I hate to say it but that “caller” would have a problem with me too. If a man cannot control himself there is something wrong with him and he should seek real medical help.

I’m so sick of the religious fundamentalist narrative that Christianity and Islam have built together that women are responsible for controlling men’s lustful desires. Returning specifically to Christianity, the Bible is pretty clear that “if your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away.” In other words, men, if you’re having problems with ogling the ladies, that’s YOUR DAMN PROBLEM and you need to FIX IT YOURSELF, not complain about how the women are dressing. The Bible says that we should refrain from behaviors that cause other people to struggle as a courtesy, but that’s been warped out of all proportion because apparently it’s way easier to tell all women everywhere to cover up than to tell all men everywhere to quit being creepy and gross.
