When I walk down the street and a man calls me 'Sweet ****' With his wedding ring clad hand resting on the rolled down window of his SUV I am supposed to like it Fat girls should be grateful someone wants them, after all Women should be grateful for the attention of strangers Women are taught to be sponges Domestic and silent and absorbing the words of men around them If a woman talks 30 percent of the time A man will feel like she is dominating the coversation A man calling a woman 'baby' on a street corner is a compliment But a teenage girl saying a celebrity has nice eyes is fetishizing Men are taught that they are the default mode While women are taught to make room Men sit with their legs spread and elbows out on subway trains Women tuck their ankles together and rest their hands in their laps The great crime of patriarchy though Isn't the way it affects how men feel about women But how women feel about women Like every great dystopian novel on the planet We are taught to hate ourselves and hate each other Because that will keep us distracted from the real problem The richest woman in the world makes one sixth what the richest man makes Girls are still afraid to speak up in classrooms from first grade to PHDs No one listens when we start talking So we start screaming And everyone just tells up to shut up And stop being so **** sensitive
