Immortal
As you can probably guess, Immortal isn’t my real name, but it’s the one I feel comfortable using on here I’m in powerfit (a weightlifting class) at my high school, which is generally advertised as for males (which is understandable, I’m biologically female and the workouts are designed for male physiques) but normally I have no issue with the boys… until a couple of weeks ago I was lifting weights (and I do lift less than most of the boys, I’m built like a pixie, tiny and skinny and not much muscle) and the boys were having a conversation about G-d knows what, when it lead to them talking about the v-gesture (the one that generally implies someone licking someone else’s vagina) and were just talking about how frequently they used that gesture, which is absolutely disgusting. Why do males feel the right to objectify women like this, or even feel that it’s okay to use these sexual gestures in everyday life, especially school? It’s just gross. Lots of the music they play is also rap, and it contains lots of phrases that call women “hos” “bitches” and “whores”. My teacher puts a stop to it when he hears, but honestly? It’s just gross We need to stop letting people get away with this, and teach them this is NOT OKAY Thanks for reading
