YP Letters: Wolf whistles are a compliment, not a crime
HOW ridiculous to try and make wolf whistles a hate crime.
When I was 18, I was involved in a car accident and my head was smashed into the windscreen (they were made of glass at that time).
I was horrified at the state of my face, with my eye and mouth stitched, and I lost lots of confidence.

Men get a raw deal these days, women are allowed to lust after Poldark star Aiden Turner, for example, but if men behaved in this way towards a woman they would be in trouble.
It is so unfair, it will get to the stage when men will stop being tactile and end up being afraid to give a woman a hug.
What a sorry state of affairs.
