When I was a naive little girl
I told my mom that if a man were trying to rape me
I would tell him I was on my period. I was baffled when she very definitively said
“NO. Tell him you have HIV. They don’t care if you’re ‘gross’.
They care if you could kill them.”
customer was buying 300 full sized candy bars so i joked like “girl im coming to your house for halloween 😝” and she gave me the nastiest look, said adults don’t trick-or-treat, and asked if i was mentally handicapped .. omfg
