5.3.20

the difference between 

 

LETTING SOMEONE COME 

into your home + going 

into someone’s home. 

 

SEE, 

this is why 

we should be talking 

about INVITATION 

rather than consent. 

 

THERE ARE THE PEOPLE 

who wait for an invitation. 

THERE ARE THE PEOPLE 

who ask for an invitation. 

 

THERE ARE THE PEOPLE 

who invite themselves 

in + make you feel like 

you’ve invited them. 

 

THERE ARE THE PEOPLE 

who feel an astonishing 

level of entitlement to enter 

(+ do so on their terms). 

 

PERSONALLY, 

I’m guilty of 

NOT SLAMMING THE DOOR

in someone’s face, 

 

screaming 

GO FUCK YOURSELF

from the top of my lungs, 

 

when I should have.
