What if I was a Woman?

by samuel   Aug 26, 2005


I am a man
And so I am expected
To walk and talk tough
With my chest
Forever quarreling with the wind.

But what if I was a woman?
Then I could easily sing
And cry without shame;
I could follow the samba's lead
And speak of my romantic
Undertones;
Dusky dealing,
Rolling frolicking lipsticked
Mouth maneuvering
With my beau.

If I were a woman
I would seduce the menfolk
With my taut nipples
And fish them out of
Their egoistic pretenses.

    Well, tinkerbell, i never did intend to portray the womenfolk as manipulative - on the contrary i wanted to show a good number of men off as egoistic - i was on your side!

    You could never be woman because you have the mentality of a man. Women are so much more than sexual beings. I think it's gross the way you portray us as a manipulative gender
