How about men stop commenting on women's bodies?

"You're kind of tall for a girl."

"Your legs are pronated." (No, they're not haha).

"You should do more squats to tone your a s s."

"You're an endomorph."

"You're kind of small."

"You're kind of chubby."

"You're too skinny anyway."

"You're kind of cute in an alien way."

"You're not classically attractive."

Just move on. I don't have to be anything for anyone, and I happen to finally like the way I look.

But I can't say these comments don't stick with me and challenge my view of myself.

These are quite the ice breakers
caccoon · 36-40
@caPnAhab yeah, I just take care of myself and be a person I hope is making the right decisions

It is not the way I look, but the things I can do that will make me valuable
caPnAhab · 26-30, M
@caccoon I'm glad to read that. I think that's a good mentality
caccoon · 36-40
@caPnAhab it is 💙 my life is amazing without having to worry about how I look all of the time.

I hope we can all feel that eventually.
The fact that you’re lovely is a given in my book. What infuriates me the most is that in the year 2026, with all the advancements this world has seen, there are still men who feel well within their rights to say such things. And they need to be told in no uncertain terms that it’s unacceptable and will not be tolerated.

@OlderSometimesWiser you're right. I will start enforcing this 😤
@caccoon You go girl!

Just sayin anyone who is commenting on your body that is a vendor at that market should know they could *lose their fucking stall for sexually harassing the manager*.
caccoon · 36-40
@CountScrofula yeah luckily that dude has been away from market since July and is probably going to lose his spot for bad attendance
There's some f'ed up men up in your area

@Bexsy I must attract them

Sometimes I think I make them the way they are 🤔
@caccoon it's not you..you aren't responsible for other people's behavior. It's a choice on their part

People actually say this stuff? I stopped caring about what men think circa 2000
caccoon · 36-40
@MyNameIsHurl YES these all came from people I have dated

And I am going to do my best to not care! It's getting much better, but someone told me my legs are pronated lately and it makes me wonder if that's why my mum always made fun of the way I walked and sh i t like that
MyNameIsHurl · 46-50, F
@caccoon Yeah dont listen to those idiots.
Elessar · 31-35, M
pronated
endomorph
not classically attractive

Where did this guy come out of? Was him hibernated in the permafrost and global warming thawed him?
caccoon · 36-40
@Elessar three different guys 🤣 they must come from a cult underground
Elessar · 31-35, M
@caccoon Probably British settlers that got stuck in the same ice, maybe even part of the same crew. Victorian age?

Your legs are pronated
Hahah I'm going down the rabbit hole of pronated legs now and thinking I have them.

They say the most stupid things. I always wonder how they think insulting someone is the way to go.

@caccoon im sorry :/ i could already tell dude was shitty by just that comment. I hope you healed and not let him control you with trauma
caccoon · 36-40
@empanadas oh yeah, after that time and he tried to see me again, I explained to him why I didn't want to see him and I never did again

I still see him around town of course, and unfortunately he is the brother of a friend of mine, but he is garbage and I see him as such
