“Don’t wear that”

“Don’t eat too much”

“Don’t say that”

Don’t. don’t. Don’t.

In this world, we can’t wear what we want.

Because “The boys get distracted”

In this world, we cant eat what we want

Because “No one wants a fatty”

In this world, we can’t say what we want

Because “It’s not ladylike”

In this world, we are torn down

Because boys can’t control themselves

But it’s our fault, right?

Because our bodies are “too distracting”

Or our body doesn’t “Please” the boys.

Or we can’t speak the way “boys” do

The way we dress, or eat, or speak has nothing to do with them.

The way we dress, or eat, or speak is our decision

But speak up and you will get shot down.

How dare you speak against the man,

Against the mighty “Superior Gender”

Shut up.

Shut your mouth.

You don’t have the right.

That’s what we get told.

You deserve what happened to you

You’re worthless

Stupid.

We get ridiculed for existing.

That’s what it’s like to be a girl.
