Always men, for some reason.
Im not cute, Im angry.
Whenever someone tells me that, I could cry for the injustice of it all.

None of those who said it understood why I hated it.
But I can never really forgive them for it.
2.I get cut off a lot.
So Ive pretty much stopped talking to everybody.
Whats the point of wasting my breath, right?
4.Are you on your period?
when Im angry and then not listening to a word Im saying.
So, most of the tools and equipment we own were purchased and are used by me.
Like my tiny woman brain cant handle power tools or basic plumbing.
6.I hate when random men tell me I should smile.
Its sad to not be questioned about something I spend all day doing.
8.Im a female electrician who works mostly oilfield.
I get a lot of sweetheart or honey when Im running a job.
You would never address a dude journeyman like that, so dumb.
Name all of the [insert team name here]s previous coaches or something like that.
11.When men dont believe the huge anecdotal evidence that every women/girl I know has about sexual assault.
Sorry, do you think I mistook having my vulva grabbed for something else?!
12.I dont care what you do for a living.
Do you have a good personality and are you hot?
Can you minimally support yourself?
Dont worry about your career.
I care about my career.
Im proud of my work, and its an important part of who I am.
Ive seen some men treat a womans job as an optional accessory or a throw-away personality quirk.
That really hurts and it is extremely disrespectful.
14.Talking about female topics (periods, pregnancy, birth) with tons of disgust in their voice.
Just very dismissive of a womans ability to make decisions on her own.
16.Automatically assuming that youre worse/weaker than them at something, just because youre a girl.
Then proceed to act surprised or just not acknowledge if you beat them.
18.When you say something and it IMMEDIATELY has to be fact checked via Google even over trivial shit.
Get outta here with that shit.
20.Just how focused on physical traits some men seem to be.
Why am I better at it?
22.When they say tocalm downwhen youre upset.
It brushes over how you feel.
Its often used to shut you up when they do not want to hear you.
23.Youre not like other girls.
Men typically mean that as a compliment but I dont really see insulting my entire gender as very nice.
24.Assuming I have or want kids.
I mean, just assuming.
Knowing absolutely nothing about me and just assuming.
25.Constantly voicing their thoughts on womens looks.
I dont know why men do this.
I dont think they realize it.
I dont need to hear every time you think a woman is ugly or attractive or funny looking.
I dont think men would be fond of it if women decided to join in on this.
27.My least favorite is when men wont just let me be upset about something they said.
They have to gaslight me until I agree with them that they didnt do anything wrong.
28.So Im studying something that could be classified as very feminine.
29.If a man gets it wrong its because the task is complex.
If a woman gets it wrong its because shes a woman.
Whats the planet with the most moons?
At the time, Jupiter had the most moons and I said it was Jupiter.
He claimed that I was wrong and wanted me to google it so we could be sure.
Of course I was right, and he said, Youre a little show off, arent you?
I just didnt understand why he had to question my statement.
