Got catcalled for the first time the other night, pretty shitty ngl. If you expect it to feel euphoric it really doesn't, it was more along the lines of 'oh, I have to deal with this shit now.'
Otherwise dealing with the usual spring-special of seasonal depression making my dysphoria worse. At least it's not as bad as last year's now that I'm on HRT.
One time I got catcalled by a straight guy outside a lesbian bar and then he got up in my face and drunkenly asked me out as I was trying to go in
Drunk really isn't an excuse either
Yeah it really sucks :/ hope you're not too shaken up
I'm mostly not since I got lucky and couldn't hear what they said exactly. At the moment I was just struck by how... Weird? Yeah, how weird it felt.
I'd imagine it would partly depend on how much of a threat they seem to be? Only time I dealt with something that was somewhat ewwphoric was long before I realized I might not exactly be cis. But dealing probably accidental sexual harassment led to some mixed feelings (one of which was sorta happy to experiencing something I assume was more common for women... and that was a stronger feeling than the uncomfortableness), but like I didn't even think it was intentional and there wasn't really any perceived risk of escalation.
not really, no. it's kind of always scary, even when the dude is like 80. there's always other dudes they're performing for.
Yeah it's only recently started sinking in with me now that This Is My Life and I have to deal with misogyny all the time :/ fucking sucks
