Cross-sectional harassment

January 30, 2016


I am at the library at Bunker Hill Community College, doing nothing except my homework.  For the past half-hour, I seem to have gotten harassed by a male student who is sitting behind me, and by a few other people.  I have ignored it.

A female student who is also an intern at On The Rise just walked past where I'm sitting and loudly snorted.  She has done that, and coughed near me, several times at On The Rise during the months that she has been an intern there.  I don't think that she knows what "feminism" is, and I have no idea why she chose to intern at a place whose reason for being is to be supportive of women.
