Sexist jokes, but not aimed at us
I’ve been present for some pretty sexist and misogynistic talk. It wasn’t about me or aimed at me, so I stayed quiet—I stayed out of it. But I actually think men take power from saying these types of things in front of a woman, and seeing that she remains quiet. So I’m raising hell now when I hear these comments, whether or not they’re directed towards me.
