I was about eleven. My 14 year old sister and I walked across the street to get ice cream while my mom waited by the car. On our way back, there were some boys standing against a wall. They were probably around 12. They whistled at us. My sister just kept us walking back to our mom. I was too young to understand what it meant. Now I’m not. I look back on it and think “Damn. Eleven years old.” I was too young for this bullshit. I am grateful I didn’t understand it but I wish it hadn’t happened. Why are 12 year old boys already educated on how to objectify women? What the fuck is up with that?
