Bad situation at the gym(TW: sexual harassment)
Comment removed by moderator · 10 mo. ago
Safe space for anyone with borderline personality disorder. If you live with BPD/EUPD, or care about someone who has it, you're welcome here. Be kind to others to the best of your ability. This is is a nice place, help us keep it that way <3
So i’m a guy and i was on my phone and this random woman i’ve never seen before comes up to me and accuses me of taking photos of her (i have a girlfriend and i would never ever do this) I showed her my camera roll and everything and she was just like ok and walked away and didn’t even apologizing. I cried in the gym for like an hour and these massive bodybuilders were consoling me lol it only added to my bad times i just needed to vent i’m sorry.
You don't need to feel ashamed for having emotions. This isn't 1954. I'm glad to hear that the other men there were supportive, and I suspect all of them have been in, or fear being in, that situation.
But man, I'd be shudder-crying for an hour myself.
There were a couple girls consoling me as well lol. Do u think i should report it to the gym workers just so they have an eye on things? I almost never even had my phone out unless it was to track what i was doing, and it was pretty uncomfortable to do to such a young person
Just wanted to say this is wonderful. Men showing their emotions is beautiful and I’m glad it’s more accepted in society, as it should have been so long ago.
You should have demanded an apology. I hate it when people act like that. Fk em.
I was in shock. I am going to let workers know tomorrow about it
Definitely let the employees know about that. I am so sorry that happened to you, it's really triggering when you are getting berated for something you didn't do! I'm glad that there were people around that were helpful, also don't feel bad about crying/venting, you are human. that's what we do :)
Dude, that kind of thing would upset most men. Nobody likes being accused of being a creeper for a bullshit reason.
I’ve just never been in that situation. Idk how i’m going to go back without such anxiety lol
Did the bodybuilders consoling you help you or make it worse? Tbh if other people consoled me after something like that it would have alleviated my anxiety but only bc when I was abused people just watched me cry.
Oh i totally understand, i’m the same way. They made it a little bit better especially because one of them was a woman who was supporting me and it made me feel less of a horrible person even though i didn’t do anything. I’m not used to people consoling me so it was nice
You my friend got a dose of the modern female that thinks she's high and mighty full of doo doo

Folsom Street Fair San Francisco 2021 Official Website
Every gay with a pulse around the world is aware that San Francisco has long been a safe haven. As the liberal bastion of American society, San Francisco has long afforded most residents and visitors equal rights, even before such a concept existed. Imagine that – treating us gays and lesbians as the people we are! Well, it is time to pay homage to the great city of San Francisco by attending the world famous San Francisco Folsom Street Fair. And, what a party it is shaping up to be!
Billed as the largest gay leather festival in the world, the stage could not be set any brighter. On Sunday, September 25TH from 11:00am – 6:00pm, Folsom Street Events’ annual Folsom Street Fair presents one of the hottest three-way headliner line-ups ever. The nonprofit event producers will showcase some of the most stellar music from synth pop and electronic to indie and house. Folsom Street Fair presents a tour de force of live acts that will appeal to its queer audience, pairing alternative music with alternative sexualities. This year’s main stage headliners are electronic and indie dance dynamos: Dragonette, YACHT, and ADULT.
Let’s begin with a snipet about Dragonette to whet your appetite. It’s been nearly four years since Toronto-based leftfield popsters Dragonette put out a full-length album – an eternity in Pop years. Though they’ve hardly been idle in that time. The touring around the 2012 LP “Bodyparts,” coupled with their smash collaborations with French DJ Martin Solveig, saw them almost constantly continent-hopping, sometimes swinging from Paris to Manila in a single weekend. They did tours of the US with Major Lazer, Miike Snow and The Presets, played to a packed mid-day tent at Coachella, and graced festival stages on five continents.
After a bit of depressurization, the band collaborated with top-flight electronic music producers from across the planet, including Dutch producer Mike Mago, US beatmaster Big Data, and Swedish hit-makers Galantis. All this work with other people has provided fresh fuel for the Dragonette mothership. They’re currently putting the finishing touches on their as-yet-untitled fourth album, and “Let The Night Fall” and “Lonely Heart” are a first taste of that work.
Another headlining group this year will be Yacht. YACHT lives in and champions the city of Los Angeles, CA. YACHT’s core members are Jona Bechtolt (pronounced John-uh Beck-tolt) and Claire L. Evans. YACHT’s new album is called “I Thought the Future Would Be Cooler.” The album was produced by Jona Bechtolt & Rob Kieswetter. YACHT signed to Downtown Records in late 2014. YACHT’s last two critically acclaimed LPs (“Shangri-La,” “See Mystery Lights”) were released by seminal New York City label, DFA Records. Rob Kieswetter has been a close collaborator since YACHT’s inception.
YACHT have created and sold unplayable compact discs, published a philosophical handbook, designed a sunglasses collection, created a fragrance, campaigned against NSA surveillance, and given presentations about their work in art museums, tech conferences, and rock clubs. Claire and Jona are the co-founders of an app called 5 Every Day that suggests five interesting things to do in LA every day.
