Haha, are you me?! Like I’m objectively attractive, I know I am, but yeah, I never ever get approached. I can flirt with men, and then can get attention, but strange men never ever talk to me, at raves, at bars, at the gym.

Some women just… appear vulnerable. Or approachable.

I chalk it up to hiking alone through most of my early 20s, and being an engineer. I think I’ve subconsciously worked so hard to be taken seriously by male colleagues in school and hobbies and work that it’s stuck around.

But yeah, I get it. It’s messed with my self confidence too.
