“Why don’t women just reject men outright??” hotd edition source

he's not funny, but I am!

I work as a hostess for a henna company. It's a really busy and fun job, and I always have a crowd of people around my desk looking at henna art. Though once in a while the creepy "funny" guy shows up.

This time it was a couple, late 50thies early 60thies I guess. She wanted intricate henna on her hands and fingers, looked trough our books for examples, asked for prices and I helped her out.

My artists are really skilled and experienced and makes amazing small details.

Insert classic interruption of women doing business by obnoxious husband:

"How much for drawing cock and balls on my cock and balls?"

I did not miss a beat, looked him in the eyes and said with a serious face:

"We can't do that, we need a bigger surface."

Then turned back to his wife to continue our talk.

She cackled! And when he stood there, deadfaced starring at us, she EXPLAINS THE JOKE TO HIM! In front of my crowd of people.

He never cracks a smile. She buys the most expensive henna piece she could get, and was still laughing when I put her in line to match with an artist.

The husband? He gave me the stink eye (which I ignored, I have a job to do) then vanished into the crowd.

Bonus: when I told my boss, he cackled too.

Edit:

I did not think my little workstory would get this kind of attention. My mom called and I get back here seeing a ton of comments and even awards! Thank you guys!

I told mom my story too, she is very proud of me, lol!

Though... The real hero is the wife!

I've shut down men like him more times than I can count, but never have I had a wife back me up like that!

Thank you, lady who loves henna art. You made the day for a lot of people <3

Friendly reminder to not have sex with conservative men.

Just making sure we're still on the same page here. You can't change him with the power of love. You can't win him over with thoughtful debate. He's not an alright guy when you put aside the political stuff. Remember that libertarian men are often just conservatives who like weed.

"I hope my view on abortion didn't change our friendship"

Yes, yes it did. Being against my human rights definitely did. I hate that people honestly think that relationships don't change from politics. Had a close male friend who honestly thinks we are still BFF's, no I'm sorry if I can't tell you I've been raped and need an abortion (or hell not even raped) you aren't a best friend.

Do I care about him and talk to him? Yes but there is a distance? Absolutely and you don't get to victimize yourself for your shitty political views.

Best analogy for a patriarchal society I have seen source

They don't even care that this woman has a better life now, escaped an abusive situation. If she's no longer "hot and feminine" she is worthless to their eyes. She lost bc all there is to a woman is being attractive right. The shallowness of conservative men is insane. source
