Milly,
what you did is okay. Don't worry about what the rest of the class thought. You did what you needed to do to keep that image from hurting you, I think, and you did the right thing.You simply protected yourself and I'm glad you did it.
Personally, I would have felt worse if you had let that offensive offensive man's image stay in your prescence in order to not have the others think you were weird or something.
You had every right to INSIST that it be removed from your sight and you stood up to protect yourself.
And you had every right to be upset.
In fact, I'm proud of you.But I would try to ground yourself in your life right now. Look around you and let your senses tell you what is actually happening around you right now.
There is no one there threatening you, and hopefully your chickens will help to anchor back in the present. Cluck cluck!
Keep posting and thanks for sharing. I'll be thinking about you.
Love
Maddie