And then there is Adult. Detroit’s electro-punk phenomenon ADULT. (Nicola Kuperus and Adam Lee Miller) began their unpredictable path with one now totally obscure 12” (“Modern Romantics”). In 2001, with the release of “Resuscitation,” their first compilation album, ADULT. started playing more shows than ever as well as remixing artists.
After two more 12”s and their first limited edition 7”, ADULT. delivered their second album “Anxiety Always” in 2003. Following its release, ADULT. embarked on their first “proper” US and European tour. Successive releases such as “Gimmie Trouble,” “Why Bother?,” and “The Way Things Fall” have cemented the band as a formidable act with remarkable artistic output. Currently, the band is working on a new release, “Detroit House Guests,” with the likes of Shannon Funchess (Light Asylum) and Douglas McCarthy (Nitzer Ebb) – both Folsom Main Stage alumni.
In addition to the main stage, the fair features two dance areas: Magnitude Dance Area on 11TH Street between Folsom and Harrison and the DEVIANTS Dance District on Folsom at 13TH Street. These stages are named after the two popular Folsom parties that take place during the same weekend. Headlining the Magnitude Dance Area are circuit DJs Russ Rich, Josh Whittaker, and fan favorite Alex Acosta with a live performance by Vernessa Mitchell. Headlining the DEVIANTS Dance District is the SF Bay Area debut of Tuff City Kids, Roi Perez, and the return of BAAAHS in its ‘sheered’ form.
The Folsom Street Fair takes place in San Francisco’s South of Market district. Locals sometimes refer to this area as “SoMa”. Up Your Alley takes place on Folsom Street between 9TH Street and Juniper, on 10TH Street between Howard and Sheridan, and on Dore Street between Howard and the dead end of Dore just passed Powerhouse. Folsom Street Fair takes place on Folsom Street between 8TH and 13TH Streets this year. That’s right – after many years of producing the exact same fair footprint, we’re shaking things up a bit and shifting the fair over a block! We hope that this shift results in improved vehicle traffic around the fair (by opening up 8TH Street to live traffic) and reduced residential impact. As an added bonus, The Eagle will be on the fairgrounds!
The Folsom Street Fair is a free event! The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence and other gate volunteers will welcome you and ask you for a charitable donation, however, so consider your generous side as you attend. When you donate $10 or more, you will receive a fair sticker that will entitle you to $2 off of each drink you purchase from a Folsom Street Events (FSE) beverage booth. So, be generous – give ‘til it hurts, and please drink responsibly!
This year, the closing parties for both Up Your Alley (ROUGH) and Folsom Street Fair (DEVIANTS) will be at the same location: Mezzanine. The venue is located at 444 Jessie Street; this is a short, 10-15 minute walk from the fairgrounds. Exit on the Howard side of either fair, make your way to Mission Street and head east toward downtown (i.e. the numbered streets should be going down). Turn north (or left) off of Mission between 5TH and 6TH Streets.
If you are not native to San Francisco, there are several options for host hotels: From Kimpton Properties, The Sir Francis Drake on Union Square, and The Buchanan, located between Pacific Heights and Japantown. From Viceroy Hotels, The Hotel Zeppelin, in historic Nob Hill. Use promo code FSFLEATHER. Also, for the first time, we are partnering with KinkBNB – for those of you who are interested in renting a BDSM-friendly apartment during your stay in San Francisco.
So, enjoy the fair – this is one mega event you will definitely not want to miss!

This Equal Pay Day, let’s reexamine how we think about labor.

The Case For Direct Financial Redistribution
- Lauren Chief Elk, Give Your Money To Women co-founder
A weekly exploration of women and power.
Part of HuffPost Women. ©2022 BuzzFeed, Inc. All rights reserved.
In the three weeks since people across the United States have been relegated to self-isolation in the interest of public safety, many Americans are discovering, for the first time, that women do a lot of work. And that women’s work is really hard.
Teachers should be millionaires, as many people have tweeted out of homeschooling-inflicted exhaustion. Preschool and day care providers are worthy of sainthood. House cleaners make the world go round, and nurses are literally saving it. Strippers and sex workers ― how we miss them in this era of no contact. We miss restaurants, where we can get help feeding our families and ourselves.
Now, it’s clearer than ever how vital this work is ― and who, all this time, has kept the dust from collecting, the beds made, the food hot, the weddings planned, the graduation parties organized, and the pantry stocked.
By and large, it’s women. And it took a global pandemic to realize it.
The statistics speak for themselves. Most of the workers whose labor is now happening at home are women: More than 75% of teachers are women . A vast majority of house cleaners are women , and outside the formal housekeeping industry, women do most of the house cleaning anyway , without being paid to do so.
Many of the people on the front lines of the coronavirus response are women as well. More than 90% of nurses are women , and statistics show that the number of young female doctors is rapidly rising. There are twice as many female psychologists as there are male ones, and social workers are also predominantly women . As for elder care staff ― who are particularly essential during this pandemic, since people over 65 are at a heightened risk for contracting the virus ― 90% are women , too.
