You say boys don't cry
And that it's girly
To like certain colors
Or behave a particular way
And men shouldn't do that
Because they are 'men' and
These interests make them
Less of a man. I wonder
If you will in the near future,
Also stop women and say,
This time, let me have - a daughter,
Because it's not manly enough
For a baby boy to come
Out of your womb.
Let the men do that,
Giving birth to a man,
Who for you, will then be
Manly enough, strong enough,
With all the behavioral instincts
That you always thought
A man should have
And more importantly, an ego
That will, like a slow poison
Destroy the complete gender.
