We're on a busy street corner, and it's still light out.

"Let's say say goodbye here so we don't do the awkward corner thing and stop traffic."

He tugs me along. "I'm gonna cross too and walk you to your apartment."

"No...go ahead to your thing, I'll walk myself."

"No." He continues walking in the direction of my place.

"You realize this is now non-consensual, right?" I say it without even a hint of a smile.

"So? I want to walk you there."



So?



I'm giving up on people at my uni. When someone's desire to do something overrides consent in any action, big or small, that someone is a total nimrod and has no regard for your personal feelings, wants, needs--or lack thereof.

Run real fast. Don't stop running until you find someone who will always respect your wishes.

Maybe dudes are more chivalrous over there or something, because I have never had that problem before.

*Run*
...is exactly what I was thinking when I got to the end of your entry.
As in, I'd like to see someone run as soon as the guy says "So?..." EXACTLY. Imma run, and see what you do with THAT. Hi-ya!
