The Feminist's Guide To A Wild Night Out

So, the hipster in the leather jacket wants to buy you a drink. You have two choices: you can remind him that you are a strong independent woman capable of buying your own drinks and don't indulge the chivalrous remains of the societal oppression, or you can take the drink and remember that accepting a beverage does not obligate you to sleep with him, or kiss him, or even talk to him. If some asshole won't stop talking to you, even though you're obviously not interested, you can tell him directly to fuck off or you can slip out for a cigarette/off to the restroom/"sorry my mom just called" and never come back. Just remember to consider what you want regardless of social pressures and make sure you're not pushing any of your friends into uncomfortable situations.
