I’ve always been told to stop crying, quit being emotional etc.
But when I cried in front of my partner, they hugged me cause they knew I don’t like showing my tears. When I was done crying, they simply wiped my tears away and asked “what can I do?”
Been shammed at school workouts for hanging a shirt around my neck while boys don’t bring a shirt at all…A FEMALE coach told me to act ladylike. For who? My MALE ADULT coaches? Or for myself? Or for rape culture?
