I also tell Sarah about an absurd 20-year-long craze called Girl-Watching that taught "genteel" men the "refined art" of covertly checking out women, as well as the avant-garde artist and feminist responses to the treatment of Francine Gottfried who would come to be known as the Wall Street Sweater Girl.\n\nBecome a Patron to support our show and get early ad-free episodes and bonus content\nOr subscribe to American Hysteria on Apple Podcasts\nHead to americanhysteria.com to get merch and leave us a message on our Urban Legends Hotline\n\nProducer and Editor: Miranda Zickler\nAssociate Producer: Riley Swedelius-Smith\nHosted by Chelsey Weber-Smith\nLearn more about your ad choices.
