I went to the library today like I usually do with a friend and we pulled up our seats on the 4th floor we wernt there for even 10 seconds finishing our conversation a lady next to us was very snappy and rude when she said to us there’s a child floor for being loud .. I said to the lady that we just got here and were just sitting down and asked her to mind her business and if she has anymore issues to talk to a librarian she replied with ” you won’t be sitting down here much longer after im done talking to them .”. to that I replied “take a hike” and she said very loudly ..” omg you just called me a dyke” so I get up and walk to tell a librarian because the situation has gotten out of control she follows me and cuts me off says to the librarians that I called her a dyke for no reason the librarians mouths dropped and said omg im so sorry she said that to you that is unacceptable I was so shocked that they didn’t even want to hear my side of things that I went back to my seat and called a superviser on my phone and explained what happened she said that she was sorry for what went on and she will talk to the staff so time goes on and security come over and tell my friend and I that if there is anymore issues that we will be asked to leave the library for a few days … I say ok cuz in not gonna fight with security I go downstairs to talk to the superviser and ask what happen 2 people that were sitting next to us when everything happened said that they herd the whole thing went down and herd me called her a dyke now all three people were more put together and all students that knew each other. And I am homeless pregnant and didn’t have my hair washed in 2 days so I must have been lying … I just feel like I was stereotyped and I don’t think t hats okay … I had no issue with this woman why in the world would I call her a dyke of all things bitc h would ve been my choice of word but then she proba ly would’ve said I called her a butch .. it’s just wrong to sterotype a person for what they look like and just automatically assume that a person who tried to cover her behind wouldn’t stoop as low as to use her orientation against someone else ..
