How Should You Respond To That Catcaller?

Or a terrifying clown. Or a terrifying woman staring down a fish with a meat cleaver. Pull your lips back, cross your eyes, and drool if you can. Whatever works, as long as he'll never want to see anyone smile ever again.

Smile like a you're a terrifying child in a horror movie

Scream something like, "YOU CAN SEE ME? I'VE BEEN DEAD FOR YEARS AND HAVE BEEN WANDERING THE EARTH AS A GHOST! OH MY GOD!" Seriously, [this shit works](https://www.buzzfeed.com/sahilrizwan/a-17-year-old-delhi-girl-acted-like-a-ghost-to-shake-off-har?utm_term=.ci6mwoxa4#.glNPBrbo3).

Pretend you're a ghost

Should men have to think in the context of people they love to treat women like humans? Of course not. But shit, girl — [it's a place to start](https://www.buzzfeed.com/abagg/dads-react-to-their-daughters-getting-catcalled?utm_term=.icJMZax6R#.ocYYoG5OQ).

Ask how his mother, sister, or daughter would like to hear what he just said.

Oh, he wants to see that pussy? Then show him that pussy. (Pussy_cat_, that is. A really fucking angry one.)

Hiss in his face

You know whatever he just said was stupid as hell, so why not repeat him really fucking loudly in front of passersby? "Oh, I have huge tits?! Wow, sir, I have never actually noticed that before during all the times I struggled to find a bra under $80 or tried not to knock myself out on the elliptical! I guess they are pretty fucking enormous; thanks for letting me know!"

Act as his megaphone

You know us women — we're squawking constantly! Why don't we just keep quiet like the men who can't stop themselves from blurting something out every time we walk by? (Oh, wait.) Live up to your ladylike reputation by following your harasser closely and blathering on about anything, really — do a deep dive into the lyrical prowess of Carly Rae Jepsen, your disappointment over Arya Stark's narrative arc on _Game of Thrones_, or your conflicted feelings about jelly vs jam... you get it.

Follow him around talking inanely
