What they tell us
Be nice.
Be polite.
Be demure.
Be obedient.
Be compliant.
Don’t make a fuss.
Forgive and forget.
That’s just the way things are.
Make the best of it.
Don’t talk about it.
Grin and bare it.
Laugh it off.
Let it go.
Deal with it.
Shut up!

Why were you dressed like that?
What were you doing there?
