Yes, I Have A Penis

Do not assume (if I hold the door for you),
that I am making a statement
about your inabilities
to open the door for yourself.
If you hold it for me,
I'll say 'thankyou'.

Do not assume (if I pay for the meal),
that I am underestimating
your earning capacity
as a woman.
If you invite me out for a meal,
you're paying.

Do not assume (if I defend your rights),
that I am belittling
the attempts that you have made
to defend your rights yourself.
If you defend my rights,
I'll consider you human.

Inspired by my female tutor, who told me that, as a male, I had no place arguing in favour of women's rights.

Yours to do with as you please. My Mistress.....

Wow. What an ignorant, sexist moron.

Was she anti women's rights? 'Cause that'd be hilarious. It sounds crazy, but I've seen it happen a lot. You could thow it back in her face SO easily.

"We should all go back to the kitchen, sacrifice our right to bodily autonomy, be subordinate to men, and have no opinions of our own? You first!"

"If I had a nickel for every time I loved you, I'd have a ****load of nickels."

That's like telling a guy he has no right to have an opinion on abortion. Hello, my penis doesn't revoke my right to an opinion on anything.

This poem has a good point.

All I want are bites on my neck, and a little something more. ;)

I love it. So many women feel that way, and it really makes me angry sometimes.

Omfg. I hate when girls take all those things the wrong way. It's called "Being polite." :( Polite does not mean "Lolz, you're a woman, so you have to get back in the kitchen and make me a pie."

Anyway, point is, you are for the win. <3

If I loved you, I wouldn't have cheated on you with Batman. Or Superman. Or all three Robins. Yes, even Jason.

Your tutor needs to be struck off, like, now.

I'm with the rest of them... your tutor has some serious issues. OOooooooooh, people like that make me angry. I hate when people confuse being nice, being generous, being compassionate, or feeling strongly about something... for sexism.

Good work, slick and to the point.
