It is not every day that you encounter someone who knows exactly how to handle a total stranger trying to police their clothing, but Reddit user purrfunctory recently shared a story doing just that. She took to Reddit to describe an incident where a woman attempted to shame her for having visible bra straps, only for the poster to twist the conversation in a way that likely left the critic wishing she had just kept her mouth shut, making it a great addition to the r/traumatizeThemBack subreddit.
The original poster, who identifies as a T-7 paraplegic, was out running errands on a particularly hot day when she was stopped by a woman accompanied by her two teenage sons. To stay cool, the poster said she was wearing shorts, a tank top, and a sports bra. She noted that her shirt was baggy because she has lost nearly half of her body weight over the last 12 years. As she was walking with her service dog, Cap, the woman stepped directly into her path.
