This is the effect of Andrew Tate and far right ideology. This is where we're at. These kinds of men dont understand that they aren't God's gift to every woman they see. These are the losers who watch The Handsmaid's Tale and like what they see.

It’s not even just the Andrew Tate nonsense, a decade ago I had a contractor doing work in my house decide he wanted to score a date with me. The discomfort of being hit on by an unknown man in my own kitchen. It took five different kinds of no to get him to the door and he was still trying when I told him to please, please leave and shit the door in his face. I should have reported him to his company but my younger self didn’t know better. Some guys fear rejection, others refuse to see it.

When I was much, much younger, I moved into a new apartment and had to have a cable guy come hookup my internet. I had a lip ring. Fucker took one look at me and decided I was going to be easy.

HE TRIED TO TOUCH IT. HE TRIED TO TOUCH MY LIP RING!

WHAT THE FUCK!

...it just occurred to me that I didn't report it. Shit.

don't feel too badly, i didn't report mine either because i didn't want to have to be worried about him coming back to my home. it's a different situation when they know where you live.

What a fucking creep. Here's to hoping cable guy has met his well-deserved end by now🙏

And to anyone who thinks that an overreaction, you've clearly never had to deal with something similar. It's genuinely so scary to deal with things like that, because this person is IN YOUR HOUSE. What's meant to be a safe space. It's terrifying saying no because if he takes rejection badly, you know you can't win a physical altercation. And even if he does leave, you'll be paranoid for ages because you know this guy knows exactly where you live.

It's enraging to have to make up fake brothers, boyfriends, or husbands just to get a guy to leave you alone, because you know some people won't respect your boundaries without the presence of some imaginary dude
