I'm a female programmer, so I imagine I'm dealing with some of the same crap. I get some when I go running outside, which is why I tend to stick to my treadmill. :(Pixel Pixiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17464601854437518024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1404513230073818801.post-101269779954875622013-02-03T10:34:57.633-05:002013-02-03T10:34:57.633-05:00Oooh, good response, Tante!

Perhaps they've list their mojo and ordering people to smile makes them feel more powerful. I am one of the few female mountain bikers around here and those old men hikers making the stupidest comments about it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08212430039755428748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1404513230073818801.post-26299162197299403572013-02-03T10:33:14.083-05:002013-02-03T10:33:14.083-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08212430039755428748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1404513230073818801.post-57190388057433472042013-01-25T08:52:57.556-05:002013-01-25T08:52:57.556-05:00Ooooh, baring my teeth sounds good.

I've been told my neutral face looks angry, more than anything, but I guess that could be interpreted as sadness. I still don't understand why random people care so much about whether or not I'm smiling.<br /><br />Maybe I'll say "I'll smile when I don't have to deal with jerks like you!"Pixel Pixiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17464601854437518024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1404513230073818801.post-79763918775657039262013-01-24T08:12:23.656-05:002013-01-24T08:12:23.656-05:00I get it all the time.
