This whole point goes back to the fundamental need for education among members of my gender.
It shocks me still but for some reason there are a great number of my gender who need to be educated as to what is and isn't acceptable. The problem is that requires introspection from a great number who aren't willing to admit they have a sexist bone in their body. I look at the world and know from personal experience of being raped when I was 8 by a friend of the family. I still don't like to be touched by people I freak out when someone even just playing touches me unexpectedly. Mind you now I'm 6 foot and still built like a football player. So I can imagine it's worse to be a female going through a world that's designed against them and their health and I am sorry.
