What's the worst side of being a boy?

Probably the downplay of sexual assault, I was groped by a girl and I felt it was a normal thing and didn’t think anything of it. This isn’t supposed to be a sob story because I’m not sad, it’s something that is so normalised in society that it didn’t feel abnormal when it happened and it doesn’t feel abnormal now, so I didn’t get uncomfortable or upset, nor am I uncomfortable or upset today. even when I know it’s wrong. The fact of the matter is even if I was upset instead of getting support I would revive negativity.

“Dude your a boy why would you be upset, a girl just touched you!”

Or “dude why are you upset a girl touched you?, are you gay?”

This is the reaction guys get if they would speak out about stuff like this that happens to them
