Feeling silly: Can you whistle?

DD has been trying to whistle recently and asking me to teach her so it made me wonder how many people can whistle.

Re: Feeling silly: Can you whistle?

I can.... and I whistle all the time, mostly without even realizing it.

I actually have people tell me that they are surprised when I am whistling because they don't hear girls whistle a lot. Chat Icon Chat Icon

Funny, my mom can't whistle eitherChat Icon and used to quote my grandmother who claimed that "a whistling girl and a captain's cat will come to no good end".

I love that it annoyed your momChat Icon

Re: Feeling silly: Can you whistle?

I can't and probably out of pure jealousy I hate the sound. DH whistles and I can't stand it.

Yes, but I do it "wrong." I suck in, instead of blowing out. Sounds the same to meChat Icon

Ooh, that would be an interesting poll. I wonder how many people can do that baseball-stadium whistle?

Re: Feeling silly: Can you whistle?

Yes.

I don't ever remember someone teaching me how to do it, though... I can do it inhaling and exhaling, but I'm louder inhaling.

Re: Feeling silly: Can you whistle?

Yes, but I can't make a tune very well. Single notes, or that sliding scale whistle I can do OK. DW is pretty good at whistling songs.
