I was walking to the train station after work today and I heard a guy’s voice shouting:

“Hey!  Hey pretty, you’re so pretty, come here!

Come here, aren’t you going to give me a kiss?  Yeah, you, come on and give me a smooch, you pretty thing!”

Disgusted, I turned around, ready to knock some heads together, and saw he was talking to a tiny French bulldog being walked by another man. 

And it hit me, with sharp clarity, just how much a man catcalling a woman sounds like a man talking to a dog.

There’s literally no distinction.
