I got catcalled regularly from the ages of about 12 to 19, most frequently around the ages of 14 to 16. Then it basically stopped entirely.
Oh my God, I still get this at mid 50s and don't think I even fit the stereotype of hot older lady - I thought it never ended. Fully expect to be 90 and have someone yell "lookin' spry, Grandma!" as they drive by. It's ridiculous and I don't think it's serious just thoughtless nonsense.
I live in a bigger city with some heavy foot traffic areas. Those are normally where I get comments still. I feel part of it has to do with the fact that some of them actually think they aren't creepy, and others know you won't fight back on it and enjoy your discomfort.
