The serious nature of disrespecting women, specifically cat-calling, has been in the lime light recently. Happening all over the world, cat-calling feels like a nasty cultural phenomena that will be hard to quash. Luckily, one hilarious Peruvian T.V. host dreams up a clever way to end street harassment in Lima.
The video begins with a caption, “Women fear sexual harassment more than getting mugged.” Following, one determined woman from Everlast vows to get rid of sex offenders, but not through conventional means, she's got something special up her sleeve.
After tracking down two repeat offenders, the T.V. host contacts their mothers and asks them if they'd like to participate in a little prank. Dressing up these ladies to appear younger than they are, the T.V. host instructs the two mothers to walk by their sons on the streets of Lima, Peru.
Of course, the two repeat offenders can't resist cat-calling what they assume is just 'another woman.' Little do they know, they're actually harassing their mothers.
The first incident is hilarious. As the mother walks by, the son yells out “tasty panties!” Well, the mother does not appreciate that one bit. She turns around and confronts her son, Renzo. After realizing who he's actually offended, Renzo becomes timid and embarrassed.
You're not the big tough guy who harasses woman on the street anymore, are you Renzo? At least not when mummy's involved.
Renzo tries to explain, but mum is not having any of it.
Concluding the video, the T.V. host explains that more than 10 million Peruvian women are harassed. She calls viewers to share this video in the hopes that this demeaning form of disrespect will come to an end.
