Since Hillary has been a front-runner for the Democratic Nomination there have been lots of news covering her that, well, doesn’t really have anything to do with politics as much as it has to do with her being a woman in politics. What happened with her recent victory has been noted in the video above and shared over a number of news sources. But what’s happening to HRC goes beyond just her, it speaks to a “cat-calling” culture that has embedded itself across the world in various forms. Being a woman and being told to smile happens constantly, across the country, and as a woman in New York, the city of resting bitch face, it happens to me constantly. Now you can always choose to ignore a cat-caller by remaining silent, however if you find yourself particularly annoyed with rubbing Vaseline on your front teeth to keep your lips from covering your sexy teeth, here are 10 things you can say to a man who’s telling you to smile:
  1. Say, "Tell me a joke: [insert insult here] funny man, clown, jackass, ect..."
  2. Start smiling like an insane person, extra points if you can start drooling from the side of your mouth.
  3. Say, "That's what I told your mom after I went down on her."
  4. Growl and start chomping in his direction.
  5. Say, "You're right I just killed my husband, I should be happy!"
  6. Say, "You would be much more handsome if you didn't speak."
  7. Bite into a blood capsule you have stashed at all times and then give them a bloody grin.
  8. Start crying and say, you're dog/mom/dad just died, you lost your job, you got diagnosed with VD, ect...
  9. Say, "I'm being like Posh Spice, because smiling gives you wrinkles and no man wants a prune face after all, so I just got angry-face Botox and now I'm stuck like this. Who's your favorite Spice Girl?!"
  10. Do as Abby and Ilana do...
