Post #5878

A random man commented on the amount of food I was having for lunch Sometimes y'all post stories like this and for the many many MANY bad experiences I've had with men, a stranger stopping me to comment on food and/or weight has not been one of them. Until now... I had dr appts and errands yesterday and after running around for the better part of the day, I stopped at a fantastic well-known deli to grab a late lunch (and my first meal of the day). I bought a kale/quinoa salad and a personal charcuterie "board" (it was a SMALL handful of cheese cuts, sunflower seeds, and dried fruit with a side of honey). These things were given to me in clear plastic to-go containers. As I left the cafe and started walking down the sidewalk, a man in his \~50's matched my speed and said "are you going to eat all that by yourself?" At first, I wasn't sure I even heard him correctly but just said, "I sure am!" and the dude goes "wow, that's a lot of food!" I stopped walking, took my headphones out, and just stared at him for a second or two before saying "...it's a salad and cheese." He looked flustered and goes, "well I'm much older than you, it's a lot of food for me." I said, "that sucks for you," put my headphones in, and walked in the opposite direction. Unreal. I'm 36 yo, 5' 9," and 165 pounds. I had a baby 6 months ago. And it doesn't matter what my weight or height or reproductive circumstance is...or what his intentions were... What. A. Fucking. Moron. Edit: 1. for the last time…dude was wearing a $400 Patagonia parka (I have the same one at home) and well groomed. He wasn’t fucking hungry. Stop making excuses for morons. I don’t got no time for this 2. I get it. My post made it to r/all. To the now ~ 7 men who have messaged me saying some variation of “you’re ugly and mad about it” …since conventional beauty is your thing, I was a paid model for 15 years leading up to my pregnancy (and I’ll keep the weight forever I literally don’t give a shit). I married a short nerd who only had a couple sexual partners prior to me and plays dnd in his free time, because his mind is so pretty and he has his head on straight. You don’t get women because you’re a loser who would rather insult women on the internet than work on yourself. I’m happy to share screenshots of incels harassing me in DM’s. If they are so brilliant and their opinions are so strong, they can share them publicly. RIGHT?! u/okwithok ?!! And u/Powerful-Art-5156 — where you at now? 3. Oh no. My success has REALLY upset the incels. A man in the comments and another in my DM’s went through my post history and said I’m full of shit because I’m an executive when I said I model. It’s not possible to be smart and conventionally attractive to these men? I’m a healthcare executive. I’ve modeled for years on the side. That was my first job. I also am a mixed media artist. Lesser men…are you triggered? Good. I also have a great high kick. Ps: THE GREATEST BEAUTY IS THE MIND edit… OKAY! Show and tell time: u/proud_boomer — says he saw pictures of me and I “look like a trans woman”. He didn’t see photos of me and I’m not sure how this is even an insult since there are a plethora of stunning trans women out there but he assumes everyone must be transphobic like him I guess. Trans women are women. And I love them. u/thotblaster420 — messaged me accusing me of getting him brigaded for calling out his incel DM’s — so he has since harassed “dozens of women” to punish me. He said “I motivated him” to abuse them. I have a screenshot of this. Just four days ago he has a comment saying pussy is better without hair. He messaged me again saying he was banned but just created another account specifically to harass women. u/gottatakeakanyetest — messaged and simply said “fat
