🅰🅻🅸🅲🅴 (🌈🦄)Car just drove by and one of the guys in it made the 🐈👅 gesture out the window at me.
Not sure if it was an observation based on my aesthetic, or the threat of a 🐰good time🐰, but either way...guys, this is why y'all're still single.
Richard @RBPhotographic@alice I never realised how bad it was for women until my wife had me follow her at a discreet distance while she was jogging on her own. I learnt why she only went jogging with me and that many men should not be allowed out into the world with supervision.

It's real, friend. If I go for a run, I either do it at the gym (although theres no guarantee I wont be harassed there either) or I carefully plan a route and time where I know the risks are minimised/CCTV/other people around. Even then, a high percentage of the time you're getting some dickhead calling out or gesticulating.
Yet when you talk about 'male privilege' some still deny it exists.

I often catch myself wondering "why would people do their run/jog on the pavement of the South Circular (one of the rather polluted ring road not far from where I live in London) and then I remember it's all a matter of feelings safer here than in a nearby park after dusk...

Exactly that. And then you're wondering what you can wear and what you shouldn't wear. I wear sports leggings to run in because they are the most comfortable thing but, you want a dark colour so they don't draw attention and a tee-shirt which isn't too fitted. I always wear either a beanie or a baseball cap to cover my hair and would never run outside in shorts, unless I'm with other people.
It's actually fucking exhausting to have to think like this...
@Jaimieserotica
And if you wear dark colours, you can also be blamed for not being visible enough if a driver runs you over.
Catch 22

Hi-vis tops are fine (as long as they aren't fitted) dark leggings don't show the shape of your legs and ass as much as lighter ones. Pale coloured running leggings seem to be an invitation to be harassed.
I would never exercise outdoors in anything other than full daylight anyway.

@Jaimieserotica the fact that "does this read as `asking` for it?" is even a passing thought in most women's minds is a mark of just how wholely society has failed to address the actual problem.
