A bible thumper took the thumping literally at a busy intersection outside a 7 eleven in my area. They screamed loudly that I was going to hell and other biblical nonsense. Then proceeded to try and beat some sense into me with a bible. All the while asking what I was going to do. "Real men don't hit girls!" And then countering that with, "Look at the pathetic she/he getting beat by a girl!" Kinda put me in a tough spot! The first hit poked my eye a little so I was disoriented and took a sec to find my bearings to run away.

It happened again too, this time causing a cut that required stitches at my eyebrow, and while my friend restrained her as we waited for police (on a side street with no people around) I went up to her and threw a very fast strike to her head stopping just short and told her, "If you ever pull this crap again, I'm a feminist who wants equality for all, so I'm not going to care what gender you happen to identify as. I'm making a complaint to the police having obviously NOT touched you after 2 physical attacks where I have notable injuries. You don't get a 3rd pass. 3rd time I will break your bones if you try to physically harm me!"

Thankfully it did stop. Hate that I had to resort to threats of violence to stop her but I needed to know it was safe to walk around my area and not worry about some pathetic excuse for a human being potentially waiting with her bible, ready to lash out. What a great Christian, eh?

To be honest the humiliation in my area was worse than the physical attack though. I was scared to go to that 7 eleven for quite a while, worrying I'd be recognised as the "she/he" attacked outside :-/.
