High school girls strike back

So there's this guy on Dunlap Street in Dorchester who always stands out on his balcony and sleazes on every woman and girl who walks past. One day, his attention was deflected from me to a group of high school girls walking by-- wearing back packs, obviously underage-- who were going about their business when he called out, 'Heey, ladieees!' One of them asked her friends, 'What'd he say?' to which another responded, 'He said "Hey ladies," ... like a faggot.'

Admittedly, queerphobic slurs and gender policing aren't the answer to sexist harassment, but the harasser in question was so upset it was almost worth it.
