Pat Adams Poet Rhyme

Boys Will Be Boys

Boys will be boys is often said
A kind reference to naughty
Would this disparity then cause
Dudes to show action quite haughty

Yearning for female attention
By some catcalls and wolf whistles
Undermining the ladies who 
Get attacked by verbal missiles

Gentlemen, listen to me now
Each of you, must hear what I tell
Remember what you might be called
Such as this acrostic does spell!

Lindsay Laurie March 31, 2019 at 6:39 PM G'day Pat … a very sexist comment quoted years ago was - boys will be boys and girls will be mothers. Enjoyed once again Pat - Lindsay Pat Adams April 1, 2019 at 3:42 PM Thanks Lindsay! Somewhat genetically predisposed I guess! Keeping it a bay is the ticket!........pat
