The F-Word

Of all the other words out there why do I have to choose this one?
Yeah, this dirty little word- or so I hear!
Here's that F-word for you people
FEMINISM


I hear, feminism is for 'angry' women and 'feminine' men. 
Angry women? Isn't that a misogyny?
Feminine men? Isn't that misandry?

I still hear, it's for them. 
Now I ask,
Who are these 'angry' women?
Transsexual women?
Bisexual women or an asexual one?
Poor women?
Women with illness or those million women who are body shamed?
Who? I would like to hear it now. 
The voice has fainted already. 

Who are those 'feminine' men?
Gay men? Or a bisexual one?
Men with responsibilities?
Men who are sane?
Men around you?

Ahh!! I now hear it again, that the F-word is a dirty little word. 

Well, hear me out now. 
The F-word is liberty to examine our privileges. 
The F-word is to listen to each other. 
The F-word is looking at options through a broader spectrum. 
The F-word is to stand up for each other. 
The F-word is to practice equality. 
The F-word is for 'everyone'

Hear me out. The F-word isn't dirty after all, trust me. 
It's possible. 
Feminism is possible. 

I try. 
I try again. 
I try again harder. 
I don't hear them anymore!!
