Group of teens harassed me because they thought I was giving them a dirty look
Ok so I’m 21 but I look much younger, I get mistaken for 15-16 on a daily basis. This makes me often a target of teenage boys approaching me in public and saying / doing weird and pervy things (this happen ALOT where I live.)
I was looking at Christmas lights in these fancy neighbourhoods with my sister just having family time, and there’s a group of teenagers standing in the middle of the pavement just blocking everyone’s view and knocking the decorations down.
Everyone was annoyed so we just walk around. I turn to look at them because I was trying to see what they were doing, so I squinted a bit.
Now, I have rbf so I absolutely look mean / intimidating even though that’s not how I’m feeling at all lol, I often get told that I’m unapproachable because I just have a very cold expression
Anyway I just squinted to see what they were doing, not aware of how I probably looked. One of the girls made eye contact with me and I just stared at her for a moment but didn’t really change my expression. I then heard her say “that blonde girl just gave us a dirty look”
They proceeded to follow me and my sister for a bit and we tried to lose them, and one of them comes up to me to tap me on the shoulder and say “happy holidays cunt” and walks away.
I just stood there like man… whyyyyyy I try my hardest to avoid attention from people in public ESPECIALLY teenagers because I swear to you it’s like I’m wearing a goddamn target on my forehead
I’m told I appear very neurotypical on the outside to people, the dead giveaway is my mannerisms and my weird stares so maybe that’s it???
WHAT is it about autistic females that are just targeted by groups of teenagers??? It baffles me.
