GUESTLIST 2017 / ISSUE 102 11 I wore a cropped boob tube and a pair of jeans. I've been to Spoons before wearing similar or maybe even less clothes plenty of times and never had a problem before. By the time I was at the bar ordering a drink I'd already had two men come up to me, words slurring, and remarking on how 'little' I am. Unfortunately, all women are used to men making unwanted remarks as sadly it's part of the parcel of being female. When I got back to my table, only a few sips into my pint, a waitress came up to me and asked if I had a jacket or something I could put on to cover myself up. I asked her what she meant, shocked, and she said I needed to cover myself up because I was "causing a stir." I stared at her, gobsmacked, all I could say was "Why?" I wish I'd have said something more but I was truly in a state of shock. She stood there until I picked my jacket up off the table. I held it up to me but didn't put it on. A minute or two later a male manager came up to me to discuss the same issue. He went on to tell me I was half naked, causing looks and complaints and that he was just "trying to prevent something happening." After the half naked comment, I asked him if had he never seen a girl in a crop top before and he told me "not in a pub with men in it at 9 pm." Just because my stomach and shoulders are exposed, does it make it my fault that I'm getting unwanted male attention? The only people responsible for the way that men act towards women are the men doing it themselves, regardless of the way a woman may be dressed. WETHERSPOONS CUSTOMERS OUT OF CONTROL BUT I AM TOLD TO COVER UP! YOUR SURVIVAL GUIDE TO LIFE FOLLOW @GUESTLISTDOTNET This Saturday night I decided to go for a drink with a friend in our local Wetherspoons, this being virtually the only pub we drink in, as we are young and broke. A new study has shown that consuming a moderate amount of fat can reduce the risk of premature death. 135,000 people were involved in this research from across the globe. This research showed that about 35 percent per cent of daily calorie intake was linked to a decrease in early risk of death, than that of a lower fat consumer. Dietary fats such as saturated, polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats were not linked to cardiovascular diseases or heart attacks. But diets high in carbohydrates were associated with higher mortality rates. The study overall proved that avoiding high- carb diets and eating a balanced amount of fat, fruits, and veg could lower the risk of early death. SCIENTISTS PROVE FATTY FOODS ARE GOOD FOR YOU 1. Bring an extroverted sidekick Come with a friend who understands your quirks, let them do all the talking and introductions. While your ally can conjure up a conversation all you have to do is sit back and relax, and if you feel like adding your two pence then go for it. You might find yourself enjoying it more than you think. 2. Act interested So when someone keeps blabbing on about their third hernia op, then it's a good time to ask a lot of questions. Occasional laughter and head nods are also good ways to throw them off the scent of uninterested wandering eyes (and if caught Glaucoma is also a good excuse for the eye rolling). 3. Time outs are essential Schedule breaks. Excuse yourself, head upstairs and find a quiet place to regain energy. But if you don't feel like going back down to the chaos then fake a blackout assuming that the place you fall flat on your face is a comfortable bed or sofa. 4. Have an exit plan An exit plan is an introvert's kindest gift to themselves. Here are some excuses that can be put forward as a means of escape. Family emergency, a fake health issue or just get your friend blind drunk.
