Why is it that when I'm
antisocial in the morning
I'm "being mean" to my mother
if I ask
where
My brother's staying the night I'm
"having a fit"
But you find it perfectly
acceptable
when you hear my sister just put
makeup on 2 guys to say
"Well they must not be real men then"
There is such the double standard.
And it's not even a double
standard, it's so obscurred.
How can you feel you have the
authority - you and my mother both -
to tell me I only THINK I'm
a lesbian
because I'm afraid of having a boyfriend
Does that fall into your
nice category
your parent category
your acceptance category?
But it doesn't really matter
to you, because you're busy
asking me when I read through
your religious
right newspapers why I'm not
"more toleratnt"
Please.
That is revolting.
