Ppl Suck - Tumblr Posts
i call jumin. i tell him that today i had a 70 yr old patient hit on me. i tell him he made inappropriate comments and stood between me and the door. i tell him how uncomfortable i was. how much i wanted to just go home after ward.
he’s there faster than anyone and he’s holding me. i can feel him shaking with anger as i cry into his chest. he tells the doctors at my office and because he is a man, because he is wealthy and smart and professional they listen and suddenly i am not required to do work ups not required to be alone in dark rooms with men who make me scared. men who tell me that a 44 year age gap is fine and that they have “experience”. i don’t have to try to ask them about their medication only for them to tell me that they’ve never needed “the little blue pill”
jumin stands up for me and that night he holds me rubbing my back and pressing chaste kisses to the top of my head. he lets me sleep in my warmest pajamas and doesn’t push me to do anything i’m not comfortable with. he gives me time and space and understanding. he doesn’t blame me or tell me he’s proud of me for NOT doing something bad to the man he doesn’t ask why i didn’t do more. he makes me feel safe again. he reminds me that my worth isn’t in the “services” i can provide. my value isn’t my gender and i don’t deserve that treatment.
