That one time someone told me it's not that deep and I absolutely lost my mind.
You say all black lives matter, they say all lives matter.
But it's not that deep.
You say stop using our culture to make profit.
You say because I am a female I should be ready to be married by 30?
You say depression is all in my mind?
You say I should pray to God to forgive me my sins? What if I can't forgive myself for my sins?
You say I am not allowed to touch myself because it is bad but it's okay for a guy to touch me?
You say stop using "mentally challenged" every time a white man shoots up a couple of people.
They say it's not that deep.
You say lets talk about institutional racism and white privilege as irrational.
You say why are women told to "chill" when they talk about issues that makes them uncomfortable ?
You say are relationships overrated?
You say so what did they do to make up for slavery?
What did they do after they went out on their ships and took over lands that were already inhabited? When will the present generation of white kids understand that their privilege is irrational ?
When will they learn that "not seeing colour" is part of the problem when the system only sees you as an option to tick. As a category to add to the company diversity check list.
You say "I wonder if my white male friends think how their choice of dressing will affect the looks they get from old folks before they go out?"
You say "I am not a feminist but I believe every girl should have the same opportunity as a boy, no matter what country she was assigned to by birth".
"I am not a feminist but..."
...stop selling women with your products.
...stop calling girls sluts for sleeping with numerous amounts of guys.
...stop praising guys for doing the same things girls are told not to do.
...stop calling me high when I question the meaning of life.
You say let me do what I want with my hair.
You say take your standards of beauty and shove it where the sun doesn't shine.
You say men cry and that is okay too.
You say stop hyper masculinity and the alienation of feminine men.
You say what is wrong with femininity anyways?
You say why am I not allowed to question that the earth is round? When you question if there is a God.
You say why are we told to live, love, pay bills & die?
