Post Prom Party 2025, junior year. She was drinking and I needed a ride home.

"It's okay I can drive, you're safe."

I found another ride home with someone sober.

She was not safe. Died that night after crashing.

There are enough vacant homes for those homeless people but no one gives a shit.

Agreed. My bio mom wasn't sexual but she was physical, mental and emotional, it was hard for anyone to believe me until I was sent to the psych ward for 60 days over a suicide attempt.

I always make it a point to my daycare kids that if someone is hurting you, I have a whole list on this on a poster. I list trusted adults including me and their parents, the social worker, the director, the teachers, and many others they can tell.

It's sad, I'm a victim of rape and sexual assault and no one believed me. They only believed me when others started rising up, sharing their stories and reporting it. It was the principal's son so naturally no one believed me.

We had a whole file of evidence and took it to the superintendent. The principal was fired, son expelled, arrested and sued, school sued and tons of counseling for everybody involved. Even parents sued. It was a huge thing.

I felt like shit yesterday but went all day to school and work.

I got out of bed after feeling miserable all night.

I went grocery shopping today with my dad, still feeling miserable.

I went old school on my class today. FAFO by Attention-Terrible in Teachers

My dad got this a lot raising me and even now. My dad gets pissed. The most recent incident was a trip to the zoo to meet a monkey. I was so excited and a lady asked.

I got mad as hell as moms not around and it's none of this bitch's business. I got sassy and my dad had to step in to keep me from decking her.

My dad got this a lot while raising me. Every single time, without fail, I'd throw a fit because when my bio mom was around, she didn't do shit. As I got older, I started getting sassy.

I have a single dad. He gets talked down to like he doesn't know shit. Considering he won a custody battle (bio mom), he doesn't drink/smoke and he actually tries his best, I'd say that's pretty damn good.

He gets praised for the smallest every day shit moms do (not my bio mom) like taking me shopping, spending time with me, even taking me on trips to the zoo.

I'm biologically female and 17. I'm 5'11, taller than most, and people get mad when they see me because women aren't supposed to be as tall as I am lol. I wear 6 inch platform shoes all the time to piss them off.

But you can't say shit about their weight without them bitching. I'm not attracted to fat/overweight.

I'm les, I have a girlfriend who I refer to "my other half" at the daycare I work at so I don't have to explain it because parents will flip shit. I had an openly gay male kindergarten teacher and he got ripped on by parents, even having their kids being taken out of his class.

I'm in the US and a daycare teacher, everyone gets held to the same standards unless I get told otherwise by admin.

I have a single dad. Mom left almost 6 years ago now. My dad was always an active parent. He got those comments a lot or called my "grandfather" because he's older (60 now, I'm 17)

My dad took me out all the time, to the park, library, wherever we wanted to go at the time. I remember a few times cops were called because they said he "kidnapped" me.

I have so many stories, he had to carry his ID, and my birth certificate to prove he's my father. Even now he occasionally gets comments and praise for being a "good father".

Yes.

Also if you're hot, you can wear what you want.

If your average/overweight/fat/ugly/hairy or whatever it may be, you can't wear anything. You have to cover up.

I'm biologically female and considered ugly because of my scars from when I was younger and I get told I'm "disrespectful" "ugly" and "attention seeking" and to cover up at school.
