>He's so obsessed with my beauty that he spent a ton of time imagining me naked
>cuz I'm so hot
>ME

The target of a wolf whistle or cat call can express outrage but the give away is the smile they'll have on their face while doing so.

I was once walking home from Uni with a girl and some guy catcalled her from a passing car.
She spent the entire remainder of the day telling everyone we met how terrible and demeaning the incident was, all the while wearing a shit-eating grin on her face. That catcall was her proudest achievement that year I'd imagine.
