We, as women, are told to be a certain thing

We are told to do this
To not do this
To get in the kitchen
And make you a sandwich

Pushed to have the figure of a goddess
Or, close to a Victoria Secret model
Without being able to work out
Because that would take time from house chores

Molded to have perfect manners
And never speak, unless spoken to
Always say "Yes" and "Please"
To not have thoughts of your own
Spend your time at home,
But have the knowledge of a scholar

Demanded to get married
Before you even finish college
And have children just as quick

As men,
We are told to bear all responsibilities
Expected to be the moneymaker
And have a job where you go each day

You are the protector
Used as a shield
And then discarded just as easily

Made to have a Calvin Klein body
With matching biceps
When you have different,
They look at you as if you are strange
Another species

Forced to think and act one way
To match the norms
Think about *** and *****
Or which party you'll be going to next

Now tell me,
Who truly has it harder?
