People wonder why women are angry. I& #39;ll tell you why.
This morning I went to the forest to look for fallen wood from the weekend storm which I could work. Found three lovely fallen boughs and set back home. On the way down, a male runner, in his 50s maybe, starts following me
Constantly making nasty comments about firewood and times being hard and I ignored him. We all know those kinds creeps, he said & #39; times must be hard, what would you do for this, and flung coins in my path. I stopped dead and told him he was being offensive, sexist and a freak
I stood my ground while he rattled off shit, and I took my phone out and said shall we phone the police? He started shouting that I& #39;d torn the forest up. I started visibly dialing ( it wasnt the police, they& #39;re useless and would do nothing to a man) and he started running
I stood until he was well down the road and I ducked and dived down backstreets and ended up on the main road, where there was more people. I felt unsettled and if I& #39;m honest, scared. I& #39;m a woman in her 50s and can handle myself. I think what scared me is what this man woukd do
To any woman in the dark, if he& #39;s so brazen in harassment at 10am. He looked respectable, he& #39;s someone& #39;s office colleague, father, brother, but this is how he treats a woman walking down a road when there& #39;s no witnesses.
