Welcome, ladies of the WWW. You know when you're out minding your own business, and some guy approaches you? He says he wants your number. You tell him, "No, I have a boyfriend." Whether or not you're actually in a relationship is totally irrelevant. He then presses on, and says something like, "Take my number just in case you break up." Some women might have a sassy comeback up their sleeve, but many are just shocked at the misogyny and lack of respect to be able to do anything but scramble away as quickly as possible. In truth, when engaging with disrespect from men, the best thing to do is ignore them, but many of us still find ourselves mulling over clever responses in the weeks proceeding the incident, re-imagining how the dialogue may have gone if we had just thought of that witty retort in the moment.

Many of us reading probably haven't been told to go make a sandwich in a degrading way since high school, but in case you ever find yourself shocked by these immature words coming out of a grown man's mouth, here are some clever comebacks to store in your brain so that you'll know exactly what to say in the moment - not half a year later.
