4 days ago was the Women’s Day and I posted a quote by Emma Watson saying”If you believe in equality,you are a feminist. Sorry to tell you.”. Friends started greeting me like “hello feminist!” or “you’re a feminist one” etc, but they made fun at me, because in their minds feminism is something really bad and sexism does not exist at all. I was talking to one of my male friends and he said to me that he is not a feminist, because “..that movement wants men to change and lose the game of pursuing women. I mean you ask too much. If you want equality in the workplace, ok I stand for you, but you want to change us.” He does not understand. He does not get it. I got attacked under my house, a week before Christmas, by a pervert, who grabbed me by my back and touched me like…It traumatized me. Or three days ago, I was going to work and two friends shouted at me” Hey girl,would you give me your ass to bang?”. I ignored them, but I shouldn’t have. That makes me angry. We are just so used at it. Catcalling, funny names, sexist jokes, labelling, AND THEY THINK THAT SEXISM IS NOT A THING. How come? They tell me who to be, what to wear, I hold my keys at night and pretend to talk on the phone, because even the street, where my home is, isn’t safe anymore.They judge me by the length of my skirt. Yes my skirt is mini and no I wouldn’t care if my bf would mind it, because it’s about my clothes, my body and I will wear whatever I want. I’m really sorry about all that. I didn;t know that I felt that angry now. And sorry about my mistakes. I am from Greece, sexism is something you face everyday here. Well, I am disappointed. And angry. And frustrated.
