Wifey had to teach me that you either politely deny advances while trying your best not to bruise the male ego and hope for the best, or rudley deny advances and risk violence.
“Had to teach” is crazy. If she’s a woman it is literally impossible for her not to be aware of her social position and what that means for interacting with men. All you’ve “taught” her is to internalize the idea that the actions of those men are her fault. I’m not saying this to shame you, it’s just that society has got us all fucked up on how we think about gender dynamics. It’s our responsibility to self-reflect on these things because we ALL do it. Not just you.
Oh, sick. Thats my bad. These topics get some people, including me, a little on edge. You’re literally a woman, so you know the topic better than I do lol.
It’s genuinely unacceptable that we force people to live in these ways. Having to present more masc or stop yourself from smiling at strangers. Not to mention the ways that men suffer (albeit a fraction of what women face) under the patriarchy as well. It’s in all of our best interests to change the way we think about gender. I’m sorry that you have to go through that :/
Yeah it’s such a burden on you when other men hit on your wife. Good thing you told her to stop.
Those men would do so whether your wife was smiling or not. You’ve successfully told her to dampen her own joy.
Smiling or not smiling doesn’t stop unwanted advances. That was my point.
In my experience it does make a difference. I am in a similar position with my partner.
Smiling = men thinking you are up to talk or more 🤢
Men will also often tell women and girls to smile if they aren’t.
It doesn’t matter what women do, men will harass us regardless.
I was told to smile.
While I was wearing a face mask.
Even when it's stupid they say it!!
