4. I wear my star of David with pride too

In 2016 after tfg won, my friend was told by her parents to stop wearing hers.
My reaction was to get star of David earrings, they're more visible, and wear them in my second holes, always. Got a 2nd pair several years ago so I can switch or wear one of each. And I just ordered some Israeli flag pins!

I'm female,100 lbs lighter and 10 inches shorter than you, so I avoid confrontations but I won't hide! Sad and telling that you've had to deal with antisemitism in 4 countries. Growing up in NYC I was almost 30 before I experienced or recognized it. Often it's subtle, not blatant, but I've heard and read too many accounts over the years.
