Did I need to prove the kind of girl I am? As if a category would add to my inferior condition Did I need to hide how I felt about being left behind? As if showing emotion would have proven me weak I had every intention of going on that camping trip But you said I would slow down everybody Come to think of it, you never seemed to mind Manuel's obesity slowing you down I guess the **** between my legs is more of an impediment than the blubber belly of your male companion.

Can apply to many situations where societies' indoctrinated misogyny can leak into close relationships.
