Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : Title doesn’t give much info so I will explain further. 

This happened about 20 minutes ago. I (20F) just finished seeing captain marvel with my boyfriend and a group of our all guys friend. There were 5 boys in total (they average about 6’2” together) and little old 5’1” me (female). As the movie ended we began to walk out. I fell behind and was stuck walking with a group of young boys. 

Please note for the next part I did not make eye contact with any of the boys and had not even been sitting near them during the movie. 

As I was walking with said group of young boys one of them purposely bumps into me and stares at the side of my face. He then takes a deep inhale and goes “UGH smells like fish sticks!!”  His entire entourage of boys copy and begin also yelling “ugh do you smell those fish sticks!!” “Fish Sticks!!” And so on. 

I begin to push my way through them as I immediately become upset as that is a touchy subject for most women. As I am pushing my way through them they begin to make obnoxious moaning noises as if they were pleasured by me pushing through them. 

I grab onto my boyfriends jacket and say “Hey! Why didn’t you say something they’re saying I smell like fish sticks” 

His response is “ThoseCacti, they’re 13. That’s just giving them what they want. What am I gonna do? You don’t even smell who cares.” 

I agree. I see his point. It was probably just going to give them the reaction they wanted but I am really upset. No woman wants to hear they smell like that. I have also confided in my boyfriend about how I am nervous and insecure if I do smell like that. 

Also, after we exited the movies I was visibly upset. One of my guy friends asked me what was wrong and I told him. They all said nothing about what I just told them, said “see ya later” and left immediately even though after most movies we stand outside and talk about it. 

Would I be the asshole for going back and telling my boyfriend I wish that he defended me in some way? Would I also be the asshole for telling my friends I wish they had said something too?
