I Am Not Your Teachable Moment

Originally published on Robot Hugs and cross-posted here with their permission.

Have you ever been treated as a teachable moment, a feel-good story, or a well of information – when you’re just trying to get home?

This comic shows what it’s like to get intrusive, unsolicited opinions and questions about your identity.

It’s a helpful reminder that you don’t have to deal with being objectified, and a valuable lesson on how not to approach strangers.

With Love,
The Editors at Everyday Feminism
