I agree, making the Burka compulsory would stop all these misogynistic gestures irrelevant so that one wouldn't be able to see or investigate the feminine attractivene

No.
However it has always been time for everyone to have a thought how their throwaway comments and actions may affect others and the older generation should have passed that on to the younger generations.
We all make casual passing remarks sometimes that may be taken wrongly but a little thought could reduce this.
'Upskirting' in particular is a deliberate act out and is shameful.

I think it all comes down to what is now considered appropriate to what used to be considered appropriate.
Go back to the 40/50's it was considered appropriate to treat women like second class citizens, domestic violence was not frowned upon and 'marital rights' could be taken when ever it was fancied. Cat calling etc was also considered OK.
Move forward, women now demand to be treated equally, men can expect to be treated with respect by the police if caught abusing your wife and cat calling is no longer acceptable.

It's all in the detail - broad daylight and a single wolf whistle or 'Hello Darling' from across the street, no bother.
Move that to after dark and make it a group of men close by, it takes on a more worrying aspect and can be unnerving.
As I said we should all think first, I have made errors - we're only human.

Not a hint of irony in your post, is there?
You complain about Muslim women being 'forced' to wear the Burka as a response to the perception that men will behave in an inappropriate manner towards them were they more exposed......and then posit the view that rather than 'western men' take responsibility for their own behaviour and actions towards 'their' women, the solution would be for those women to cover themselves completely to remove temptation.....

What Mamya said, there are shades of everything,men need to understand that in some scenarios they are intimidating perhaps when they don't mean to be, and I'm sure most men don't enjoy frightening women so it is about simple respect in cases of cat calling etc, but things like upskirting, domestic abuse and so on, there is no grey territory at all.

What a load of twaddle, you don't know what you are talking about, back then women were treated with more respect then, because they deserved to be respected, unlike some of the so called 'Liberated' females we see today.
Domestic violence has always been frowned upon in certain circles as it is today, men have always been the victims of domestic violence but it is not given the same publicity.
And there have always been laws against rape even between married couples.
