You ask a girl to behave.
You scold her for wearing a short dress.
You taunt her for laughing a little too freely,
for daring to live a little carefree.
But have you ever asked a boy to keep his eyes straight?
Or told him not to treat women like public property —
and to accept her as a human?
Have you ever asked him to let her be?
to leave her alone,
to respect her space?
Why don't you teach him to cheer and encourage when a girl succeeds —
Instead of whistling when she walks down the street?
You say we can't do anything on our own.
Let me open your eyes:
We are ten times happier and more successful
without you — or any boy.
And honey, FYI:
Not every Cinderella needs a Prince Charming to save her.
