Cat-Calling is (Now) a Crime: "Due process presupposes objective standards under the rule of law. Under the UK’s new law, objectively is replaced by subjectively. If someone feels you are biased against them, then you are guilty. For those of you who are concerned about free speech, well be more concerned. The UK law censors free speech: “Unwanted physical or verbal contact or engagement is defined as exactly that and so can cover wolf-whistling and other similar types of contact.” Whatever your opinion of cat-calling (it’s ineffective game and signals low status), it certainly shouldn’t be a crime."
