    I been yelled at equally by men and wommen, however it was a man in a dump truck pulling equipment behind him that intentionally first slowed to a crawl pulling aside me to stare me down before then pulling the dump truck ahead of me bringing the trailer into my lane running me off the road. I had only 2 options getting off the lane or getting hit. I called 911 to no avail and reported him, but one thing that was especially scary about it was as he pulled ahead of me his truck backfired so I was terrified I was being shot at as well. I hadn't been riding long when that happened, and nearly turned around to go home and park the bike, but I knew if I did that I'd likely never get on the bike again.
    Just last weekend I had some beotches in a car yelling at me to get off the road and threw something out their window, but I don't know what it was, possibly a cigarette, but luckily it didn't hit me.
    Don't think of it as getting hot flashes. Think of it as your inner child playing with matches

    Mimi - this one isn't even close though there is a little ironic twist...

    95% of the time it has been men yelling at me, and 83% of those have been on trucks/suv's. Therefore, I deduct that 78.85% of all men on the road driving on SUV's will yell at me

    Er, something like that.

    here's the irony I alluded to:

    It was actually a woman who hit me with her truck last month.

    Go figure!
