On Sexual Objectification
Jun. 14th, 2013 10:00 amI am going to mirror a comment I just made to a post on sexual objectification. She did point out that while her experiences are male-doing-this-to-female, feel free to substitute whatever genders match your own experiences. Reposting here, and amplifying a bit.
So here was mine:
From the male perspective, "Assuming that, because I am wearing a kilt, I really want strange women to slide their hands under it and grope me."
ESPECIALLY late at night, when I am caught unawares, and I am facing directly into a bonfire...and I jump *forward*. Just for added excitement. Thankfully it was not a prodigious leap.
Remember: Just because he is wearing a skirt doesn't mean he is "asking for it".
(And here I will add: bitching at me because I step away when I feel the back of my kilt start to lift? STFU. And laughing because a 14-year-old girl is trying to find out what's under my kilt? I was in college studying to teach that age, for God's sake woman stop giggling and control your daughter!)
