Just because I have a net in my hair
Doesn't make me your servant
Just because I don't want to talk to you
Doesn't make me a hermit
Just because I don't have a thigh gap
Doesn't make me "fat"
Just because I can talk
Doesn't mean you can treat me like a gnat
Just because I wear what I want
Doesn't determine my consent
Just because you take me out
Doesn't mean I owe you a debt
Just because you want to
Doesn't mean I do
Just because you want me
Doesn't mean that I want you
Just because we're together
Doesn't mean that I've said "yes"
Just because I'm a woman
Doesn't mean I'm any less
