Sure, it may be true but I believe that comment has caused more drama.
I guess I asked for unnecessary comments by having a picture of myself as my avatar, but the good (hard to believe right
) part of the inappropriate comments I've received are the numerous amount of friends I've had defending me along the way.
A while back I had a picture of myself as my avatar. At that time, I never once received any type of harassment. Changed my avatar to a pug *yay* and eventually came around to changing a picture of myself as my avatar (current avatar). I have never received hate comments before like I have this time. Two incidents in particular, plus the one mentioned on this thread. I was defended like I said, but the sting was still there. I think the whole, " I'm a girl on the internet.." is to blame.
I'm not sure that people understand that whether the comments intent was to "prove a point" or to come across as a "compliment" you have to go about it in a better way. Being blunt on the internet, especially when it comes to girls never ends well.
I know you all are probably reading this and aren't taking me seriously because I'm causing the drama myself by having a picture of me as my avatar. But the thing is, you are only making yourself look bad by commenting on someones profile saying inappropriate things. I shouldn't be embarrassed by having a picture of myself as my avatar, and I'm not anymore because I've been defended through-out this whole ordeal.
This needs to stop. Sure, you may see it as a joke, but until you go through the situation yourself and know what it feels like to be mistreated and made fun of, you shouldn't say a thing. People don't take this seriously, and that's the worst part. Because even as well said as this thread was, people are still making jokes..it never ends apparently
