#becauseiamawoman
Don't look at me that way You can't always have your way No I'm not someone you slay And no you can't ask how much I weigh Don't say the place where I belong is the kitchen Just because I am a woman. Don't stare at me secretly from the window Don't think you can impress me you ****** Don't think you could ever be my shadow Always behind me trying to follow Don't think my courage can't be summoned Just because I am a woman. Don't think you can sit in the empty seat next to me in the bus What , do you think I can't create a fuss ? Don't think you can just touch me and run It shows you're scared and what makes you think you have won? Don't you think it's unfair to continue female foeticide What makes you think you're the one to decide? How is it an honour, when it is honour killing ? Why can't you be the one to understand her feelings? No , I don't think you can treat me like vermin Just because I am a woman. So how about you show us some respect And your actions , you began  to inspect And how about you treat us as your equal I'm pretty sure that is legal So how about you apologise honestly, it will be forgiven Oh yeah, that's because I am a woman.
