Women Are Revealing Their Awful Experiences With “Pretty Privilege,” And It's So, So Messed Up


8.

“My story is from the Geauga County fair in Ohio. I went to the county fair with some friends, and towards the end of the day, I got separated from them when we went to use the restrooms. I didn’t have my cell phone at the time because one of my friends was holding it for me. I saw a man walking along one of the paths and asked him if I could use his phone to call my cell phone and locate my friends. I’ve always had a very soft, feminine voice, and he immediately agreed. I had been in an unlit area when I first talked to him, but as we got closer together and he could see me, he suddenly changed his mind and said he didn’t really let strangers use his phone. Literally, NOTHING had changed except for the fact that he could now see my face.”
