A pilot program by the North Nottinghamshire Police in the UK has begun recording sexist incidents, such as wolf-whistling and street harassment, as hate crimes. Authorities believe that taking a harsher stance on everyday sexism may prevent escalation into serious sexual violence. Critics question the legal definition of "hate" in the context of taking photos or making verbal remarks.

Police in Nottinghamshire, England, have begun investigating misogyny as a hate crime, reporting 20 investigations in the first two months of the scheme. The hosts criticize the move as a distraction from serious crime and mock the title of "hate crime manager."
