Social Perspective Part 1

November 13, 2019

What is a girl?

What is a boy?

You may simply answer

The gender you were born as

Or your clothes

your looks

your voice

But these things

Simply do not define

You may say

It's because girls can have children

And boys cannot

In seahorses

The males give birth

Then you may say

It's their aggression

Look at hyenas

The females are practically monarchs
