I’m going to be a Sophomore in high school this year and I gotta say… I’m fed up with harassment.
When I walk down the halls guys won’t make eye contact, but instead look at my body. Some have even said things like, “”damn look at that aas””, “”I’d tap that””, or even “”that body is fine as hell.””
And hey I don’t shy away from people. I’m very outgoing, but when it comes from them I feel angry. Look at my face, get to know me and maybe you’ll figure out that I DON’T like your “compliments.”
Yes, you might perceive it as a compliment for me, but I surely do not!
