I went to goodwill and bought a bunch of stuff earlier today. Was riding a post-spending spree high out to my car when the guy parked behind me said “Excuse me! Excuse me!” And I waited bc I figured maybe he needed help with his car or something. And then he said “Sorry but can I get a picture of your toes?” I was wearing sandals for the first time in maybe months ? It was dark. Suffice to say I peeled out of that parking lot. But yeah. And that was today. 45 minutes ago.
Have stories. Ive been groped twice, once by a kid (i was also a kid) randomly walking by (while his dad laughed)…. once at a school event by someone much older (who asked me 4 times to come to his car with him and wouldnt listen to my no) I’ve been told some crazy (sexual) things by random men as i walked by them or they walked by me. I’ve had men comment on my chest, my own grandfather was not allowed in a room alone with me because of they weird comments he would make I say all of this
Because i have been so sheltered and protected from this stuff all my life. I don’t party with men, until 20 i didnt even leave my house alone unless it was a really quick trip to the store. I dont go to sketchy places, i don’t go out at night, i don’t let my guard down ever. Yet i still have stories. Every woman has stories. Im not one who has this conversation a lot, but it just dawned on me how crazy it is that even i (tho great attempts were made to shelter me from these things) have these
Stories. I mean shit i was at a family boardwalk in a really nice area up north with my cousin, 13 years old, fully covered in a loose romper, with no curves yet, and someone walked by and put his hand up my loose shorts. A 13 year old whose father saw it and then laughed. That is insane. That is really insane.
bro someone walked up to me once outside my own home at 3am and said “you tryna suck some dick” and then actually looked SHOCKED when i said no. he was like “wait what? no?” maybe he was in psychosis or smth but he was like 21 and completely normal looking he didnt look on drugs or crazy or anything
