Men of the world, awake
It’s time for the hold to break;
A deadly hold of strangulation,
On half the world’s population
It all began with mighty Ben,
Who, like other good cavemen,
Went out with his wife to hunt,
Before they heard that ominous grunt
The wife said “Wife weak, Ben strong.
Wife afraid of doing something wrong.
Stupid wife go back to den.
Will you fight, Mighty Ben?”
Dumb Ben felt his pride grow,
Thus inventing the male ego.
He risked his life for livelihood,
The wife had lots of free food.
Thus began the deception,
And centuries of exploitation.
Lives of men kept getting worse,
While women ruled the universe.
But then came the biggest joke
Played by women on the men folk.
They imagined it’s a ‘male dominated world’,
And at poor men, this allegation hurled.
And that’s how the world came to be;
It’s out there for all to see.
Look at what we’re made to do!
If you can’t, I will show to you.
Men are the dominant sex, aren’t they?
They ‘get to’ go to work everyday.
They sweat and toil and earn the bread;
Until, one day, they drop dead
While the poor oppressed ladies
Are forced to be home at ease.
They learn to sing and dance and knit;
That’s all for which they are deemed to be fit.
The young men, if brought up right
Are fearless and will battles fight.
The meek girls, they are mere girls;
They’ll learn the arts and comb their curls.
And so it passed for many years.
We never even learned to shed tears.
Until a smart man thought “Oh dear,
Something fishy is going on here.”
He figured the whole conspiracy out,
And hatched a plan to reverse the rout.
He began a movement called the ‘Women’s Lib’;
His only weapon was his fountain pen’s nib.
‘Virginia Woolf’ was his assumed name,
And he earned quite a bit of fame.
He spit venom against the ‘evil men’,
And all through his fountain pen.
So just like there was Dumb Ben,
There were several dumb women
Who believed the word of Virginia,
That going to work was a good idea.
And so it came to pass,
That women want to surpass
The stupidity of our ancestors,
And toil hard with their sisters.
And hence, my fellow men and boys,
It’s time we raised our collective voice
And support the feminist movement too,
Cause that’s really the right thing to do.
Amen.
