And you did nothing that explained it to her. She saw you suddenly scream at someone who was quietly minding his own business. What could have been an opportunity to educate people turned into "proof" that feminists are shrill, man-hating "fascists," from their point of view. If we just demand everybody think & act like us, they'll just resent us and laugh. Getting louder won't make people listen. Getting smarter, more creative, will. We turn it around by focusing on what women & girls are doing right, not on what men are doing wrong, and the exploitation will dissolve overnight. Power won't be handed over because we demand/beg for it. We take our own power, and theirs can't hurt us anymore.
Porn on my Delta flight this morning!
