That takes the power away and that is what this is all about.



Exactly! You can start with small steps to help build your confidence and remember, the idea is not to get into an argument or be mean yourself, but rather to call the person on their behavior. Some women are very good at walking a fine line in social situations and will make passive aggressive or subtle comments that are intended to wound but are not blatant enough to demand a confrontation. Those are the ones that get away with it because many victims feel like they “may have misunderstood” or may have overreacted" or just don’t want a scene. You don’t have to make a scene, though. Just a quiet " Why would you say that?" or “What would make you ask me that?” with a surprised and serious look on your face will go far to turn the power around.
