Hi , so today I decided to tell my friends that I want to join boxing , I want to be a police woman when I'm older and then they bursted out laughing , like a bunch of drunk hyenas . I mean they laughed so hard everyone around was looking with confusion. I was going to say something like "don't judge a book by its cover" but I can tell why they judged me . I'm a little bit skinnier and smaller than the average middle school girl ,even though I eat like there's no tomorrow and come out with no weight gained because of my high metabolism . No matter how hard I try to gain weight I can't. I only have a little bit of muscle but its enought to be noticeable. I work out every day so that's why. But I guess my question is, Why is it so hard to believe that I can box? Why did they have to laugh so loud ? Why were they so incredibly rude? I would never do that to my friends , ever . Even if I wanted to be completely honest with them I would have said something , kinder I guess. Why do they underestimate me so much? I want to show them what I'm made of but I'm afraid they'll just laugh again, I will care but I will take it lesser this time . Any advice?
People are rude to police officers, they think they do nothing, but eat donuts and beat people up. This is NOT true! Law enforcement officers do so much, we need them. Girls doing "man" things like boxing and police work, get bashed on more. And it sucks! Don't listen to their crap, please ignore them. If you are really worried about it you can show them you can box well or just drop the subject and pretend you aren't boxing on your own time. Good luck!!! If you need more advice I'd be glad to help, Im currently in the process of joining law enforcement and hope to be a LEO (Cop) one day. Girls have equal rights, but still can be treated differently.
