Dear Sexist Males

Sexist Males

Oh, how your toxic masculinity

makes me feel so appreciated.

I admire how your face

Can. Be. Found. Everywhere.

I. look. 

In my school, 

And on TV. 

Some of you, 

Are so kind. 

But not really. 

Your athleticism can be compared 

to the mighty Hercules.

If only, if only, 

You were emotionally strong as well. 

But  I’m sure you’ll still succeed, 

In your own way. 

Oh, and your beautiful comments, 

When I am presenting a school project, 

Make me so happy. 

I work so hard, 

Just for you to criticize my project. 

Which obviously could never be as good as yours. 

If only you had actually done your project, 

So you could give me some tips.

Also, I appreciate how when I go to speak, 

You cut me off. 

Your words are so much more important 

For everyone else to hear. 

You are found everywhere. 

Young and old. 

Short and tall.
Don't be insecure about yourself!

No one could be better than you. 

After all, how many state championships do you have?

Dear reader,

    It seems that from the time women are born, they are objectified, discriminated against, and treated as more of a companion, than a person. Whether it be teachers only asking the boys to help lift "heavy objects," to parents claiming their son will have all the girls flocking over him, females are often seen as less when compared to a male. 

    Women have a bigger place in our society than the immaculate standards and placement the male gender labels us to have. We are more than mothers and daughters. We are NOT objects, not trophies, not inanimate objects to ignore. 

    

    We are people.
