Has it been a common occurrence of all cultures throughout human history? Does it pervade virtually all mammalian species? It's more common than being gay and we call that natural. Natural doesn't equal right, but it means it is a part of the human fabric. Otherwise it would be rare. Murder is also part of human nature, but obviously should be punished. It's not an issue of "culture" it's an issue of people needing to keep their ancient ingrained dark sides in check. 

Physical harassment and rape you need to stomp out, because you can't have a society where people can hurt one another without repercussions. However so called street harassment, which most people on the left use for "cat calling" is not a real problem, unless it becomes physical or legitimately threatening. 

My uncle once got reprimanded by a woman for opening and holding the door open for her - apparently that was sexist. So this street harassment BS about cat calling being a criminal action now needs to stop and real crimes like rape and physical harassment needs to be punished. Unfortunately it's being taken less serious now due to minor infractions now being blown out of proportion. 

"Physical harassment and rape you need to stomp out"

we haven't yet in our society so how would you suggest we do so?

We've done enough already. You will never eliminate it, trying to only leads to overreach like banning cat calling.
