“My grandmother of blessed memory would have spit and said ”Feh!”(an expression of utter disgust)”
Ditto for my grandmother and my mother and undoubtedly their mothers before them going back and back and back.
For the record, their spits were accompanied by sound and mightily disgusted faces.
The grandmothers were correct.
There is no reason why you and I and the hundreds of millions of others who consider this immoral predatory behavior to not do the same as our grandmothers, our Nanas, our Bubbies.
Strong reactions are called for, the sake of society - FOR THE SAKE OF THE CHILDREN.
Faces of disgust are a start. Peaceful civic actions are urgently needed.
Given that there are no words, will the the New York Time editorial board declare the micro demonstration of disgust to be “micro-aggression”? “faux spit”?
