I completely got where you were coming from, it's just that as a woman, our experience in the world is so so so different. When you're taught from a very young age to be careful around adult men - literally I was told "Your father and grandfather are fine, but everyone else, stay away" basically. We're told to wear…
Can I ask if you are male or female? I feel that in some ways would be an indicator of how one might react to this sort of threat. As a woman, I think we're constantly told and taught that the only way to be safe is to be proactive about it - to make it as hard as possible for someone to make us a victim. Yes, you're…
Rather than a uniform, perhaps something simple like Tshirt, polo shirt or sweater, and jeans would be a reasonable school dress code. Applies to girls and guys, means that parents could buy one wardrobe, not two, and would fit every budget and most weather situations. You're now not discriminating based on sex or any…
And restaurant ranch is way more loaded up than that - most places make their own by the 5 gallon tub at a time, using mayo, buttermilk and seasoning. I've witnessed it being made, and it's truly horrifying. Bottled buy in the store ranch has other ingredients to keep it shelf stable etc, and I have no doubt that it's…
I have so many crazy restaurant stories, but foodwise, there are two that stand out. I worked at a 24 hour breakfast/coney island/greek joint for a few years. One day, I saw someone put both yellow mustard, and syrup on pancakes, and eat them with apparent joy. Another time, I had a guest who requested that she…
As a bartender, yep. This. All this. People that don't tip are essentially not only screwing over their server or bartender, but also EVERYONE ELSE that does tip. Why is this? Because they're essentially stealing free service from you. My time is limited, inherently most of the time I'm working, it's extremely busy,…
I'm aware that nuns are women, they were literally the only group I could think of that spends most of their lives in a female only space, and thus statistically the most likely to not have experienced this stuff..
Yesterday I had a similar experience, in that I am also a grown, strong, confident woman. I'm 6ft tall and don't scare easy. I was sitting in the middle of a deserted park yesterday reading, not far from the road, but certainly quite alone in the middle of the grass. A young guy comes up to me, and as I see him…
I had the same experience in highschool, walking through a crowded walkway, someone in the opposite direction grabbing my crotch.. I was probably 15? Couldn't even tell who it was.
Are there women out there that haven't experienced any of these things? Are they nuns?
Thanks :D
Genius idea, going to try it!
I believe crystal slippers are fairly Disney appropriate. Duh.
Bras with a layer of padding help the nipple memo thing.. the material is thick enough so that things stay.. a bit more bulletproof let's say?
As someone who works in a restaurant, let me tell you, for many people, ranch is the entire base of the food pyramid. By the SOUP CUP will they imbibe it, and then ask for more.
I HAVE been the only woman in an all male physics course, and yeah it started out as uncomfortable, but I got over my damn self and realized that regardless of genitalia, people are people. I stuck that class out for two years and earned the respect of all the guys..
Unless you're Dick Cheney level evil, no you don't deserve it. Pedophile? Serial Killer? Rapist? If the answer to those questions is no, and I'm guessing it probably is, then no, you don't deserve it. Everyone deserves to live a decent life. We've all done horrible, shitty things in our lives - the measure of who you…
A societal disconnect between the brain and the body maybe... objectifying either gender will also lead to weird consequences for the other.. I don't know, really, just speculation.
