I’m a G—Don’t Mess with Me or Mine!

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Virginia Tech chapter.

My boyfriend works as a bouncer at a local bar. The other night he came home with a lovely little
story about a girl who offered him the opportunity of copping a feel of her 32D boobs. Why did she feel the need to offer that information or opportunity to a bouncer she’d never met before, I don’t know. Well I do know. He took her fake I.D. and was hassling her about trying to get into bars underage. Why that merited a boob squeeze—I don’t know. Well I actually know that too. She thought that maybe by letting him feel her up (in public) it would be payment enough for getting her fake I.D. back. According to him he declined her offer, and retorted with, “My girlfriend is a 32G.” To which she said “32D is bigger”. Uhm, no it’s not betch, you’re retarded, and I hate you.
 
The reason why I’m writing about this little vignette into my everyday rollercoaster of a life is that it’s actually incredibly concerning. Why do women feel the need to offer their bodies as payment for what in reality is an incredibly trivial nothing of a thing? Having a fake I.D. is illegal. Do college students have them? Of course. Is it necessary to ask a stranger to feel your ta-tas as a way to get one back? Hell no. SERIOUSLY? I feel like I should never even have to say that out loud, let alone write it in a blog. Unfortunately, many college women still have very little respect for themselves, and their bodies. It makes me really sad to hear that a girl would be so quick to resort to a form of minor prostitution (a strong word, but I’m sticking with it) for such an inconsequential event. Have you not heard any statistics of the commonality of rape or sexual harassment in American society? Last time I checked—1 in 4 women would be raped or experience attempted rape. Why would you up your chances by offering your body to a COMPLETE stranger over entrance to a bar on a Thursday night? Not only that, you know nothing about the man you’re talking to. Luckily for me, I date someone trustworthy, but if that was your boyfriend you would not want girls offering squeezes over nothing. Maybe that’s just me though.
 
To make matters worse, this girl then proceeded to facilitate herself to a severely crippled man, also a stranger, and get him to pay her cover charge (the bar he works at allows 18+). Not only did she not learn a lesson, she showed herself truly to be the scum of the earth. Girls like that need a wake-up call, and need help. Please, please, please don’t be ‘that girl’. But more importantly girls, be respectful of those around you, but mostly be respectful of yourself! Y.O.L.O., don’t be the 1 in 4!
