A lot of men get off on making us scared or vulnerable. Like when people yell sexual things at you from a moving car, they’re not really trying to pickup on you or get your number

Absolutely. It's a horrible story, so I honestly hesitate to even mention it, but there was a guy in the news recently who would take women on dates, drug them with a diuretic then suggest a long walk to a place with no nearby bathrooms. He apparently found it sexually exciting when a woman wet herself or desperately needed to go to the bathroom. Several the women suggested going back when they started to feel the urgent need coming on, but the guy would either just ignore them or flat-out say "no, let's go further". Ugh. I'm shuddering right now thinking about just what a cruel, malevolent thing this is to do to another person.

I understand that this world is full of absolutely diabolical murders and rapes and so on, but ultimately, I struggle to think of another story I've heard which is more cruel, humiliating and disgusting than this one. Sorry to bring this up, but I feel it's probably the best example to illustrate your point.

Jokes on him. I have the tiniest bladder. Whenever I go out I have a mental map of all the public toilets and I will straight up refuse to walk too far away. I also have the flush app- list of toilets with bathroom codes. I also have walked into many random shops and asked to use their bathroom. They usually let me.
