The Hot Topic
The female body-
Silicone implants,
Cookie-cutter figure,
She would make the best mother,
Looks youthful,
Healthy.
Women’s bodies are
Defined as men’s property.
Literally a half-baked man.
A form of entertainment-
Including beer, nut crackers, cars, or rape.
Character is based on purity.
If you’re a virgin, you’re prude.
Too much sex, you’re a slut.
Either way there is publicity.
Miley Cyrus and Jessica Simpson believe in purity.
They’re the role models-
Dancing half naked on cars and wrecking balls.
That doesn’t matter though
Because they’re famous and the hot topic.
If a woman wants to have sex-
No birth control
Otherwise teen sex cults arise.
Women become sex maniacs.
Men would fall under women’s spell.
Moreover women can’t be leaders.
They’re too emotional.
Who would take care of the children?
Too much power turns women into a bitch.
Or if you’re a pretty female leader-
Like Sarah Palin-
Men can continue to enjoy you…
For reasons other than your political ideas.
It’s a man’s world.
It takes a woman
To be twice as good at something
Than a man
In order to be seen half as good.
