A Married Man Tried To Make A Move On Me... This is my #MeToo Story
I am sick.
I am sick and tired of being treated like a conquest a man can claim, or a challenge a man can win.
I am sick and tired of men treating me like an object that has solely been invented for their entertainment.
Just because I’m single doesn’t mean I’m fair game;
Just because I am single doesn’t mean I am desperate enough to give in to the flirtations / sexual advances of married men.
There is not a dimension or a parallel universe or any time nor place where I will be a home wrecker.
I am not just a v*gina walking with two legs.
I am not someone you talk to because you needed a laugh or someone you invite over to try your tricks on — expecting, hoping I would put out.
I was not put in this world to smile for you, or to make you feel good about yourself.
I am a person.
With feelings, with a sense of self worth.
I am someone loved, and respected, and deeply cared for by family, by friends.
I may not have a boyfriend but that doesn’t mean I will jump into bed with the first person who shows interest in me;
I may not have a man in my life right now but that does not give you the right to think that I will be easy;
to think so lowly of me and to try and assault me, and make me squirm with discomfort.
I am sick. And utterly insulted. And completely disappointed. And feeling hopeless.
Luckily, I am also strong, and resilient, and not afraid to call you out on your rude, disgusting behavior.
I am a woman.
I am someone who’s had enough.
You tell 'em right girl. The problem with us Filipinas chooses to stay silent instead of fighting back. Not because they are afraid but just to avoid a scandal.

Beautiful words to describe an awful feeling. Authentic, raw and full of emotions.
Know that a lot more people are getting woke and understand that it is not OK to objectify people because both men and women can be treated like that.
That it is not OK to make another person like a sex toy and make them feel dirty.
Society has now made it that it is not OK to be predatory in unwanted sexual advances.
Keep your head high and know your worth. You deserve happiness.
I appreciate your sincere words. Thank you!

What a disgusting misbehaving man! If he´s tried it on you, be sure he had tried it to other women. I know you to be a jolly and very friendly person. Be alert , careful and be strong always. :-))
