What’s interesting about being a woman is that:

I feel I cannot win.

If I dress like a developer which I’ve worn hoodies to conferences that’s shamed, but if I dress feminine, it is sexualized.

Sometimes, it feels like everything I’ve ever done in my life is reduced like:

science innovation? Naw, bewbs.
Kindness? Naw, bewbs
? Naw, bewbs
Don’t care, bewbs

I am a multifaceted person. Why can’t that be recognized?

Its also maladaptive behavior from men because it’s counterproductive:

  1. Women don’t want to be sexualized without any kind of emotional connection and validation of their humanity
  2. It’s not attractive- it doesn’t work. I have never met a woman who said she accepts this behavior. It’s an auto rejection.
  3. It creates more women leaving dating altogether

@holsta to me it’s not really about the saying. It’s about the reduction of me to a subhuman.
