Afraid? not sure I follow you? Dropping boys or being dropped by them isn't the issue, but rather attracting every dude who wants to prove their manhood by taking on the girl riding her commuter bike and carrying a 15 lb messenger bag, when all I really want is a peaceful commute... I'd rather not encourage those types.
