Equal To It
Most people will assume a girl can cook,
but men can make great chefs, while there are girls
who never at a cookbook took a look!
And some won’t wear a dress or fancy pearls.
We look at men and think ones super tall
are good at basketball. It might not be!
A girl is small. She can’t play sports at all?
Some girls love math! Some guys love poetry!
Old ways of thinking sometimes can be wrong.
We can’t assume a thing. Some girls today
are showing in the sport they love they’re strong!
HE wants to be a nurse; that makes him gay??
If you are good at it and love it too,
you’re equal to it, and it’s right for YOU.
