Warning! problemmatic-
So, the title's kinda Ironic because I wasn't actually talking at all yesterday because I was participating in the LGBTQ silence day early! But, basically...I was sitting at lunch listening to my friends talk because nobody was paying attention to the fact I was using google translate to try and chat, and then two boys I know decently began saying how they hated the girls at our school. Everyone else (Including me) was extremely confused because, there's tons of sweet girls at our school.
They just claimed that they didn't like any of them (Which is fair ig) and continued on with the convo until the second boy said, AND I QUOTE.
Boy #2: "I don't understand why women wear extremely revealing clothing and then go, 'StOp StArInG aT mE!' Like don't wear crop tops if you don't want me to look"
And then proceeding to point at a beautiful girl passing by and go..
Boy #2: "You can see her cleavage, and can practically see through her pants!"
It was so disgusting honestly, I don't know why the hell he thought that was okay to do to someone, boy or girl. Her clothes were appropriate and she looked so beautiful. Just as I thought this shit was over the oldest in our group went:
Oldest: "Maybe because women are insecure about their bodies and don't want you to look at them?"That could be a true statement but that most likely isn't the reason, maybe people can actually be proud of their bodies and want to wear pretty clothes? I decided to write down my opinion and show them, I wrote:
"Maybe people want to wear what they want without being stared at? I know damn well if someone was staring at my boobs I'd be uncomfortable."
Everyone ignored me, and moved to another topic. The oldest randomly began telling me because of my silence:
Oldest: "You can't choose to become nonverbal, that's not how it works I should know!"
LIKE WHAT? IM JUST FUCKING SITTING HERE TRYING TO TELL YOU WHY IM NOT TALKING, I SAID NOTHING ESPECIALLY NOTHING ABOUT GOING NONVERBAL-
I've known Guy #1 since middle school and knew I do the silence every year, so he asked and I confirmed.
She continued to accuse me of mocking nonverbal people even though I've explained what I was doing so I wrote her a note and gave it to her, "I'm not nonverbal currently, nor trying to mock nonverbal people. I'm just doing the Silence earlier then it's actual date. It was supposed t be today but then they moved it, so I'm just doing it both days."
She chose to ignore me for the rest of lunch for whatever reason-
I didn't mean to be disrespectful towards anyone, but randomly pointing fingers kinda threw me off. I'm also a neruodivirgant individual who's struggled with speaking all my life and I've had to deal with the pains of going nonverbal before, it really does suck not being able to talk even if you want to.
