Are there any women out there who has never been sexually harassed? I really want to know if there is a singler person out there. Oftentimes what's more sad is when you find the courage to tell close friends and family members about it, they express indifference, and victim blame. It makes me furious, but it did help me become a stronger person.
When I and my friend were backpacking, we started talking to this guy just casual chat. We were about to leave and the guy wanted us to take photo of him (he was alone) so we did and he wanted to take photo together. Not a big deal, right? But then this guy back hugged me and had huge boner and didn’t let me go. It was so scary but I kept my smile on not to make the guy angry. I somehow escaped and it didn’t get any more aggressive, but it was so out of no where. I was young and I blamed myself that I was too friendly. I wish I knew better and I could kick the guy’s balls!
What makes you think that you have a right to tell other ppl to get over it? Because someone grabbed your cock once in the night club?? Hmmmm...Incredible how self-centered your comment is!
Only online, thankfully never in person
I really doubt it, but some women are less aware/ have forgotten. It hasn’t happened to me at work in a while (since I rose in status, basically) but happened all the time when I was young. Some women also take it as a compliment (I can’t understand, but have heard people say that about “attention”)
I haven’t been. At least not what I would consider to be real sexual harassment at work or otherwise that was damaging to me. Boys in middle school saying mean things doesn’t count. I’m sure there were other times when some crazy homeless guy on the street said something vaguely sexual in my direction, but I don’t consider that to be lasting psychological damage. I suppose I’m lucky.
I haven't and not in denial just have been lucky to work with good people
I agree, there are a lot of people who don't even realize they've been harassed.
Yea totally. I had an experience when I was 21 yo and I recently realized that I was harassed and that was not okay. I blamed myself that I wasn’t careful enough and I was just thankful it didn’t get any worse. It took me many years to learn that it shouldn’t have happened in the first place.
I’m pretty sure every woman has been harassed or assaulted. And if they answer “no” then they are probably in denial.
And?????? M sorry. I’m following. What about yoga pants?
