Male Feminist

How many times

have you heard
A man use the f word?
Feminine.
Like Female and adrenaline
Feelings and medicine
Fear and masculine
Fate and melanin
For all women.
To my feminine, feminist brothers - we are a family.
To my masculine, manly others - we are a family.
To my sons, growing up again - you are my family.
Hate divides hate divides hate divides love.
How much division till weve had enough?
Be a Man: A young mans guide to manly manliness
Be a man, they tell me, and youll be fine.
Be a man, they tell me, and learn to climb.
Climb all the rocks. Climb all the trees.
Climb UP the ladder and OVER the weak
But what if Im a man who listens?
A man who prefers his fingernails to glisten
A man who saved himself for the right moment to be christened
Can I be an outdoors AND an indoors man
A scrubbing the kitchen floor on all fours man...
So
Be a mans man. Be a ladys man.
Be a GENTLE man. Be a wing man.
Whatever you do be a loving man.
Be a man. Be a brother.
Be a man. Stand up for each other.
Be a man who shows that he,
supports a woman and who she CHOOSES to be.
Hate divides hate divides hate divides love.
How much division till weve had enough?
