Gender
Is a social construct
It harms women
By assigning
Sexual stereotypes;
And by pitting
Woman against woman,
Sister against sister.

Gender
Permeates our very lives
With rigid protocols
Of how a woman should be
Who she should be.
Should she deviate,
She will be shamed. Scorned.
Corrected.

Gender
Is conditioning from birth.
This is why some
Mistake it for being innate.
But it’s taught
Crammed
Down our throats
From the moment we enter this world,
Wearing pink or blue beanies.

Gender non-conforming people
We are the pioneers.
Showing the world
What it would look like
Without gender
Without sexual stereotypes
Without patriarchy,
We, who buck gender.

Women wearing “men’s clothes,”
Men wearing make-up and dresses
We are not trans!
Transgenders adhere strictly
To the sexual stereotypes
Of the opposite sex!
Claiming that personal traits
MAKE them the opposite sex!

But no!
They are not the opposite sex
And they never will be!
To accept one’s body
Nourishes one’s soul.

Gender
Is a cancer.
It is to be plucked out
By any means necessary!
It is time, my sisters
For a revolution,
‘for dismantling the patriarchy,
And for destroying the Cult of Gender
Once and for all!
