Archives don't really work on Insta, but here's the pic: https://archive.ph/EQKEY
A man just stopped me to ask if I’m a car mechanic. My first thought was “oh no does he need jumper cables?”. Then I realized it’s because I’m wearing my coveralls. I said, “No, these are my eatin’ pants, can’t fit in my skinny jeans no more”. He laughs without detecting any sarcasm. I’m pretty sure this is the same guy that wants you to name three songs of the band shirt you’re wearing, from the concert you went to, but as a girl you clearly couldn’t have loved. Just another day being a woman justifying your existence. #mansplaining #nofilter
So in other words she was dressed in coveralls, a guy made a joke based on that then laughed at her joke reply. Then ???, proving he clearly is a horrible sexist.
Dang just live with the consequences of what you wear. My boss literally wears coveralls to work sometimes and has been mistaken in similar ways. It isn't a gender thing that is in your head.
In fact I would be 200x less likely to assume a girl wearing coveralls is a mechanic vs a guy wearing coveralls. I would must more likely assume it was a guy.
This goes back to half the times I have heard girls complain about the "great sexist evil things" people have said to them on the internet. I hear their WORST examples, and then I think..."oh , yeah been called that one about 200 times since I was like 12. and also 700 things worse every freakin' day on the internet as a guy."
I am not saying it is ok still to do that, but dude that is the internet and most dudes who have interacted heavily on it for years have been called the worst things most of their life on a daily basis, but then these woke girls get on there and someone says one little mean thing and they act as the internet simply only hates them. Sorry girl, the internet hates everybody all the time constantly :P
