Refusing To Be a Man

I'm not going to try to tell you that I'm different from all the rest

I've been subject to the same de-structure of desire and I've felt the same effects

I'm a hetero-sexist tragedy

And potential rapists all are we

But don't tell me this is natural

This is nurturing

And there's a difference between sexism and sexuality

I had different desires prior to my role-remodelling

And at six years of age you don't challenge their claims

You become the same

(Or withdraw from the game and hang your head in shame)

I think that's exactly what I did

I tried to sever the connections between me and them

I fought against their further attempts to convince a kid that birthright can bestow the power to yield the subordination of women and do you know what patricentricity means?

I found out just a couple of days/months/years/minutes ago

It means male values uber alles and hey!

Whaddaya know... sex has been distorted and vilified

I'm scared of my attraction to body types

If everything desired is objectified then maybe eroticism needs to be redefined

And I refuse to be a man
