Findingme's UMS journal

This might be more serious than you think.  For guys who’ve done serious time, those comments are NEVER just a joke.  At best it’s a dominance move, at worst he means it literally, but calling another guy a naughty little girl is deadly serious for him.

I saw it as a dominance move when it happened. He was laughing since he knew he already had won any battle with me, and I merely cowered in my demeanor. He was in that "let's have fun kicking someone's ass" mood, which isn't too common, but it's a violent street mentality which is fucked up and needs very little gas for it to blow up.

And he never called me his bitch, but he was reveling like he'd won that too. I picked up that message from his look and words.

This morning I saw him, he approached me like he usually does, which I have interpreted as safe. When I saw him, I thought about telling him about my reaction yesterday, but decided not to. His mood today was back to his normal at work, which is loud and boisterous, and I had no desire to re-awaken what I saw yesterday. That was my real reason for letting it lie; my own safety.
