What are some ways in which you practice micro feminism? Go unhinged

Whenever a man pisses me off I donate 10€ to an abortion charity
Never moving on a sidewalk if a man is in my path
if I’m in a group and a man repeats what a woman said like it’s his idea, I’ll say, “Yes! Just like she said ” or something like that
“I went to see the doctor today”
“Oh yeah, what did she say?”
I hold the door open for men at the gas station. While holding it proudly announce “this is my power move.”
Some of them absolutely cannot or will not walk through it. It’s a wild world.
I tell my students to “woman up” when they need to show resilience!
I go back and forth on addressing married couples by woman first vs. man first. Gotta keep things interesting after all.
I taught my 9 year old the phrase “that’s what she said”
but he just uses it out of place, which makes it funnier
The other day I asserted my train armrest claim so hard the guy next to me moved over
i am a waitress, and i try to give the card to the woman when closing out if there is even 1% of ambiguity of whom the card belongs to

I’m a man, but I just wanted to say this…
I hate when guys introduce their wife or partner by saying “This is my wife, Michelle…”
I always say “This is Michelle, my wife…”
She’s an individual first who happens to be my wife.
I go for a walk every morning and when there is a couple walking toward me I purposefully drift to the man’s side so he’s the one that has to move when we pass each other.
Never using offensive words that are specifically designed to degrade women (s,c,b – the usual). When I say never, not even if it’s sung in a song. If I ever hear a sexist statement, it quite literally doesn’t matter who it came from, I will correct them. I shower the women around me with love, attention and gifts. Share important information about women’s struggles on social media. Cut off every man as soon as I sense even 1% of misogyny (I don’t befriend straight men). In a romantic setting, I don’t plan on settling ever (he needs to be competent in life skills, know how to house chores, be emotionally intelligent as much as I am, belong on the left side of the political spectrum and be financially stable and take care of his appearance). Don’t make myself small in front of men nor do I baby them or try to impress them like many pick mes around me do, that shit makes me want to vomit. At last, working on becoming part of academia and being the best version of myself as much as I can, and hopefully, set an example for other ladies.
When writing letters to married couples I always put the woman’s name first
Every time a man interrupts me I interrupt him back and firmly say “I wasn’t done talking”
not sure if that counts as micro but they are very shocked every time they immediately get interrupted back. Acting like they didn’t just fucking interrupt ME lmao.
When writing emails I will always use “Miss or Sir” When i dont know the gender of whom I’m writing to. Never Sir first.
And also adress C level positions in female if they are female… La Gerenta. La Presidenta.
In Spanish, C level positions are all male gender, even if it’s a woman… would never ever male gender their position… or any position…
I exist as a small, high voiced, unassuming, and not at all intimidating person who can lift 5 gallon buckets at work and have certificates in specifically male dominated fields and keep my house spotless while having nice hair damn it. You make everything you do look easy, so if the day comes when a man has to do it, they have to actively try to figure it out. My husband has no idea how our washing machine operates, but I’ll be damned if he doesn’t say thank you, lol
Wherever I get a cold, I go upstairs to bed without giving my husband a heads up for doing chores first. Just like- oh man time to rest. And I come down when I feel like it. Works for him, so now it works for me.

I am ‘Ms’ irrespective of my marital status and have been since my late teens.
