Today I committed a micro-aggression
September 26, 2016, 08:10:02 pm
Today I committed a micro-aggression. I commented on a female colleague's new hairdo. Micro-aggression? And if I had blatantly ignored it? Micro-aggression. Heads she wins, tails you lose. The terms change, the rules remain the same.

I also struck another female colleague on the head with a beerglass at Oktoberfest. That would have been a macro-aggresssion had it not been a genuine accident.

still, you're a comfortable distance away from casual serial killing

Every manslaughterer says this.

By this standard, I am the modern Atilla and you a mere Millwall supporter.

Sorry, was that too harsh?

Did you perchance opine: "Should have kept it as it was; looks shit, love"?

did you feel that being labeled a microagressor was a microinvalidation (of your opinions on women's hair)?

True. Both ladies survived the encounter with the unacceptable face of the Patriarchy

Being from the UK in Germany, doesn't that make you a minority group rather than the privileged hegemony?

Therefore a recipient rather than giver of micro-aggression?
