I am 5′ 8 and 230 lbs. I am now a vegan, have been one for three weeks, and I have been cycling in order to lose weight.
I was just harassed while riding on the street. A piece of shit in a black car honked at me. He yelled, “Yeah baby” as I was riding on the road. I gave him the finger.
I read another account on here of a woman who refuses to exercise outside because of misogynist men like this piece of shit harassing her. It is a shame that women are made to feel this way. It is the fabric of misogyny that we have to deal with.
But f**k that! I f**king refuse to compromise my physical health because some sexist PIECE OF SHIT wants to act like he is 12 years old.
Optional: What’s one way you think we can make public places safer for everyone?
I think we should outlaw this behavior and we should be able to report it.
