I think if i got homophobic abuse from a woman I could take it bc I’d just turn round and say her hair and contouring was ****, or smn like that, but don’t think that’s gonna work on a man

Thinking about work, there’s only one guy whose given me an issue or made comments that have been sly digs and I guess that’s just what I expect from every guy
