Were they getting called out and leered at too?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLara was in eighth grade. She was very tall and thin, and looked like a supermodel. She knew it, and liked to dress a little too skimpily for my taste. But I love her anyway. We were very close, and I knew if I asked her a question, she'd answer me honestly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Lara, can I ask you something?\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Sure, Katzie, what's up?\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"When you're walking around on the street, do random guys call you out and tell you things they want to do to you?\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"OH MY GOD    All the time \" I heard a real sense of relief in her voice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"How does it make you feel?\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Horrible.

On one hand, I felt better that I was not the only person who suffered this kind of treatment. On the other hand, I felt a lot worse, because not only did I have to deal with this, but now I realized that my students--middle-school girls--were being catcalled on the street by men who were probably at least twice their age. This, I decided, was NOT COOL. I had to do something about it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 294\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.62 x 9.61 x 6.69 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 04, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52516831658291,"sku":"9781596878600","price":37.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/K2IyNVk3OXdoUkIvODNLVzVkTEdIQT09.webp?v=1760435868","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/beautiful-being-an-empowered-young-woman-2nd-ed-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
