One of my biggest pet peeves. Every girl I know has been tossed into a body of water against her will. Every one of us has that same gasping for air story as a man dunked us and pulled us under. I have been tickled and held down in the water as a 14-year-old girl by a grown man who said things like: you're a good screamer. I was tossed into the pool countless times as a teen, hitting the sides or getting hurt in the process. I have always blown up at those men. They have always laughed it off, even after realizing they injured me. To those guys I say this: women don't like you. We have never been and will never be impressed by you, loser.

That's so horrible!!
It's crazy how careless and downright aggressive they can get. I'm so sorry this happened it you (and me, and all the women you know!)
