The Fear That Is Holding Women Back

So many women I know are freaked out by germs, And I lay the blame on the advertisers, Who will do anything to push the product, With 99% of their tricks not dirt or germ free. It does not register with them that children, Are kept off the park, Because they played on a women's fear, Do they not think that maybe a healthy immune system Needs a daily dose of good clean dirt, Not to mention the fun that goes with the rolling in it. Hell No, They even put kids in their adds, And wonder why the fear is spreading, Faster than germs ever did. Of course, the politicians should be sharing the blame, As they gave the advertising agencies free licence, To create carnage and tell lies with impunity, And let women wrap their kids in cotton wool, And spend more money on being germ free, Than on eating healthy. I live in hope the day is not too far away, When someone brings a law suit against the advertisers, For encouraging the fear, Before men too want to be germ free, And there is nothing left in the garden, But weeds.
