I put my foot down yesterday . . .

During a fellowship time after church, a person I know started talking about recent sexual harassment allegations in the news and was rather critical of the women who have come forward. 

There are times I would have just nodded my head.  Not yesterday.  I told her that I didn't agree, I had some very strong feelings about this, and I didn't want to get into the discussion.  While I may have come off a little too strongly, it was just one time where I'd had enough of the subject.  And I put my foot down and said, I don't agree and I don't want to get into it.

Well done Alliematt.

Its not easy speaking out, you were spot on to stand against victim shaming.

Takes courage to say the right thing.

I put my foot down and said, I don't agree and I don't want to get into it.

Love, love love this!!!!

Well done Alliematt!
Fabulous assertion 

I would love to know how you are feeling in a couple of days time after.

For me, I think I would be going about my day with great ease, focus and with greater appreciation. No niggling thoughts or feelings about what I wish I was brave enough to have said.
