Many men say things like "lalaki kasi", "lalaki lang ako" as if they are excuses to act like douches. This excuse often comes up when women wear clothing that is not generally considered as 'maria clara-like'. But this excuse eventually exposes itself simply as a macho alibi by putting the blame on what women wear. In this video, it is even revealed that no matter what women wear, men will always act sexually aggressive towards women simply because they think there is nothing wrong with it.
In this social experiment, a woman walked the streets of New York in casual clothes in a hijab. We see a series of men trying to hit on the girl even though she is obviously just walking. If you are saying "but they are just going their appreciation to the girl!" then you probably do not experience being hit on on a daily basis. It feels like everyone is out to abuse you, that's how it feels.
