Literally like two days ago i was listening to men at my workplace talk about how a woman in a different department made a big mistake and literally went “I’m sorry I’m just a girl” and now their level of respect dropped greatly for her bc she didn’t own up to her mistake and trivialized it
an ik i am so wrong for this like this is so anti feminist but i literally love when guys expect less of me. i love being in class and not feeling bad when i have to lean over and ask the guy sitting next to me something. they eat it up. guys love being smarter and im happy to let them be smarter
Sometimes I wonder if the trepidation some ladies have about calling themselves a ‘woman’ instead of a ‘girl’ could have anything to do with the intersection between sexism, misogyny, and ageism? I have heard so many ladies say ‘oh, don’t call me a woman’ or ‘oh, don’t call me ma’am’ and it makes me sad that we both don’t have a solid equivalent to ‘guy’ and that society’s made ladies feel so badly and fearful about growing into a woman. I’m sorry if I’m being the person who’s “too woke”. 😭
