In a familiar scene on Thayer Street this week, local catcaller Willie Hayes was interested in perhaps acquiring a dollar from the target of his harassment, if that were available.

“Nice legs honey,” Hayes called as freshman Sarah Parker’s silent pity for him turned to disgust in an instant at his harassment. “Also, got a dollar? I would also take that for sure. I’m not choosy, just speaking my thoughts here.”

“Hey sweetie, gimme some sugar,” attempted Hayes on another uncomfortable teenage girl, who quickly broke eye contact and hid her wallet deep in her purse. “And by that I mean sex or just like, a dollar or two. Whatever works best for you is fine by me.”

At press time, Safewalkers would also be down to smoke a cigarette, if you had one.
