A Female With *** In Mind
I am a female
I am a ****** being
The two are, surprisingly
Not mutually exclusive.
A *****, a ****, a *****
As the society might describe it
Are words with the meaning
To keep women submissive.
I may
****
who
I please
When
I please
For whatever reason I so choose.
And it doesn't have a **** thing to do with you.
Heaven forbid I'm not viginistic
When my ring finger is bound
Because viginity is a 'gift'
I mustn't pass it round.
I must walk like a lady
And only **** who I love
But the boys can run freely
Kiss and tell and call me a ****.
He's been with eleven girls
And has a girlfriend on the side
I've been with two boys
And not at the same time.
A pat on the back for him
Because he's got all the
*******
But social exclusion for me
Because my ****** nature is vicious.
God, I must be a *******
For actually speaking of ***
I'm a woman, we can't do that
But, ****, sometimes I forget.
See, I was raised to hold my head high
Without looking up.
I was raised to be ladylike, polite
And wait until I found love.
I was brought up to hold my tongue
I was trained not to take up space
I was taught not to roughhouse about
Or follow the boys' ways.
I was brought up to fear ***
Until I found love or was married
But what the **** is love or a ring
When I can't even get equality?
I was taught that I should be ashamed
If I thought sexually
And I shouldn't even
consider
trying
*******.
I was told to hide my body
Because women are to be
pure
If I wasn't pristine, who would want me?
I'd be a lonely spinster.
My body is my own
To do with what I please.
So **** your expectations, Society;
*
I will have equality
I am rather ******.
