Hey Baby…Hey Sexy..Wit’ yo fine self…Come ‘er girl…Damn, can I get summa that?
Just for the record, “Damn, can I get summa that?” is never a good introduction.
A few years ago I was walking with a female friend and she was striding ahead about 10 feet in front of me, which I supposed, was enough distance for people to assume we were’nt together. During the course of our 10 block walk she was hit on no less than 5 times, by dudes who not only had no game but who were overall kinda lame and disrespectful, enough to make me up the pace and make sure our connection was a lot more clear to any other potential wack romeos.
When I told her how shocked I was all I got a shrug, and a “whatev, that’s the way it always is.” Now of course I knew about the inequalities women go through on the reg, but this was the 1st time I had seen it so crudely and repeatedly.
Unfortunately, fimmakers Nijlan Mu’min and Monique Hazeur, along with, well, just about every other woman on the planet, knows about this kind of on the street harassment pretty damn well. (more…)
