Of course, most offenders do their offending quick, and at the toughest times for us to respond.

Here are 15 times all women wish they’d stood up for themselves.

When a cashier gives us special treatment
“I’ll open a new line for somebody that looks like you.” Oh yeah? How about you open a line for the 90-year-old woman who has been standing around looking confused for twenty minutes!

Any time a man says, “Men don’t like it when…”
Men don’t like it when women wear too much makeup. Men don’t like it when women are too loud with their friends at a bar. Men don’t like it when…SHUT UP I DON’T MAKE MY DECISIONS BASED ON WHAT MEN LIKE.

When a man wouldn’t let you sit alone
“A woman shouldn’t have to sit alone at a restaurant.” Did it ever occur to you that I wanted to enjoy the ambiance of a restaurant without having to make small talk with an imbecilic?

“You’re too pretty to…”
We don’t do anything because we believe we must to compensate for our appearance. I once had a guy tell me, “You’re too pretty to curse.” Damn. If I were just a little hotter, I wouldn’t have to speak at all, huh?

During your jog when that guy said, “You don’t need to lose weight.”
Or “You’re hot enough” or “You’re perfect as you are.” Did it ever occur to this dude that we care about, like our heart or our cholesterol? That our bodies are for something more than sex?
