Sooo I accidentally saw my teachers phone’s homescreen.

[IEatLasers]

I know it’s like funnyhonestly but I’m stull so confused and this was hours ago at this point! Obviously I’m not super upset or anything but first off why your homescreen xD maybe on dates she needs to make sure that is established which again doesn’t sound like a relationship to me. 

 

 

Yeah. Idk I thought it was a common thing. Maybe it’s just common round here 

[DodgeDusk]

Your school sounds weird, friend.

I don't see how cat ownership gives people authority

Dogs have owners; cats have staff.

I’m 17. I’m very used to the “power” of random guys appearing at me, trying to get me to do this or that or whatever. 

 

doesnr really feel like it puts me in a great place for “power” 

 

then. There’s the way male teachers and managers tend to take me less seriously and treat me like my opinions matter less (if I disagree with guys, it’s just “oh she’s on her period” nobody actually thinks maybe I don’t want to do this) 

theeen of course there’s the way teachers always say things like “oh she’s cute she doesn’t need College anyway” (as jokes when I was diagnosed with dyslexia and again when I was struggling in classes, but it’s not a good joke) 

The awful thing is none of this even surprises me, and I know for a fact that it wouldn't surprise any of the women I know.

Such scummy men...  I can't tell you how much I hate the fact that I have to share the soil I stand on with them.  Even worse that they're often given positions that they can lord authority over women and take advantage of them...  But I digress.

Are there any adult women in your life you can talk to about this sort of stuff?  Teachers, religious figures, family members, a psychologist, or friends?  Because they're the ones who can help you most in that regard, I think.

It doesn't; when you get a cat, any authority you might have had is transferred over to the cat.

It's just that they make you think you have authority.

she might make the rules

but i bet we'd break a few rules instead

So if someone punches their cat it's because the cat wanted it?

She’s actually a stickler for rules. 

 

@Ertrick36 not really. My mom left before I turned 3, my teachers I talk to outside of school a tiny bit (most are male anyways) but not serious stuff. Most leaders at my church like, I trust them, but idk some stuff I don’t want to talk about. 

I talk my friends ears off sometimes! But I’m the happy peppy girl! Some things I just can’t ask for life advice for and on topic level of stuff I’ve already complained about and like, for the most part they’re just “I know sweetie me too”

Interesting. My first thought is she's probably insecure if she needs a reminder on her phone home screen that she has power.

That's bullshit, you're not being sensitive, and those people are asses. And if they're teachers then that's especially awful. I'm sorry.

the other side of that coin is that you often get people who are more likely to go out of their way to help you out or be nice to you when you're feeling down

That's only if you're attractive. Being a non-attractive woman is a mortal sin in U.S. society (and many others).

Their loss! I'll hold doors open for anyone behind me. Never had anything but thank yous but then again I've always lived in areas where there seems to be less of a sex divide.

I’m only 17 and there are some guys who invite me to lots of parties. I don’t go because it’s not my scene but I thought I was cool/popular 

then my friend dated one of the guys who does most parties and found out s few of the more guys who are “like that” have a running bet on who can get me to do that sort of stuff first. So I’m super not cool I guess. But it still counts as free drinks I suppose?

Warning warning!

Stay the heck away from those parties.  You don't want someone who just sees you as a trophy.  I'll post more when I'm done with work.

Thanks Rezzy ^^ I appreciate it and yeah I’m def not going. 

Moreso it sucks cuz I thought I was cool but I ain’t lol. If im part of their bets I’ve gotta be like bottom of the barrel gal. 

 

Which is fine I suppose just sucks and isn’t what I thought I was at! 

Also, I think I’m not too into party life. I mean sure around my own house and when I know my dad ain’t coming home for a while I’ll bathe with the door open, or dance weird in my room alone xD 

But idk doesn’t mean I’d publicly do that stuff. And idk for sure but some kids I think do like REAL drugs there like everyone knows they have weed but some of them I think do other things

I don't know if it helps but coolness and popularity mean absolutely nothing once you've left high school; in fact many of the popular/cool kids in my hometown are the ones who never attended or graduated college and are still living where they grew up. As one of the least-cool kids in my high school, well, it suuucked at the time, but I kept my head down, got on with my studies, and it paid off. I've also never had to see any of my former high school classmates ever again. 

And I'll guarantee you're not bottom of the barrel. Plus, that behaviour is predatory. Definitely best not to be seen as 'cool' by predators. 

[IEatLasers]

Well that is true but, at the same time...

idk it just seems cool. I thought I was one of them that everyone know but I think half the people have been kinda laughing at me now. Idk. My friend dumped him anyway <3~ 

 

i have some people I really do hope to see after HS. But many people I don’t care to.
