    Seriously. I’m 18 and just moved out this summer. The amount of people acting like creeps in public was insane at first. Now that I’ve been on testosterone for a while and started passing as male in public, it’s been happening significantly less often. (Not never, but much less frequent).

    I try to keep an eye out and be the helpful bystander in bad situations, and any advice on that would be appreciated. Stay safe out there, lemmings <3

      Honestly? Call the police and don’t get personally involved.

      People in the 21st century seem to have forgotten the damage one human being can do to another. With respect to your life choices, you still have the body of an 18 year old girl and pretty much any average male over the age of 16 would be able to overpower you without much effort.
