Smiling) You are such an asshole!

R.O.B.; So I have been told. Now come over here.

A.F.; What for?

R.O.B.; I have this quarter and I want to see how high I can bounce it off your ass.

A.F.; (Smiling bigger) You are SUCH an asshole!
