Best Misogyny Poems

The other day
The same man 
Who told me that
Men are the superior sex
Also asked me if I could 
Be "less of a woman"
So that for once he could have
A "logical" conversation with me
Being the reasonable woman that I am
I responded with "Of course I can....t"...

There's a cold dark place 
Sylvia Plath has been inside 
A kind of sacrificial lamb
An experiment of sorts 
Misogyny for the masses
A Hitler for wives 
Dust that, rub this, 
Lunch is cold, you shall pay! 
Only one way out
Put the lunch in the gas oven
Warm...

“Why, if it isn’t my dear Cinderella,
That twinkle in your eyes, still bright as your ballroom days,
In your smile I still see the...

No, I'm not saying sorry
For standing up for me
And I'm done being worried
For saying what I need
If you can't handle the truth, then
You can leave 'cause I'm not movin'
'Cause we're fighting this battle
And refuse to be losin'
You ask, Can I relax?
Can I ignore it and...

To Him, No One is a Rank Stranger 

No one is a rank stranger
	hiding behind dark threats.
No one is a rank stranger
	concealing their cruel epithets.

Recognizing an identity
	that is unique-ly theirs.
Acknowledging an identity
	and a desire they wish to share.

Finding a common experience
	is the treasure he seeks...

i was good,
though i was born with mens eyes
crawling on my skin like ants, 
following me through the grocery store. 
i was good, i was 5 the first time 
i was told to close my legs, 
sitting on the couch the same 
way as my...

A Woman's Place

A woman's place,
    is where she stands.

And the same,
   goes for a man.

They can decide,
   what they shall do.

For God gave them freewill
   and means to choose.

Some will choose good.
   And some...

Am I as beautiful as they say?
Or are they blinded by my looks.
Sure im a woman,
But that’s all they know.
That my femininity is for them to behold,
My walk talk and glance,
All created for them,
And them alone.
Assuming romance over friendship,
Assuming I owe them something—
For what?
Glancing my...

You seem a bit too Monday for someone who used to sway with much colour
Wake, my dear, the day awaits,
And with it comes white shirts the colour of mud
and black jeans the colour of white shirts
for you to wring and squeeze and wring
– it’s a...

     Planned a pretty picnic, yet didn’t predict 
     Pigs begged - please eat us
     Allocated table had laid out a feisty feast
     Mince never been seen since

They fvck us
Calloused hands maim soft breasts
They call it genourous
When teeth sink in but don't break flesh
They like our scars
Til they're inflicted by another
They like our hearts
How easy it is to crush them
They make our youth up
Of babies we don't want
They say they love us
Looking...
