[+] Phen@lemmy.eco.br -21 points 1 year ago (2 children) Not getting mad when someone feels threatened by you is a pretty good start. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Lightor@lemmy.world 44 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 child) Constantly being treated like a bad guy, no matter what you do or how hard you try gets wearing. Right or wrong, it makes some men apathetic. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] samus12345@lemm.ee 8 points 1 year ago (1 child) Either I look really non-threatening, or I'm just oblivious, because I've never noticed this. Probably a bit of both. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Lightor@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago I'm a bigger guy, about 6'3" and about 230 lbs, so I get that I look intimidating some times. But I've honestly just walked past a woman and smiled at them and get a nasty look. I go out of my way to put out a happy and positive image and still sometimes get looked at like I'm some threat. It's tiring and honestly at some point you just stop caring. I stop smiling and reassuring everyone smaller than me to make them feel better, because what's the point. I've become jaded. permalink fedilink source parent [+] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works -7 points 1 year ago (1 child) If I'm going to be treated like a bad guy NO MATTER WHAT I ACTUALLY DO, I might as well be a fucking bad guy.

Why are you bitching at me about it? I've never struck a woman. Women have slapped, scratched, punched, kicked, bitten and spit on me. I've never sexually assaulted a woman, I was sexually assaulted by female classmates in middle and high school.
