![]() ![]() I don't want a gun either, I don't want that kind of power in my hands or in my house. I've taken self defense classes, but even still, I'm the type of person that will "freeze" instead of fight or flee. The fear of what could happen overshadows any enjoyment I might get. I know that if I went on a hike solo, there is a very good chance nothing would happen, however I would not enjoy my time in the woods anyway. but I've had the fact that I cannot do things solo (no matter where I am) crammed into my head all my life, and when I doubted that fact. And, where you go is also a huge factor- if you're in a sketchy place, both men and women are going to be nervous, of course. ![]() I want to add that of course men can and do also feel this way, women don't have the market cornered on the fear of something terrible happening when going out alone. Thanks for all the awards and solidarity. ![]() It makes me so sad/angry.Įdit: Holy moly, I didn't expect to wake up to this. my boyfriend doesn't get it at all, he thinks I'm being silly.

This happened earlier in the week and I’m pretty sure it’s just one of those cliquish park moms who can’t mind their own business. As some have pointed out, it may not be a gender thing some people are just a******s. I bought her ice cream afterwardsĮdit: I appreciate the kind words and awards- the judgement isn’t an everyday thing, just something that happens every once in awhile. but my daughter did, "my daddy says not to take to weirdos" (we use weirdo and strangers somewhat interchangeably in our home). Not having people look at you suspiciously when you take your daughter to the park.ĭon't get me wrong- as a dude I appreciate that it takes incredibly little for me to be considered a "good dad" while for women it takes incredibly little for them to be considered a "bad mom"- I just wish that I didn't literally have some random b***h go up to my daughter and ask her if she felt safe while I was keeping an eye on her. ![]()
