#today #iwastold by a #charity #fundraiser that ‘I should wear more’ #initally I thought maybe it’s not warm enough for a belly top. So I watched a man in shorts and a tshirt walk past, not a word was said to him. Then a group of women in dresses,nothing again. Which leaves me to think it was because I was alone and possibly vulnerable? He was supposed to be working not barking crap at the public?! #notjusthello #womenshould #nowomanever #shoutingback #wwf
random douchebag in the street: *catcalls me and makes comments about my breasts*
same douchebag: *seeing his mother or sister being catcalled* hey, don't talk to her like that! fuck off!
TW: men being assholes, ish verbal harassment, vague references to past abuse.
An open letter to the men who purposefully screamed at me through their car window while I was walking home alone at around 1.15AM tonight, proceeded to watch me jump and scream, and then speed off while laughing:
Fuck. You.
Fuck you so much for doing that to me and reducing me to cowering behind the lamp post a few feet in front of me. Fuck you for making me want to hide behind a piece of steel so I couldn’t be seen by any more of the other cars driving down the road so they wouldn’t do the same thing.
Fuck you for being the cause of me to hyperventilate in an empty residential street about ten minutes walk from my house. Fuck you for making me feel like that walk was an eternity away.
Fuck you for making me scared of the other two middle aged men walking behind me. Fuck you for putting me in the mental place that I perceived two pretty normal/sober(ish) looking men to be a potential threat.
Fuck you for the rawness that is my throat now from gasping in air badly like a fish out of water for the next forty minutes after you had your thirty seconds of fun and drove away.
Fuck you for the way I couldn’t control my fingers and hands as they were shaking trying to scroll through my phone contacts. Fuck you for the way I shook as I tried to jam my keys into my front door lock. Fuck you for the way that I ran down my front path because I suddenly had the idea that something could rip me away from safety when I was so close.
Fuck you for making me afraid to open my bedroom door even though that is the most irrational thing because obviously, obviously, no-one was going to be in my bedroom. Fuck you for making me remember the time in my life when I definitely wasn’t safe in my bedroom. Fuck you for making me remember him. Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you.
Fuck you for making me cry. Fuck you for making me think he was right when he told me I couldn’t make it ‘in the real world’ for a justification for everything he did to me.
Fuck you scaring me.
Fuck you for reminding me.
Fuck you for laughing at me.
Fuck you for hurting me.
Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you
can boys just have the human decency to talk to girls without the soul intention being to fuck them? i swear to god a man speaks to me and if i even want to stay friends i have to not mention i have a bf or theyll fucking hate me. i have to pretend im meat they can use if i want them to even pretend to respect me and i fucking hate it.
A customer was saying how everything in the store is on sale and my manager-the manager of the store-said, referring to me “She’s not!” so I guess I’m a thing now?
whenever a guy says “I’m telling you this as a friend” and then says something sexist I immediately stop considering that person a friend
Why Is This Seen As Acceptable?
I was in the local shop earlier paying for my stuff, when this voice rang out behind me, “Oh, are you in the family way?”. I turned round, and it was the local busy body, who a while back, kept loudly commenting of my using my walking stick (I have a bad knee). I joked about it, but I don’t get why some people seem to think it’s their right to ask women they don’t know if they’re pregnant, especially, if like me, they basically kept their post pregnancy body, or aren’t slim. It’s incredibly intrusive.
I want to eat mee goreng Mamak so bad but I also don’t wanna go to the nearest Mamak restaurant ‘cos the workers there stare at my chest without shame.
Another procedure involves a woman’s writing down all the abusive names her partner has called her. The woman then notes how frequently (how many times per day, week, month, or year) her partner has called her each of these names. She then multiplies each frequency by the length of time she has been with her partner. Finally, she sums these totals to obtain a grand total of the abusive verbalizations that have been directed at her for the duration of the relationship. (These grand totals sometimes run to five or six figures.) When this procedure is used in a group, the women can be asked to compare the names they have been called, and they invariably find that their partners tend to use the same epithets. As a result of this procedure, a woman in an abusive relationship can come to see both the extent to which the verbal abuse has eroded her self-esteem and the fact that the words directed at her have little to do with her as an individual. Rather, they are names that men call women—every woman.

Two years ago today. Still annoyed #brownschool #washu #sexism #everydaysexism #leavemealone (at Brown School at Washington University in St. Louis)
Tonight I had to listen to a dude gleefully describe a BMW commercial wherein Madonna is deliberately and violently thrown around in the back seat of a car for being, and I quote, “a stuck up cunt” and I can’t put into actual human words how horrifyingly exhausted I am that this combination of fear and disgust is a regular occurrence in my life
I’ve been trying to pick out positives from the shit-show of a meeting yesterday, so I don’t feel like a complete failure of a person.
I stood up for myself and called out the men who surprised me with this meeting on the bullshit that it was, multiple times, despite the fact that I was sobbing.
I acknowledged where I was in the wrong, but didn’t let them put all the blame on me.
I walked back in today with my head held high.
Fucking douchebag director (from a previous high-tension meeting) refused to say good morning to me today. I count that as the biggest victory.
It’s easy to pick on mentally vulnerable women when you are an uncouth bully; it’s not so easy to figure out what to do next when said vulnerable woman looks you in the eye and calls you out on your bullshit, even though she’s crying.
One day the security guard at my local Tesco is gonna call me “ma'am” as I walk in the door (as he does EVERY time) and I’m just gonna snap. I’m not gonna yell, or go for him. I’m just gonna fucking crying. Bawl my fucking eyes out. I’m fucking fed up of walking in, eyes down desperately hoping he isn’t gonna notice me and it happens every time. To every women from the looks of it. I’ve never seen him greet a male customer and call them sir. I’m so fed up of it.
Ugh ugh ugh
I sent an e-mail to my work team this morning saying that I was running late because I had a flat. My boss IMs me once I get in to check and make sure everything was fine, which is nice, right? I’m like, yeah, I got it filled, we’ll see if it holds. Then he goes, “get one of the boys to help you out.”
Dude. I said I filled it. All by my little girl self! Imagine that!
tfw you “set someone up” by simply existing in the library and then declining an invitation to leave with a stranger
So true !!! 😩 #tothegirls #everydaysexism #freethenipple #yesallwomen
let me just leave this here…
