Most of them have heads full of cement, unfortunately.
Playboy's next effort might relate catcalling to the number of "headaches" one's intimate partner gets after a whole day of putting up with it. I know I used to feel that way a lot when I lived in Boston and walked everywhere. It's draining, guys.

That's it.
Oh, yeah: I do the same for men I encounter who I don't know.
