i belive that theres better place for you to share this matter, i mean, no one are really looking for trouble in steam gifts or would be able to do something about your situation
this is a real problem but you dont look for a mechanical in a hospital, this is just stupid.

It's a forum where people from all over the world and all walks of life meet and talk about what they like, as well as what they don't like, and many other things. How exactly is talking about something that we can all be better about "stupid"?
Comment has been collapsed.
For people that respect others theres no need for such a thing, may you please show me where i called specifically this topic stupid?
i may be dumb to have not noticed this direct offense, or somebody should have read classes.

" this is a real problem but you dont look for a mechanical in a hospital, this is just stupid."
Hmm... maybe you do need reading classes. And anger management support. Why so hostile, man? Like everything else anywhere else, don't like it, don't read it.
Peace

She's trying to educate people and bring awareness to an important situation. That is not "stupid."
People don't have to be "looking for trouble" in order to benefit from this information. It may not be relevant to their life today, but that doesn't mean it won't be relevant in the future.

She is trying to get attention to a subject thats have none to relate with this site, just that,
its important but nobody is talking about global warming
Comment has been collapsed.
The subject is related to Steamgifts as we are all humans and should care about it. If you strictly enforce that only related topics are allowed in forums, many would live in their own "information bubble" never coming in contact with subjects they are not interested in in the first place.
nobody is talking about global warmingPlease check your facts before posting:

This is your point of view, as Mully showed SG disagree with you, and i belive that the ones that created this site knows better about it than you.
and talk about global warming has nothing to do with SG too.
none has changed, have a nice day :)

Here, let me isolate it for you:
this is just stupid.
The category is called "Off-Topic." That means you can post about things that are -- wait for it -- not directly related to the site itself.
EDIT: of course now I see that Mully used the "General" category...
But still, any forum with an "Off-Topic" category allows and encourages threads that are not directly related to the site itself. That is the whole point of having that category.

look for a mechanical at the hospital, thats stupid
im not saying a thing about any thing else, so no direct offense
can you have sweet dreams now?

Good job bumping this post that you hate so much!
Maybe work on your attitude a little bit, though. Try to be a little more open-minded.
Comment has been collapsed.
The problem is real.
its just in the wrong place.
And dont say that i hate stuff, you dont even know me, so stop accusing people
and tks glad to help a good cause :)
i havent done any thing wrong, maybe you should listen to your advices

in the wrong place
Okay, whatever you say. You should talk to the site administrators, tell them to remove the "off-topic" category from the forums.
Good luck with everything!

this topic is at "General" , so i dont care about the "off topic", but thanks for caring
Good luck you too

LOL
So if it was under "Off Topic" would you stop complaining that it's in the wrong place?
Doubtful.

Man just stop being mean, ok? i did nothing to you for you keep moking me

Dude, there are threads here every day for people discussing random junk. There's one for Lyme Disease at the top of general right now. If you don't believe they should be "raising awareness" here, have you posted there to hassle them for it, too?
Think carefully about why you've chosen to single out this particular awareness thread for your comments.

Are we using the same site?
There are several instances of harassment and sexual comments made in this thread alone (one user was even perma-suspended for incessant harassment). There's one user on these forums who goes out of his way to constantly make sideways comments about the OP, and has called her a "cheap slut" and "red-headed whore" in the past - right here on these forums.
I hate to break it to you, brother - but gamers don't fall into the out-dated stereotypes anymore (if they ever really did) - they come in all flavors, shapes, and sizes - and not all of them are as nice as those stereotypes.
Lastly, this isn't just about the OP's situation, nor is she asking anyone to do anything about her situation. If you read through the thread, many other women have suffered harassment/street harassment (a few men have posted about it as well), in a wide variety of places - this thread is merely asking people to be more conscious of their behavior, and of the behavior of those around them.
I don't think that's too much to ask.

Good luck with that. I wonder how many hundreds of blacklists this thread has resulted in. I do agree with you.

Thanks for capitalising and your general respect for grammatical correctness.
Dave Chappelle told a story during his The Bird Revelation comedy show that might help some men empathise with the perpetual state of vigilance required by women in public:
Well, you ladies were right. Be honest with you, your lives look terrifying to me. They do. Man, I know nothing about being a woman, but I know fear. Yo, I used to live in New York when I was 17. I couldn’t even pay my bills. You know what I did to make money? I used to do shows for drug dealers that wanted to clean their money up. One time I did a real good set, and these motherfuckers called me in the back room. They gave me $25,000 in cash. I was probably 18, 19 years old. I was scared. I thanked them profusely, I put that money in my backpack, I jumped on the subway and started heading towards Brooklyn at one in the morning. Never been that terrified in my life. Because I’d never in my life had something that somebody else would want. I thought to myself, “Jesus Christ, if these motherfuckers knew how much money I had in this backpack, they’d kill me for it.” Then I thought, “Holy shit. What if I had a pussy on me all the time?” That’s what women are dealing with. I’m going to tell you right now. It’s real talk. If them same drug dealers gave me a pussy and said, “Put this in your backpack and take it to Brooklyn,” I’d be like, “Nigga, I can’t accept this.”

