Since childhood we have been taught,

To be strong and not to burst out.

Respecting and not hurting girls,

Because they are weak pearls.

Aggressive, Decisive, why only we are?

Submissive, Passive, it's their avatar.

Where dominance is boy's rule,

Sensitivity is just for fool.

Steeping pain behind the smiles,

Pretending, we are emotionally stabilize.

In order to be a passionate lover,

It's not important to be muscular.

We aren't carefree and casual,

Incumbencies haunt, that's inevitable.

To be a gentleman,

I choose attributes of women too.

Cooking, Washing, Cleaning, Why only we will do?

Can drive any vehicle, like they do.

Rather than being a princess behind the doors,

Want to be a queen who deals with the world.

Don't do this, don't do that.

Why so many barriers Dad?

Think what people will say,

They must change their mentality, shouldn't they?

Wearing floral prints and pink shade,

Is not my type, Black and Blue is my taste.

Dolls are for the showcase,

I like cycling, volleyball and skates.

Self reliance, social boldness is all I seek,

Higher education is my need.

It might boil your insecurities,

Still I want equal responsibilities.
