i was at a gas station vacuuming my car the other day, headphones in doing my thing. when i got out, an older man was literally leaning on my car smiling. i took out my headphones and asked him kindly (and scared) "whats up?" he asked "so who you cleaning your car for?" 1/6
i already knew where it was going so i said "uhh, myself and my girlfriend." he laughed and said "oh your girlfriend, huh? like GIRLFRIEND girlfriend?" i kindly said "yes my girlfriend. im a lesbian." he replied "well would your girlfriend care if you had a boyfriend too?" 2/6
as a woman, you know some of the shit men say (especially strangers) is truly baffling, you dont even know how to respond. so i smiled and said "nah man, im a lesbian, im not interested. have a good day tho!" he laughed again. like, BELLY laugh. this was funny to him. 3/6
and as a woman, you also know saying "no im not interested" isnt enough to be left alone sometimes. he goes "well can you clean my car next?" i started getting really uncomfortable/stern. he smirked and said "okay well just know your ass looks realllly nice in those pants." 4/6
i felt really sick and gross after that. he walked away after the last comment but he was tall and bulky and no one else was at the gas station. i got in my car immediately, locked the doors and left, checking if he was following me the whole way home. 5/6
men - please, PLEASE, if us women do not know you, do NOT follow us and do NOT make sexual comments about our bodies. ever. if we dont seem interested, we& #39;re not. that should go without fucking saying. have respect for WOMEN, our BODIES, our PRIVACY and our SPACE. over n out.
