100 Thieves\u2019 Valkyrae has perfect response to being catcalled in Japan Twitch stars Imane \u201cPokimane\u201d Anys and Rachel \u201cValkyrae\u201d Marie took time off from streaming for an impromptu trip to Japan \u2013 but their overseas vacation didn\u2019t go completely as planned. While it\u2019s a reality that many women deal with, the broadcasters got caught in an uncomfortable situation during their night out on the town, which they captured during a live stream while walking the streets of Japan. Both Valkyrae and Pokimane were broadcasting their adventures in the country when a stranger accosted them, pointedly catcalling Valkyrae as they walked by. \u201cHey! What\u2019s up, shawty?\u201d the man repeatedly asked. \u201cShe has a boyfriend, I\u2019m sorry,\u201d Pokimane interjected, attempting to defuse the altercation. However, Valkyrae\u2019s response to the unwanted attention was far more blunt: \u201cYou\u2019re short,\u201d she retorted, obviously unamused by the man\u2019s catcalling. That wasn\u2019t enough to dissuade the suitor, though, who followed the streamers as they walked away. \u201cWhat do you think about my fashion?\u201d he asked \u2013 but his comments did nothing but make the women laugh. \u201cYou are the shorty!\u201d Valkyrae continued, wagging her finger in mock anger. \u201cI told you, he said that when we were upstairs, too! \u2026you are the short one, mister! We\u2019re the same height!\u201d According to the streamer\u2019s comments, this wasn\u2019t the first time the stranger had accosted her in hopes of a romantic relationship that evening \u2013 but Valkyrae was very obviously not interested, going on to question the odd \u201ctransition\u201d of the conversation to his wardrobe. While she and Pokimane made a lighthearted joke of the affair, this wouldn\u2019t be the first time catcalling has been caught during a live broadcast: in fact, one streamer got a verbal thrashing from an angry father on camera, after making lewd remarks toward his underage daughter. https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=zEI97UlR2PU The dad\u2019s stern warning served as a valuable lesson to streamer \u201cPrince Aladdin,\u201d who was even berated by bystanders during the altercation. Although Prince Aladdin\u2019s case was less amusing, both instances serve as important reminders that catcalling is never okay \u2013 no matter the situation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
