[SPOKEN WORD/SLAM POEM] THE REAL TRUTH ABOUT BEING A GIRL.

*Just a quick note before I start writing my entry for the day- this is from my channel on YouTube – the link to it is here if you wish to see my video: https://youtu.be/Gamxszasp5M or you can find the video by clicking here as well on the playlist under POEMS I HAVE WROTE: Spoken Word- The Real Truth about being a girl.

I shall let you readers decide how you want to do this as it will pay to have video up as well as my writing to understand what I am saying to you all.

 

Now, let us begin my writing for the day:

 

 

Today, people always say girls of this generation are so vain.
People always say that girls of this generation are so plain
That most of these girls put their brains inside their books.
Instead of focusing on their portrayed good looks.
I do blame girls too.
Why do I blame girls too?
Listen up close to what I’m about to say,
We’re all now having to have the “Perfect body”, “Perfect shape” and the “Perfect hairdo”

 

Then and only then do I take a step and great look at this bleak world we’re living in,

I opened my grey eyes to see the truth about being a girl today.
You and I as a girl hear guys say some really rude and crude stuff about us in how they imagine and envision us to what and how they want us to be,
“Dude, she’s ten times tighter than the girl who you were hitting on and getting a quick ray!”
Or, “l want to hit up your sister one day!”
Or, “Her arse looks like a railway track like these stretch marks but unless it’s big like Kim Kaye.

 

I never grew up thinking all of these things that have been said and taught as the insecurities and self-doubt started to creep in.

 

Don’t blame me when I thought about boys at a certain age
As I thought about deeply dinner dates and long-lasting soulmates and not fuckboys to look at or down on you as shark bait.
I’m sorry if I’m too old-fashioned to you about what was taught and has been instilled in me
This is who and what I am and what I see
Sorry but not sorry.
This sort of mentality and attitude toward girls breaks my heart.
For every girl growing up in this world, we live in.

 

Instead of a decent boy or young man showing he cares by sending a text message of “How are you?” “How was your day?”
We girls nowadays receive degrading text messages of “Are you up and do you want to have a fuck!”

 

I am standing up right now to you to tell you this, “I am not a tool, trophy or some object and many other labels you may want to label me as.”

“I am human and I do have a voice.”

 

And I do have something to say and no I don’t what to shut up and listen as the roles and tables have been turned as it is now my time to speak and stand up for my TRUTH.
Don’t forever assume that I or any other girls belong just in the bedrooms of yours.
I/we women belong in a conference room or any other room for that matter that I/we crave affection, praise, and the right sort of attention.

 

And for anyone that thinks that this generation is plain and vain.
And that there’s a reason because that reason is that we girls have been and always been held under the microscope day after day.
Being held under some sort of force or some conceptions, ideas, and more, and the very thought of being beautiful or being beautiful doesn’t seem to exist anymore.
And to you boys out there that you may as well start having a checklist or to tick along in that specific checklist that we meet your guidelines/criteria
So, here’s the list for you boys to check if we qualify and to satisfy your wants, needs, and expectations-
BIG BUTTS, BIG BOOBS, SKINNY/SLIM WAIST, Oh and let’s include the small nose, plump and filled lips, BIG HIPS, HAIRLESS & CARELESS,
BUT STILL HAVE NO FAIRNESS.

 

But, in all fairness- I do want to be seen as beautiful too,But, don’t get me wrong- that list you’re envisioned or dreamed of at correct
That this is all a joke to some as all of us girls come in different shapes and sizes.
I don’t want to be demeaned
I’m not the same girl that I was at sixteen.
I mean I’m stuck in between transitioning from being a girl to a young woman.

 

Growing up in a crazy world- that has taught me to look sexy
To get a degree
Maybe some kind of makeup or beauty surgery.
But, never or not to disagree with misogamy.

 

A world that has not taught me how to be a “Real” woman
That we’re living constantly in fear
Fear of our basic healthcare and health needs will disappear,
Or even our paycheck can somehow be smaller than the man that does the very same job as us even if do a better job than them,
Or the boss just tells us, girls, to stop giving blow-jobs.
If you just want a raise, we girls have to sacrifice and compromise
Show me above into what lies above those thighs.

 

Oh boy, – Come on – puh-leeze!”
The moment you want what you want from us as well as also misidentifying and/or misunderstanding everything.
Was when you forgot or want to forget that not even a hundred years ago
I could not vote.
You look at what happens when you’re trying to demote
The very beings and bodies that gave birth to you – puh-leeze.
We’re used to it all of what you and society have thrown at us and yet we all girls are appalled but certainly
We, girls, don’t know what it is to feel like to be free.

 

Quality is that it’s not just about calling someone out,
Quality is having accountability and taking responsibility for their own actions
Quality is education from classrooms to courtrooms to conference rooms and to computer screens
It’s using fast and growing technology for the greater good.
And for the “Me too” movement
And for equality – it’s for TRUTH.’

 

This strong voice that you’re hearing today as I stand is going to be breaking through the silence, tribulations, and barricades
All of this and more needs to be broken and no one that can’t or won’t exist shouldn’t have to be tolerated.
It goes for all of you!

 

Changing the future – cleaning the path for every woman and man
It’s all about raising the next generation
To know that not only does the voice matter and count BUT it will be heard and that’s why we got the power in our hands to change
Because- we will not sit down and/or back and nod and smile
While certain people want to reconcile to the rules to be fertile.

 

 

Sorry, this is my life and body baby!
I may be a young lady but my parents always told me to speak out and fight against the injustices of any and every kind that matters to me.
So- here I am today speaking out for all the ladies in the house,
We will not stop the fight til we get the rights
We shall and will be silenced no more
For every woman of race, gender, disability, color, size, etc in this place of this world.

 

 

AND THIS IS THE TRUTH- OUR TRUTH OF BEING A GIRL!
