I did this for a while at 5'2". They did not move and dammit it hurts running into people. So I have folded and I move. But I’ve been working out. I’m about to get back out there and reclaim my rightful space because follow sidewalk traffic rules bro! Walk on your side!

I don’t think expecting men to treat women differently because they’re women ever works out well for women, even when the actions themselves are beneficial. It places women in a distinct “other” category. I’d much rather that “real men” treat me like they treat everyone else. Which is not to say that they shouldn’t be…

Can I recommend cannibal dismemberment? Sends a much stronger message.

You inspire me. I only do this when back on campus for homecoming. The drunk frat boys give me O face and say I should be on our D-line. Their girlfriends get pissed that their dates can’t move outta my way.

I do, too, but I think I’m just going to start biting. Either they move or i go to jail. Win/win.

Do you also get the most incredulous faces? Like WHOA I AM A MAN YOU SEE ME RIGHT?

In a similar but unrelated note, I now bump into men who walk right into my path instead of moving to the side as we pass on narrow sidewalks.
