And if you're a woman or girl, you likely have already been victimized in some way or are vulnerable to criminal predators-at home, in the workplace and even in public areas.Women and girls are generally raised to be nice to everyone. They're taught to avoid being rude at all cost. To smile through awkward situations. To giggle when they feel uncomfortable rather than risk embarrassing someone who is just "playing" with them. To expect men to be their rescuers if they're in danger. How many times in your life have you ignored the blaring sirens from your intuition when someone was violating your boundaries? Or worried as the creepy guy from your dorm followed you to class? Or suffered through regular sexual harassment at work? It's a strange paradox-we spend so much of our lives being hyper-vigilant about potential danger, but become utterly helpless when we're confronted with uncomfortable and even dangerous situations. We smile when someone pays us an inappropriate compliment at work. We roll our eyes when a man makes a crude joke or gesture. We stiffen but don't necessarily move when someone brushes up against us.Making "Nice" is Hurting YouWhy? Why do we "make nice" when we're treated with disrespect? Our instincts are correct, but we override them because our early training was so strong. Part of the reason is fear-that the situation will escalate if we object, that we'll embarrass the other person or ourselves, or that the person we confront won't like/love/employ us anymore. We're also often clueless about how to respond. Then there's the pervasive, personally-held belief that we can't take care of ourselves, so we demure rather than react. We feel helpless, which leads to a sense of hopelessness and powerlessness. Denial is also a huge factor; we deny what's happening to us in favor of making excuses for the perpetrator: "He was just kidding." "I'm just being overly sensitive." "He didn't mean it." Or the ever popular, "Boys will be boys." This unfortunate perspective lets predators off the hook when they behave badly.It's Time to Take Your Power Back!If you're tired of feeling afraid, of loathing and blaming yourself, of feeling too vulnerable, then take YOUR power back right now. Yes, right this very second! Recognize that you're a powerful being and claim it! It's time for you to get indignant!
