I felt weird talking to the lab guys about naked bike rides. It's weird just to be discussing that topic anyways, but eh.
By the way, I have no trouble lifting the sample boxes so I wish they'd stop offering to help even when I've turned them down. It's not like I'm displacing my uterus by lifting the dang boxes.
I also still feel weird when the supervisor refers to the other student and I as "LAAAADIEEEEESSS!" or "GIIIIRRLLLLLLS!" after being referred to by the gender-neutral "GUYS WE GOTTA DO WORK NOW". And one of the technicians was referred to as "the girl who does the xyz test".
When I was under eighteen I was never referred to as part of "GIIIIIIRLLLLLLLSSSSS". In fact that word was almost never used. The word reminds me of white people insensitively calling black people over 18 "BOY". | |
