This is a concept that a lot of people don't understand. Regardless of faith, status, relationship, gender, sexual orientation, or presence you CAN be taken advantage of.
Social media makes us see everything from the things we want to see to the things we don't care to see. Transgender bathrooms seem to be a hot topic right now, huh? I won't be talking about that though. No, I'm going to talk about something else.
Do you think you're immune? Let me clarify this. You have a body and someone can just reach out and touch you. You are not immune. By you I'm not referring to just a woman or daughter I mean YOU a man, woman, young female child, young male child etc.; the whole shebang. Also, by someone I don't mean a transgender woman or a man I mean a man, woman, young female child, young male child etc,.
A lot of people can vouch (whether they want to or not) in their minds that it can be anyone. You may not know them or you may. They could be your friend who came with you to the bar who told you they'd watch out for you when in reality they were just waiting for you to get so wasted that they could take you home unsuspected. It could be your co-worker who just put their arm on your shoulder in a promiscuous way without asking and you weren't okay with it. It could be a family member. Look, people don't want to admit there's a problem with these things and yet they'll mesh and merge together two TOTALLY different things together and say they're related and need to be dealt with just to start some stupid battle that has nothing to do with them.
I won't be one to judge whether a person is messed up in the head until I see proof of what area they're messed up in. People will do what they want with their own bodies whether your religion says it'll put them in Hell or your moral compass is facing South. People will also do fucked up shit and it's the shit they do that needs to be evaluated with THAT person and within the court system. I won't be scarred for life because I see someone wearing a "designated" gender's clothes and I also won't assume that person wants to be the opposite sex, but I WILL agree that a person who violates someone else's bodily freedom and will should get an appropriate punishment. Does a few years to no punishment at all really fit the crime?
Now what WILL scar me is politics... Goddamn politics make my head hurt.
Anyway, lemme know your opinions in the comment section below and also keep an open mind, you're not the only human on Earth nor are we all the same. Of course, don't let me stop you either.