The economic ramifications of this pandemic are going to be devastating for a long time to come, and even in the effort to combat the economic losses via a comparatively paltry stimulus check, less traditional forms of work ― sex work, house work, emotional labor in a time of such chaos ― have been overlooked.
But with every collapse arises opportunity. After all of this, maybe there’s a chance to truly value the work that women do, and have always done, to keep everything from sinking.
The type of work that’s traditionally done by women has always been vital ― that just hasn’t been reflected in how it’s financially compensated.
“We assume that history is made by men and that what’s going on in women’s lives is just a sideshow: that men create prosperity and women simply benefit from it,” Professor Victoria Batemen wrote in her 2019 book “ The Sex Factor: How Women Made the West Rich .”
“Women’s freedom is all too often seen as a by-product of growth, rather than as an underlying driver,” Bateman said.
Mainstream U.S. politics ― if not the Republican Party ― has accepted that a policy response is needed to combat gender inequality. Traditional measures would include strengthening teachers and nurses unions and passing the Paycheck Fairness Act . Sens. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) and Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) have sought to amend the pay gap for women of color in particular, and detailed plans to do so when they ran for president.
“We assume that history is made by men and that what’s going on in women’s lives is just a sideshow: that men create prosperity and women simply benefit from it.”
But more grassroots, radical approaches are also circulating ― and might find eager proponents amid the worst health and economic crisis in a generation.
Five years ago, Lauren Chief Elk, Bardot Smith and Yeoshin Lourdes started one of those movements: the Give Your Money To Women (or #GYMTW) campaign, centered on men paying women directly for their labor, mainly through apps like Venmo, Cash App or PayPal.
To the founders of that movement, the coronavirus pandemic is proving what they have been saying for years: Feminized labor ― both outside of traditional workforces and on top of them ― needs to be compensated as well.
“I think we’re definitely seeing what ‘essential’ work in a society is, and it’s all coming back to various forms of care work,” Chief Elk said on Monday. “Whether it’s in a formal workplace or now what’s at home, as home is ground zero for everybody right now.”
“The people who have to still work their ‘real’ jobs at home, especially women, are now also schoolteachers, and the workload of cleaning and washing clothes and cooking is exponentially higher. We’re really seeing what’s still keeping people and society going, what is necessary ― it all comes back to feminized, unseen labor,” Chief Elk said.
And most workers in these women-dominated industries have historically been wildly underpaid .
“I think this highlights the fact that in our economy, feminized labor has been excluded from our modern economy,” Smith said.
To close the gender gap, society has to recognize unpaid care provided mostly by women ― and pay more for it, Bateman writes.
When women have “an unfair burden of responsibility in the home, it feeds through to create inequalities in the marketplace … by affecting women’s ability to engage in paid work and … through the way in which society undervalues the types of jobs associated with being female.”
When Smith, Chief Elk and Lourdes started Give Your Money To Women five years ago, feminists argued that it gave “feminism a bad name.”
Now that we’re all a part of a global crisis, Smith says, the tides have changed.
“Before there was a crisis, people had opinions about it ― that we were selfish, lazy, getting money for nothing,” she said. “But now everyone is in the same boat, and handing people actual money makes the most sense.”
The campaign was started by sex workers who wanted to ensure that women were compensated for all of the unseen labor they did. It spread beyond sex workers as other women started using financial technology and sites like GoFundMe to solicit payments or donations.
Now, sex workers are often unable to collect on direct payments, since they’re barred from platforms like Cash App and Venmo while others benefit from the campaign they started.
Part of why Smith and Chief Elk take their campaign so seriously is because giving money to women is arguably the most surefire way to help women escape violent situations. And in times of great economic uncertainty and rising unemployment ― especially when women are housebound ― violence in the home skyrockets . As shelter-in-place orders are announced across the country, victim services and nonprofit support are scarce.
“This goes back to how much women need cash,” Chief Elk said. “These supposed safety nets just can’t be there and cannot be reliable. But what would be reliable is if women had money for gas, and gift cards for hotels and groceries.”
“I think we’re definitely seeing what ‘essential’ work in a society is, and it’s all coming back to various forms of care work.”
Bateman echoed this, telling HuffPost over email that both violence and unexpected pregnancies can have dire effects on women’s financial security.
“So much longer-term financial disadvantage has its roots within what goes on in the home, and so the more time we’re spending at home, the more that will take its toll on women’s future,” she said. “And that’s why women who are already the most vulnerable will be the ones who suffer the most.”
Bateman trusts that the economy can recover ― but only if women are given the freedoms and rights they need to prosper.
Those freedoms and rights include higher pay for care workers and workers in other feminized industries, as well as access to affordable birth control and abortion procedures ― something many right-wing legislators are eagerly chipping away against , and using COVID-19 to do so.
But Bateman also highlights women’s freedom to choose how they make their money, including by doing sex work.
“The emphasis of policy should be on opening up options for women, not closing them down, such as by making access to birth control more difficult … or criminalizing the buying (or selling) of sex,” she wrote.
But when policymakers can’t or won’t step in to ensure financial security and bodily autonomy for women, there is still the power of cold, hard cash.
“A lot of things right now are pointing toward what women really need,” Chief Elk said. “Which is cash in hand.”
