Whenever I hear people whistling at each other across the street to communicate, it hardly ever seems to be a White, African American, or Asian—it’s always a Mexican Does the frequency of a whistle carry farther than voice frequencies across a ranch, the desert or Mexico City traffic jams? Or is it learned behavior from living in an ambiguous environment (immigrant-friendly and -unfriendly) that whistling is somehow more discreet? Or is it cooler to whistle instead of yelling the other person’s name?

I think it's rude to whistle to get someones attention, No one else is a dog,
I can't speak for them, But possibly that may just be what is socially acceptable in their enviroment.

Whistling is not a crime but a nuisance. If whistling already causes public disturbance, then the person making the noise could be complained in the nearest law enforcement agency.

I guess we could just shift our methods to that of the blacks, by shrieking loudly. I'm sure that'll be much more palatable -- HEY! YOLANDA! WE UP FO SUM O DEM CHIKINZ?!

I have noticed that also, they wistled at me all the time in the packing house, I just thought they were trying to hit on me or something, so I just ignored them.
