I had a homophobic, female colleague who humiliated me publicly by telling me to sing to "I will survive" at a company event on company grounds since it's known as a gay anthem. She kept laughing and insisting I sing it. I kept telling her no politely. Other colleagues noticed how uncomfortable I was getting since I wasn't out at work, even if I was effeminate. No 1 thought she was bullying me since she's female. I told colleagues and higher ups why I felt really uncomfortable and bullied by her, and word got back to her, and she kept attacking me verbally with snide digs and rude comments. She kept giving me dagger looks and she'd slam the doors whenever I'd be near her. She was passive aggressive and made things hellish at work and no 1 did anything about it even if I complained since she's female and therefore can't possibly hurt a male.
I said hello to a friendly, female colleague of mine while walking the hallway while she was talking to a bespectacled female colleague named roxy. For whatever crazy reason, roxy got mad and screamed at me while telling me to talk to my other female colleague after they were done talking. She told me to talk to her later while PUSHING me aside. I was shocked. I told higher ups regarding the incident and they did nothing since roxy is female and couldn't possibly hurt me. I was told by other colleagues that roxy was annoyed with me and that's why she pushed me, which apparently was fine with a lot of the female colleagues since Roxy's female and can't hurt me since I'm male.
Another female colleague mockingly told me that she'd set me up on a date with a female. She'd ask what my type of female was, while another female colleague, who was a lesbian, kept laughing while I was being asked. I took things in stride despite the homophobic bullying from a straight and lesbian female colleague. I never reported that to the higher ups since they wouldn't have done anything after what the other 2 female bullies did.
Needless to say, I quit this toxic environment where females can bully males and the other females and males don't do anything about these females running amok. Any advice on what I should have done? Any stories about how u battled against the oppressive, gynocentric toxicity and the culture of hatred against us males?
