Not A Toy!

Not A Toy!

They want our boys not to cry,

They want our girls not to try,


They want the girls to tame

But the boys - to rise to fame.


Films, ads, magazines that you see,

Wow! All the sensual ladies you fancy!


But when it comes to men,

They are always, everywhere, expected to score a perfect 10!


They objectify women as if women are merely things,

They also typify men, as if men were stronger beings.


Do you think this helps us to grow?

What exactly do they want us to know?


And that's why we have a message for them,

Stop objectification, discrimination and this shame!


Women or men, let them grow, smile and thrive…

And this is a society we really need to revive!
