Young women jellies: Do you feel objectified in public spaces?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:@lemming: “I’m kind of sick of older or unattractive people thinking they have a right to look at me. You don’t have a right to look at me!” Can you elaborate on this? For example, is it only “older or unattractive people” that you would prefer not to look at you, or shouldn’t have the “right” to look at you? Edit: I realize this question is addressed to young, female flutherers. Feel free to ignore my question.
