an honest moment

Hon­est mo­ment in the life of a Jes:

Last night on the way down­town I was at a stop­light and some kid, the pure stereo­type of an teenage an­gry white cis­gen­der male, start­ed shout­ing and bang­ing the side of his friend’s car I can only as­sume try­ing to get my at­ten­tion.

Nat­u­ral­ly star­tled, I turned to look. He locked eyes with me while he was yelling and once he saw he had my at­ten­tion we were in a star­ing con­test.

Then he start­ed shout­ing “you wan­na fuck?! FUCK ME.”

I kept a mom glare on my face un­til he looked away and then an­gri­ly flipped him off.

The dri­ver saw laughed and said some­thing to the guy in which he turned back to­wards me, near­ly hang­ing out­side of his car shout­ing “YOU WAN­NA FUCK?! PULL OVER AND I’LL FUCK YOU. YOU CAN’T SAY NO NOW.”

To which my re­sponse, teething in anger (can’t say no? All I did was look at you you fuck­ing prick!) was the mo­tion of the mid­dle fin­ger go­ing into a hole. Me laugh­ing and shak­ing my head no.

Which was enough for him to near­ly fall out of his car try­ing to slap the front end of my car yelling at me to pull over or he’d fol­low me and make me take his dick. Light turns green, dri­ver makes them split off. They don’t fol­low me.

Should I have not flicked him off? Prob­a­bly not.

Should I have not made lewd ges­tures? Sure­ly no. Two wrongs nev­er make a right. Nev­er the less, I re­flect on it as a woman who stood up (how­ev­er in­ef­fec­tive) to a ridicu­lous bul­ly shout­ing for sex­u­al ad­vances, and in do­ing so, was threat­ened to be raped by a chub­by faced-looked like he was still in high school youth.

That’s it. No moral. We’re all ter­ri­ble, emo­tion­al peo­ple. Some a lot more than oth­ers.
