Why Can't a Woman Be More like a Man?

~Why We Won't Have a Woman President

Louisa Burgess
Why can't a woman
be more like a man?

What is it that men
don't like about that?

Why can't a girl be
just as smart?

Why can't a woman
laugh uproarously?

Why can't a woman
be tough and strong?

Why can't she
fight for what she wants?

Why can't a woman
be right and he be wrong?

Why can't a woman
be president?

What is it that men
don't like about that?

    Damn right! A woman CAN be whatever she chooses to be as long as she takes responsibility for it. Good job!
