Though we live in a world which is slowly and hopefully moving towards women's liberation, there are certain things that women have been hearing for years now. And, honestly, nobody should be allowed to make these avowals to any woman. They leave us feeling self-conscious, uncomfortable, misjudged, demeaned and typecast. We’re sure you’ve heard a few of these:
- You seem moody, is it that time of the month?
- Don't be so sensitive.
- But, you should be flattered you receive that kind of attention.
- Why are you eating a salad? Why are you eating a burger? Are you on a diet?
- You don't have much time left to have children." “Isn’t your biological clock ticking?
- Do you need help with that?
- You curse/eat/drink a lot for a girl.
- Relax, it was just a joke.
- That wasn't sexism that was just [explanation].
- Are you sure you should do that alone?
- You're being too picky.
- Calm down!
- Don’t cut your hair so short, you look like a boy.
