Quotes by Claire Swinarski (?)

“Who was I supposed to tell? What was I supposed to say? That kind of stuff -- it happens all the time." It did. A million and one times. Comments on butts, jokes about bra straps. ... These things were just folded into our everyday lives, part of walking and breathing and doing math homework and eating lunch. Boys taking, and girls laughing. Having to pretend to be on your phone as you walked home in the dark,”
― Claire Swinarski, What Happened to Rachel Riley?

“This is the part they leave out, in focused attempts at justice: that you will occasionally want to push it all aside and curl up for one big nap instead.”
― Claire Swinarski, What Happened to Rachel Riley?

“But why is it on the girls? Why is it just expected that we'll be the ones to say something and get all mad? Why can't we just depend on boys to not slap butts and snap bra straps?!”
― Claire Swinarski, What Happened to Rachel Riley?
