In this video one can view a woman walking through New York City while she it "cat called" by numerous men. Our hot topic focused on how her body language and impression management exuded her desire to be left alone. Looking at her body throughout the video we can see that she is angled forward, hands clasped at her sides, and her facial expression neutral. From this one can see that she has no interest in stopping, or talking to anyone. Her artifacts further show her lack of wanting attention by covering almost her entire body.
In the discussion after the video was played we brought up the point that a man would never receive the same reaction from others as this woman did. As we picked apart this statement we decided that the main reason for this is because there aren't really women sitting on the streets. So even if a man were put in the same situation it is likely that he would never be called at.