🌟 Giveaways (moved to top for convenient leeching 😁):
If you want to share giveaways, please use this template:
copy everything inside the ` (even the opening/closing `grave accents`), edit and and paste it in your reply
Please use the format provided above! It's easier for me to copy-paste multiple giveaways in this thread. 🐤
It will take me a few days to update the list. To avoid having your giveaway not "showcased" set its duration to more than 5 days (unless you don't care, it's up to you).
Because I'm tired of getting catcalled and watching others in the street receive the same treatment, I decided to share some information with everyone in SG hoping that they can stop doing it and/or talk to their friends to make them reconsider their behavior.
Street harassment is unwanted and unwelcomed public attention, most often directed at women, which is demeaning and damaging. It’s not a private matter but one that should concern everyone.
If you have trouble empathising with strangers, then think about your mother, sister, or girlfriend. Would you enjoy watching people catcalling and telling them nasty things? How do you think they would feel about it?
On an average day I go out twice and I get at least one guaranteed catcall. On weekends or when I go out, for example to a club, it gets worse because groups of people feel more empowered to do so.
A few months ago I was walking with a friend and one guy said things and started to follow us. After a while it ended with me turning around and pepper-spraying his face, then running away in case he could fight back. This is the kind of violence it generates.
We had a rough rest of the day and were shaken up. I didn't enjoy doing that at all, but he had to be stopped. I also like to think the guy didn't enjoy it either.
So in the end, what did he achieve? Nothing.
Edit
OK, I'm gonna clear this up since some people like to assume things just to blame me for defending myself.
For the backward people, this was in june when I wasn't wearing "provocative shorts and t-shirts" clothes. These are the "nice compliments" I got amongst others i don't even want to repeat here and/or I want to forget:
hey girl nice butt
does your friend wanna F with me too?
hey reply bitch
come here lesbos!
GONNA EAT YOUR ASS
Walked one block with that guy which was 1 meter away from us. He wasn't shouting from the other side of the street, he wasn't half a block away, he wasn't sitting in the sidewalk. He was right behind us.
He got warned to leave us alone during the whole 1-block fast-paced walk. I didn't stop to "discuss" because I'm not a 1.9 meters 120kg guy, so I'm not putting my friend and I at risk at 8:30pm in the street.
You read the "You're not alone" thread?
Well, most of the stuff that I shared about me is linked directly to an experience related to this, but I wasn't walking with a friend and there were two guys instead of one following me. You can guess what happened next since I wasn't able to defend myself.
But of course, street harassment is harmless and nothing else can go wrong, nor it can trigger unhappy memories from past experiences.
Think a bit before judging others so quickly assuming they overreact when they feel in danger.~
I know I probably won't convince anyone catcalling to stop by posting this (it doesn't hurt to try), but if your friends or co-workers do it, you can persuade or talk to them and see if they get it. There's nothing worse than being in a group of friends and allowing them to act like idiots.
It's disgusting and demeaning, stop it. You're hurting people with your actions and makes you look like a fool.
❤️️ FAQ, in case you're gonna post one of these comments I get all the time.
- But some women like to be catcalled!
Yes, there's also men that like to get hit in the face with a hammer. So using the same logic, I should go out and hit all men with a hammer in hopes they enjoy it?
- Don't be so sensitive, ignore it.
No, it reaches a point it can't be ignored. It's not an isolated issue once per month or in certain situations so you can avoid it. It also affects me a lot depending on my mood, so when you feel like crap and you get catcalled, things get worse.
- So you want others to come to your rescue when some stranger catcalls you? That will end up with me getting in a fight!
I'm not asking people to fight for me, just them to stop doing it, spread the word, and discourage people in their group of friends from being disrespectful.
- If you don't want to get catcalled, dress appropriately!
1: Don't blame the victim.
2: I dress as I please. It's my body, not someone else's.
3: It doesn't matter if it's winter and I'm wearing a jacket, or summer with shorts and a t-shirt. Some people will be idiots anyway and say things.
- I bet you like it when a handsome guy catcalls you!
Irrelevant. I expect respect from everyone.
- What about men? They also get harassed!
I'm very aware guys also get harassed by both men and women, but this thread is about girls. Feel free to create another thread for that issue, and I will support it.
- So this is just a misandrist rant!
It's not. If you feel targeted by anything I said, then it's not because you're a man, it's because you actions ressemble what it's said here.
- Meh, it could be worse.
It could be worse, but it SHOULD be better. Also, normalizing this behavior makes it even more painful for victims.
- Women also catcall!
I never said they don't, but for each woman that catcalls me, i get 500 guys. So the issue at hand is the one I shared.
- This thread offends me!
That tells a lot about you. Log off, take your time, and think about it.
- This thread is inappropriate for SG, please close and delete it!
Go tell that to all other threads about awareness, politics, religion, sports, disasters, etc.
