I lost a privilege I didn't know I had

I smiled at someone yesterday, which was apparently interpreted as an invitation for sexual harassment. I am learning that this is something you don't do, smiling casually at strangers in public, not unless you are a heterosexual cisgender white male, you do not do this. Before I came out, before I stopped watching the way I walk and hold my hands, before I stopped wasting all that energy pretending, they all thought I was straight. When I was "straight" they let me walk alone at night. Let me hold a partner's hand without thinking. They let me smile at strangers.
