> shaming me for having the audacity to go in public dressed as a sexy video game character

I don't think she gets it.

If you're ashamed of how you look, maybe the internet is not the problem.




Being shamed for something is not the same thing as nor implies a necessity of being ashamed of something.


to elaborate on this excellent (though rather confusing) wording, I think you really don't get it. She didn't mean that they made her ashamed of the act, but that they were being hostile to her by saying stuff like "how DARE she dress up as a sexy video game character!! How dare she have FUN!!" get it?


I don't think you get it. Life I mean. The Internet is not your personal zoo.
