Expectations
My knowledge
of my modern society
understands the expectations
of societal views on women,
but not have I acknowledged them
You see
The only thing different
from a man and a woman
Are only physical
Correct?
These are the things that make
them stand out
These are the things that define
them as beautiful or sexy
Not their intellectual talents
Not their robust wills
Women are not objects
That you can buy, rent, or loan
The stronghold of a woman, should not
be defined as a 'trophy'
Because we are not just something, you store
and look at when you want to, in awe
No, we have more in store than that
Correct?
I see the differance between men and women
by personal attributes
What women of this world can give back, but men can't
Ever thought about that?
Women gave birth to this world
After that men built it
Women give off that sense of love and support
To her fellow sister in need, instead of judgement
Women blend those elements of
Integrity, Intelligence, Complexity, Beauty, and Strength
There are no neglections to men in this message
There is just empowernment
To the 'downgraded', sterotypical, manipulation expectation of women
