Women are not meat.
I dedicate this to every woman out there who has experienced the incessant stares, lewd looks, unwanted names, and ceaseless harassment by undesired men. I'm sure we've all had to deal with this in one form or another; online or not.
Do you not find this overly vexing? Anger inducing? Unscrupulous? I'm sorry, but this... this makes me furious. Not to be condoning any actions, but sometimes, when a woman is "deliberately" looking to be given this (dirty form of, imho) "flattery" or "admiration" - and even in some cases, provoking men to do this, I suppose the situation can be triggered by the woman herself.
However, I'm going to go ahead and generalize that women, as a whole, do not like to be called names like "baby" (by unwanted men) nor do they wish to be hassled by men in any way. This is not to say, however, that women do not like to be pampered by being given pet names; we do, but when given by the right people.
I know that every female has gone through this unpleasant experience once or twice: I know I have, and not only do I find this disgusting, but the sole notion that (some) men think they have leeway into directing these derragatory comments towards women is saddening.
I mean, we're not mere objects here.
Anyone else find this wrong? And, just why do (some) guys do this, anyway? Goodness.
