i wrote a whole pep talk on how i deal with it but brainly is like noooooooo. i have really struggled with this as I am a girl in a male dominated sport/career. I say be kind but fair. flip your inner Beth Dutton switch when you need to (search up some of her quotes, i love them). Hold your head high queen. Stand straight. don't smile or giggle to their insults. give them a smug look and prove them wrong. tell them that they may be ______ than you but that they look miserable like a rat drowning in the sewer. they may be surrounded by what they think makes them happy but really they are dying from it all and aren't really all that happy.
