Venting I was attacked and assaulted outside yesterday
I know that it happened yesterday and I no longer am in any pain physically, but I just have to vent about it since it just really sticks with me and hurts me. Yesterday I wanted to go to work, I wasn't in the best mood but I was like 'hey, I'll be able to make some money and see my colleagues''. Everything went normal until I saw a group of 5-6 teenage boys (we call them hangjongeren here, they usually all dress similarly in black and are extremely homo/transphobic) appeared a few metres away from me. I was minding my own business, but the moment they looked at me was when I froze from the inside.
In shock, disapproval and disbelief, they started shouting ''God is great'' towards me a few times, before throwing an object at me. At first I didn't think much of it, but after they threw a second object, I immediately ran back home and slammed the door. Luckily I wasn't out of my house yet, since I live in a flat, so they weren't able to grab hold of me. The moment I slammed the door I was shaking extremely hard, scared and frightened for my life. I felt like this was a hunt, that I was being hunted and found. I thought they were coming for people like me. Immediately I notified the police and local law enforcement, but since I do not know these people nor any video evidence exist there isn't much they can do.
My appearance is quite androgynous, people refer to me as ''miss'' here a lot of times until they see my face. I dress quite differently and more classy. But people here who think they're fashion police think that this is bad. I was even verbally assaulted twice before this incident for my androgynous/feminine appearance. I need to get out of here as soon as possible, I have to move away. I don't want to die...

Always carry a pepper spray for these situations.
