July 30, 2012

Men are such freaking assholes sometimes.  (And yes, women are complete bitches sometimes, too.)

At a bar for happy hour this evening (post yoga, but more on that in a minute) and this guy at the bar---maybe 25?--kept staring at my friend.  Leering, rather.  My friend is almost 60.  A beautiful woman, but...still.  Almost 60.

I crossed by him at one point to go to the ladies' room and he either said to me "Woof" or "Wolf."  He was too drunk to really understand.  And I don't think it was a compliment either way.

But then.  Then my friend goes out for a smoke.  Within a minute I see him get up and follow her outside.

Apparently the transaction went something like this:

Him:  Can I have a drag off that?
Her:  Take your hand off my ass.
Him: Geeze, sorry.
Her:  I said, take your hand off my ass.  This is not how you treat a woman.
Him:  Come on.  I gotta big dick.

She came back in and sat down after that.

And I wonder why the idea of being thin and small scares me sometimes.  That right there is why.  I don't know a single woman who hasn't had a man touch her in an unwanted way.  This is on the tails of finding out a friend was raped last week.

Not that bigger women aren't sexually assaulted.  I have been a few times.  There's just...I dunno...the assumption that I'm more likely to hear "woof" from a guy like than "I gotta big dick."  Which is just fine by me.  His is not a favor I'm wanting to win.

Just.  Really.  The anger knows no end.

An hour of yoga today.  Did good stuff with my hips.  Shook out some trauma during a leg raise.

Meant to get up and run. Didn't.  Meeting Jessie for a walk in the morning.
