At my school, a lot of black people post up and talk really loud together. On the bus, too.

This.

And also we do know statistically blacks have larger units. This plays a part in their personality.

Probably because the video maker literally edited out all the white people.

(CNN) -- The director of a video showing a woman being catcalled on the streets of New York has weighed in on the seeming racial disparity of the men featured.
Rob Bliss, who posted the video on behalf of the anti-street-harassment group Hollaback!, told CNN that those shown were just a small sample.
"Looking at this as being some type of sample that is completely balanced, I think, is never going to be accurate," he said. "To do that, we would have had to shoot for days and days, and we didn't set out to make a long video."
Bliss, who was inspired by the experiences of his girlfriend, tracked volunteer Shoshana Roberts as she walked through the city over the course of 10 hours. The video shows her being greeted by mostly black and Latino men with calls like "Hey, baby," "Damn!" and "What's up, beautiful?" Some of the men even follow her.
In a Slate article headlined "The Problem With That Catcalling Video," writer Hanna Rosin notes that "The one dude who turns around and says, 'Nice,' is white, but the guys who do the most egregious things -- like the one who harangues her, 'Somebody's acknowledging you for being beautiful! You should say thank you more,' or the one who follows her down the street too closely for five whole minutes -- are not."
Bliss said that during the 10 hours captured on video, there were 108 instances of street harassment, of which he had 30 to 40 scenes with good enough quality for him to consider. He whittled that down to 20 scenes in the one minute and 57 second video. It's difficult to distinguish that about six of the men were white because the faces were blurred, Bliss said.
"We have 18 scenes where someone is visible and on camera, and two of the scenes ate up half of the run time" of the video, he said. "And yes, those two men were not white.
"We knew this wasn't going to be an accurate representation," Bliss added. "For example, there are no Asian men, but that doesn't mean that Asian men don't do this, too."
"First, we regret the unintended racial bias in the editing of the video that over represents men of color," Hollaback! said in a statement released Tuesday. "Although we appreciate Rob's support, we are committed to showing the complete picture. It is our hope and intention that this video will be the start of a series to demonstrate that the type of harassment we're concerned about is directed toward women of all races and ethnicities and conducted by an equally diverse population of men."
Critics questioned the disparity on social media. One tweeted, "To demonize men of color as the only perpetrators of aggression towards women is patently false and irresponsible. #Catcalling."

yeah this probably isn't as much of a race thing as it is a "poor and uneducated" thing

This girl walks by a group of white construction workers and she will likely get cat calls. This girl walks by a group of black doctors and they leave her alone.

I'm guessing that they really didn't edit out very many white men if at all. The woman with that kind of figure, thick but kind of ugly wouldn't attract that much attention from white guys. I'm guessing they said they edited out the white men, just not to hurt the self esteem of the black community. If they wanted a woman to attract the attention of white men, they would have put a long legged, blond with big boobs, but then she would get nowhere near the attention, of the thick average looking girl, because girls like that are seen as less approachable.

This is all about political correctness and trying not to step on anyone's toes while still proving a point.

You'd be guessing wrong.

[quote]The video is a collaboration between Hollaback, an anti-street harassment organization, and the marketing agency Rob Bliss Creative. At the end they claim the woman experienced 100-plus incidents of harassment

Yeah, I sure believe all the footage of white guys catcalling just happened to take place next to a siren or something else :rolleyes:
Right he is saying that in reality there weren't that many whites in the video and they are lying and saying "We got a fair amount of white guys" as not to offend any racial groups.

it's a cultural thing. sure, urban blacks harass random girls on the street but you will see the same thing in italy and according to nickyoung it happens in egypt as well. i've seen FOB asians do it.

I rarely see it from more educated people regardless of race though, except for at clubs or bars but that's a given.
