What’s the weirdest thing that you’ve been sexualized for?
42 comments
Cleaning a toilet.
maybe not weird to everyone but my thighs
My calves because I used to be overweight!
I was sexualised for being a female child, that was pretty weird.
My voice. I was just talking normally and a guy said it turned him on and started making it weird. I didn’t even know how to respond.
Hair on the back of my neck…
Wearing glasses and whispering to a guy to keep his voice down, immediately turned to me and said I was like a “hot librarian” and asked me to keep whispering to him
reading out loud
Having a pet lizard!
“You must love other exotic things, huh?” said to be by the LEAST exotic person I have ever seen IN MY LIFE
My eyes. As a 16 year old girl. 🥲
Being helpless and exposed during seizures
For existing as a short skinny woman with a big (for my frame) bust. Some guys are weird about it.

My long hair. I have hair nearly to my butt, and I only recently had a dude tell me he saw my hair and got “rock hard”. 🫠 I’m 31 years old, and never even heard of a long hair fetish.
I was an adult, but I was sexualised for looking young.
So many pdfs

I work in a semiconductor facility and wear a bunny suit (cleanroom suit) working in the fab. Not even 3 months into my apprenticeship, I had a guy sexualizing me despite being in a suit that literally covers everything but your eyes and nose.
Stretching (arms up over head). I was 12yo.
Applying gloss 😬

My innocence and inexperience as a teenager… by adult men.

Freckles on my shoulders
My hair and legs.
• liking Star Trek
• being good a pool
• being strong
• being a nice mum (particular ew)
• drinking beer
The bar is so low sometimes.
My clavicles 😆
Being a child
Simply existing between the ages of 13-17, all by men 25+.
Such an awful time too, because you’re at an age where you’re hyper aware of your body and uncomfortable with the changes, all while being made deeply insecure by the *media
*shoutout to all my fellow millennials girls who survived the horrifying way we glorified thinness over everything in the 00s
self harm scars. 😐
Playing the trumpet! You guessed it – as a child.
For crying. wtf.
Doing chores around the house while a preteen. Glad mom divorced the bastard.
My Essex accent lol
Walking down the street as a 10 year old wearing skort. I didn’t know whatever they said meant, just that I was uncomfortable
Wearing scrubs…probably have human waste on me, but sure. Tell me how sexy scrubs are.
Doing my weekly grocery run on a Wednesday morning. A stranger came over and asked me how much? I said what? To do it in the packing lot? It was 11 in the morning. I had long shorts and tshirt on. Not even club wear. In my early 40s, and screamed at him when I realized what he asked. He ran away. I reported him to management. I was shaking the rest of the day. I am a DV survivor and veteran with cptsd. This was before grocery delivery services.
I always thought the Asian fetish is super weird. My Latina friends get a different version of the same thing.
Sexualizing a person just because of stereotypes about her race feels very dehumanizing.
Oh, and back when I was living with a Lesbian roommate, I remember one dude telling me that he wanted to come visit because he had a porn video fantasy, watching my roommate and I together. I’m not even gay, we were literally *just* roommates without anything sexual going on.
My butt. Starting at the age of 12. By grown men
Snacking on dill pickles from the jar. I was 10. He was my teenaged step brother. He was so persistent and aggressive about it that I would hide behind or under furniture to eat them. Still don’t feel comfortable eating anything around men.
By my mom, aunt, and grandma for walking into the kitchen one morning wearing my pjs where my uncle was visiting with them. They just, all three at the same time, turned and glared at me while my mom told me to go get my robe—was never an issue before, but, looking back, I was reaching puberty.
