Fighting Unwanted Cat Calls, One Poster At A Time
by Stephen Nessen
It’s hard to go unnoticed in New York City, with everyone checking out the latest fashions and hairstyles. As the weather warms, some women who are shedding those winter layers are finding themselves the object of more cat calls, whistles and roving eyes than they’d like.
Artist Tatayana Fazlalizadeh is not going to take it anymore.
Under the cover of darkness, wearing a black knit hit, black leather jacket and black Chuck Taylors, Fazlalizadeh is nearly invisible. She’s scouring Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, for a blank canvas.
“This is one of those spaces that I’m not sure about if it’ll work,” Fazlalizadeh says. “I might put this up and tomorrow morning it’ll be taken down because it’s somebody’s property. I don’t know, but we’re going to try it anyway.”
The 27-year-old takes a long look down the street for police, then reaches into a plastic grocery bag and pulls out a blue water bottle. She squirts down a blank wall with wheat paste and slaps up one of her trademark posters. It features a stark pencil drawing of a young woman staring sternly with the words below in bold type: “Women are not seeking your validation.” [Continue reading and listen to the story on NPR.]](http://24.media.tumblr.com/a90f9deb6a5b99d56e70b98ae6c0fab3/tumblr_mol7xpHl3J1qzmh88o1_500.jpg)

"Why is the term “friend zone” so popular when the term “unrequited love” already exists and is more accurate? I suspect it’s because it shifts the locus of responsibility. “Unrequited love” focuses on the person who has the crush. The feelings being discussed are the crushing person’s, thus the responsibility is on them to get over their crush and move on. “Friend zone”, on the other hand, focuses on the crush object’s choices. The phrase erases the agency of the crushing person. All blame for their pain is put on the crush object. “Unrequited love” is something that can happen to both sexes, but “friend zone” is a sexist concept that implies that women are solely responsible for men’s happiness, and not men themselves."
