My friend got away but the man chased me down the street punching me on the forehead and kicking me in the back. The reason? A "man [my friend] was wearing a skirt". More than seven years on, I bear no physical scars from the attack but that moment when I locked eyes with that stranger is etched indelibly in my memory. This person had never seen me in his life but still he hated me.
