'My therapist told me I needed to get angry, but I was mad at the boys who intimidated me, followed me home, and ridiculed me in the hallways. It felt wrong to be told to get angry because I already was angry.' (via WMC's the_fbomb)
The tears I showed to my therapist, parents, and school administrators in tenth grade never felt like they appropriately represented my true feelings. My therapist told me I needed to get angry as I sobbed in her office and discussed my anxieties, but I was mad at the boys who intimidated me, followed me home, and ridiculed me in the hallways.
The normalization of bad behavior in boys at the expense of girls further hindered my ability to feel and express anger caused by those boys’ harassment. Even though their behavior was often dismissed by adults, deep down, I knew it couldn’t be fully OK because of how it made me feel. Messages like “boys will be boys,” which I often heard, invalidate and dismiss the way girls feel when boys mistreat them.
