I'm so tired of being the one stepping aside for oncoming men on the street who don't even seem to acknowledge there's a person walking here. New rule: Time to just not. Let's see how many men get surprised and angry when they bump into me, because I didn't step aside for them.

Ok so apparently "manslamming" is a THING? I was aware that this was something lots of us dealt with, but I didn't realise JUST how prevalent it was! Women: Challenge for the week is to not step aside. Let me know how many times you get slammed into!

Yep, now I'm pissed. Today, in the 10 min walk btwn my flat & the metro I passed 6 older men & 4 women. The 2 first men, I forgot & moved aside. The next 2 I remembered but got awkward last minute & moved. The last 2 I got mad, braced myself - AND THEY BOTH BUMPED INTO ME!

Sometimes when I get really angry about this I just stop walking and stand still so they have to go around me. I'm so sick of being the one to step aside constantly.

On one hand, I should try this. On the other, I don't want to - since once again I'm the one having to adjust my behaviour because of theirs...

I am confused. In Malaysia, we naturally, move slightly move out each other's way. And keep walking. No walking straight into each other, unless your eyes are at your phone. This is common at your location?

I think decent manners would dictate that people do that everywhere. Im in Europe and it indeed happen too often.

As someone who always tries to move aside for people - this drives me insane when people just walk with no regard for other peoples paths. It causes me an unreasonable amount of annoyance tbh

Yup saaame! Can everyone just learn to be considerate of the space they take pls? (And this raises something that guys get mad about too when I talk about stuff like this: No, of course it's
#notallmen who do this, but when it does happen to me, it's overwhelmingly done by men.) - Pokaż odpowiedzi

Or is it just self centered thinking? Seems these days so many are focused on going forward they forget (or were sadly never taught) to be there for others. I see them taking shortcuts for success, belittling integrity, anything to move up. Maybe its a mix?

I’ve been doing this, but given way to POC. It can be a bit bruising.
