First Signs of Hate

On Sunday we ordered pizza from Pizza Hut.  I went to go pick it up.  Not wanting to change to head out, I was wearing my teal tank top, woman shorts, and flip flops that showed off my painted toes.  As I pulled in the parking lot, I noticed a group of young guys just hanging out outside of the Pizza Hut.  As I pulled into a parking spot, I started to get a bad feeling and started getting really nervous.  I got the nerve to get out of the car, but the bad feeling was correct.  For the first time I was harassed for what I was wearing.  I tried to ignore them as I walked passed them into Pizza Hut.  They were saying stuff like "Fag" and "Gay".  I was so nervous I couldn't make out all they were saying.  Why did they have to do that?  I didn't do anything to them.  This is the first time I have been harassed for what I've been wearing.  Luckily they were gone as I was leaving Pizza Hut.  It put me in a slight funk the rest of the evening.  Ugh.
