Unknown man:
Hey, nice thing.
I ignore him and keep walking.
Unknown man:
Are you going to ignore me? Grumpy bitch.”
Naeeda Aurangzeb has been a woman for almost half a century and is satisfied with that, but men in particular regularly have very specific ideas, suggestions or advice about this. From mansplaining to inappropriate comments and stares, no woman is unfamiliar with these experiences. Male executives, doctors, colleagues, relatives and friends, they all know exactly what it’s all about: being a woman. And so as a woman you go from micro-aggression to micro-aggression, day in day out, through life, all around the calendar year. Women are tired to say the least. Sometimes even downright depressing, and dangerous. ‘A feast of recognition’, for every woman, has never been such an inappropriate statement as it is now.
