"Sexism" - A Poem about the Ongoing Battle in Society
Sexism
An age old societal issue
Just recently the media has begun
To show the true horrors
Of Sexual Assault
Of men in power
Manipulating Monsters
Wronged Women who have dealt with sexism
And
Sexual assault since the dawn of time
No means no
Are you deaf? Can you not hear?
Because nothing said is not an okay.
Ignorance and incapacitation is not consent.
But you know that, already.
Sexy? Sure,
before.
Slutty? Sure,
after.
I mean, She was asking for it!
Small dress?
Hell yes!
Short Skirts
Small Shirts
How about
Stop Sexualizing
Stop Slut Shaming
10% of Sexual Assault Victims are men.
Do not discriminate
Women Rape
Were they wearing skirts too?
Manipulating Monsters
Wronged PEOPLE.
This is a hate on hate crime.
A person to person offense.
Men and Women can both be victims.
Let’s stop with this macho masculinity.
And start with educating on assault
In its full validity.
I am bearing witness to a never ending battle
A personal battle
A female battle
A male battle
A human battle
Monsters versus humanity?
United humans stand unparalleled
But as of right now, divided is our state.
The Monsters are winning
But we must not give up
For this is just a battle
And we have a whole war ahead of us.
