Unfortunately, on this planet, many of us female human beings have been programmed since childhood to "be nice". I implore you to consider unlearning that if you have not already.
Consider that adolescent through adult males are infrequently given this advice outside of anyone beyond their maybe their mothers or female partners; but rarely their friends.
Meanwhile, women and girls shun, silence, name call, bully, and assault other women and girls for what they perceive as a failure to "be nice" to males.
Also, consider that "being nice" has not always served our health, safety, and well-being.
Give yourself the gift of the strongest version of you possible.
