I& #39;ve never talked about this before but it& #39;s truly hard getting harassed by random men on a daily basis.
I be simply walking down street getting stalked & catcalled by God knows who as if I& #39;m gonna hand them my number. Some have even tried to get physically & have touched me
touched me inappropriately.
This is called sexual harassment. Screaming & yelling at them doesn& #39;t stop them from further stalking & harassing me.
I& #39;m back to wearing sunglasses, a hat & a mask on regular basis not to prevent the corona but simply to stay hidden from predators.
They (predators) don& #39;t care. They don& #39;t consider us fellow human beings, all they see in their mind& #39;s eye is boobs, ass and a vagina. An object to have sex to and that& #39;s it. If they perceive you as good looking then it& #39;s even worse. "You& #39;re asking for it"
I& #39;ve been asking my dad to drive me & pick me up on a daily basis just to prevent any predators having access to me. Still not enough as wherever I go there& #39;s also someone or a couple of them out there.Even at work. I& #39;m an investigative journalist working with a team full of men
It seems like they can& #39;t help but try to flirt or touch me at any given random moment, someone even might attempt to do me "favors" that I haven& #39;t asked for and be expecting "something" in return. Yes, you can expect my fist down your throat.
I won& #39;t lie & say that "appealing" to them doesn& #39;t grant me any advantages, as the way I am being treated is a little special & different than the way other people & fellow women are being treated at work, or any other place tbh. Yet the negative overshadows the positive at times
Sometimes things get so uncomfortable and extremely inappropriate. I can& #39;t help but put people in their places. But I still do fear for my life when no one else is around. Especially around random harassers stalking me all over the streets..
I might use my words as a weapon, but at the end of the day I remain a delicate fragile little girl that needs protection.
The streets*
Get physical*
they have affected my cognitive abilities and my auto-correct as well :(
