I bought & read a copy of Games People Play some years ago. (But thanks for the recommendation.) Although I’ve read the book, “the” reason why men catcall remains opaque to me. I can think of multiple reasons, and multiple ways to describe catcalling as a Game, so merely pointing at the book tells me nothing new.
By the principle of charity, I figured Salemicus had something more usefully specific in mind. So I looked at the table of contents, guessed at some Games they might have been thinking of, and put them out there as a starting point. I wasn’t about to reread the whole book just to try making Salemicus’s comment click.
