Just cussed out a teenage boy for “play fighting” with a girl.

I told her that this behavior will always lead to something worse.

Him: Why are you screaming.? You care more than she does.

Me: Because she doesn’t know any better but she knows now.
Me to Girl: Are you not seeing what’s going on in the world. Toyin Salau, the woman thrown in a dumpster, the woman hit in the face with a skateboard!!!!!

[I was so enraged I forgot I was on a phone call]

Girl: Mmmhmmm

Me: Don’t ever let a guy put his hands on you
I always make it a point to tell young girls I see “play fighting” with a boy to stop.

Usually I can say it w/o raising my voice but tonight I lost it

We’ve trained young girls to think all physical contact is good.

A hit, push, tight hug = He Like You 😚

Not on my watch!
So I implore you all out there.

See something, say something.

We can’t keep failing your young sisters.

By the time they spot the red flag it’s too late cause they let the other slick sh*t go.
Building up a tolerance for abuse doesn’t make the abuse easier.
