Years ago I lived in a predominantly black neighborhood in a city and neighborhood that was and still is rapidly gentrifying. My parents hated that I lived there and insisted it was a bad neighborhood. My partner at the time also hated living there and her reasoning was that she was sick and tired of getting cat called every day walking to work as a white girl. I can't exactly comment on this a cis man.
The only negative interaction I had in two years of living there was a bunch of teens called me a fggt lol. I firmly told them that that was offensive and I'm their neighbor and don't appreciate being treated that way and they apologized. I often think about the families being pushed out of those neighborhoods by rising rents and young, white professionals moving in. I'm not entirely surprised that a group of young kids think that their only way they can shift the balance of power is to try to offend the people moving in. I can't blame them entirely.
youre a lot more mature than me, every time i get called a fg i say "i may like dick but i still get more pussy than you" amd i feel like that wouldnt have gone over well
Haha that's understandable. I think teens was an overstatement. I feel like the age range was like 7-12. And I don't think yelling at children would have been a good look for me.
