A Female
Location
What is a female? Who is a female?
In the world today, when I think of an answer to that question
I think of a unique body re-made and trained to suit 'the man'
Traditions taught me to cook so I could hold 'the man' down
"The ways to a man's heart is through his stomach"
Those mama warned me against tried to teach me to expose myself
"To get to a man's heart, aim below his stomach a little,"
Society at one time teased me to trim my body right.
"The average man likes em thick" "No he likes em skinny" "No he just likes em curvy, regardless of their size"
Papa taught me to hide till it's time to get married.
"Its a males world, a female has no place he would say"
Culture commands me to wait till marriage before I know a man sexually. That's okay, my religion does too but what about the man?
"What a man does, does not matter, just aim to be the best bride, cook, clean, be fruitful, faithful, learn to hide your pain, feelings, dreams and wants. Submit yourself! Marriage is all about the man's satisfaction "
Jobs redefines genders
"Yes you do the same job, but your a female so you get 77 cents of every of the man's 1dollar"
Justice!!! He raped her...and there is concrete evidence
"He was provoked by her dress code, not guilty"
Justice!!! He abused his daughter
"He's sick, he will get therapy but for the homosexuals that got married, 14 years in prison.
Justice!!!
You know what, there's no point.
Justice is becoming a foundation for injustice
And the idea of suiting 'the man'... set for females shrinks the ultimate height a woman can reach.
It buries the worth of a female and blinds the world from seeing that,
"A female is pride"
And her world is her court... she decides how it is played
A female is a pride that should not be condemned by culture, justice, traditions, jobs, society, papa or anyone
Nelson Mandela quoted "freedom cannot be achieved unless the woman have been emancipated from all forms of oppression"
The greatest nation in the world today are nations that knows the quality of its women and understands that it's female are its pride.
So females!!! when you are asked who are you?
Say confidently with your heads up high
"I am pride, the full circle, within me is the power to create, nurture and transform, RESPECT THAT!"
