Just Another Poem About Feminism

You are a feminist.  But it’s easier to smile and say nothing when he makes you feel uncomfortable.  You are a feminist.  But don’t you want to wear pretty, sexy clothes?  You are a feminist.  But don’t try to take control or they’ll call you bossy.  You are a feminist.  But don’t try to make the first move.  You are a feminist.  But don’t stay out past 10, when it’s getting dark.  You are a feminist.  But don’t sit like that, not with a skirt on, at least.  You are a feminist.  But don’t worry if you’re not good at Maths.  You are a feminist.  But don’t you think it’s selfish, and childish, and ignorant to say you don’t want kids?  You are a feminist.  But you should probably play netball, not football.  You are a feminist.  But wouldn’t you like to have a handbag, not a rucksack?  You are a feminist.  But why should any of your clothes have practical pockets?  You are a feminist.  But surely you should have a boyfriend by now?  You are a feminist.  But don’t you think you look tired with no make up on?  You are a feminist.  You are a feminist.  Are you a feminist?
