unless you opened the door because they were almost there and then went and sat down or back to your room then i can see why they would lock the door behind them and shut the door. otherwise why are you opening the door for ppl and just walking away from it 😭 i typically just stay by the door and hold it open for them then close it and lock it if i am

It’s a DOOR 😭 why would you walk in and not lock it?? Nobody else is coming why not just lock it behind you for safety. This is such a weird antic to have lol

Bc usually you hold the door open for them and whoever opens the door locks it? I’ve never heard of locking other people’s doors unless they ask you to 😭

I’m white and grew up in and still live in the same major city. I live in an apartment in the midtown area currently and don’t always lock my door bc sometimes I just forget and I’ve never had any trouble nor do I worry bc I don’t have anything worth stealing. I also dog sit and when I do meet and greets, I’ve never thought to lock the door behind me tbh. They either lock it themselves or leave it unlocked as it’s usually only about 30 mins

Not tryna be mean but yes. Honestly, I figure a lot of white women might not think or remember to lock their doors because they often grow up in safer, more privileged neighborhoods where crime rates are low and the culture around locking up isn’t as emphasized. At my PWI, nobody locks their car doors probably because the culture doesn’t stress it and then act shocked when their cars get broken into at 11am.

I get that. I grew up in a city tho in an area that wasn’t the safest and my mom was always super paranoid of other ppl and strangers and I think in response it resulted in a more laidback approach for me bc I don’t like feeling like I’m living in fear and paranoid of every stranger I alwayssaa lock my car door tho I never realized ppl didn’t
