Jameela Jamil, who plays Tahani Al-Jamil on The Good Place, took to Twitter on Sunday, March 24th, to tell a disheartening story about a not-so-rare encounter she had with a man who wanted to date her.
Unfortunately, countless women sounded off in her replies, telling stories of eerily similar experiences they'd had with other men who refused to simply take "no" for an answer.
The stories all seemed to put on display the incredible fragility of the male ego.
The lengths many women have to go to feel safe is ridiculous. In a perfect world, strategies like these would be unnecessary.
The women's male friends would often help them out, but that should never have been necessary.
Men, get your act together ASAP! None of this is acceptable.
Teaching boys about rejection should start at a very early age.
It's time these men's behavior becomes unacceptable in civilized society.
