They say: "You fight like a girl!" 

The boy hangs his head.

"Fight like a girl" should be a compliment,

but it's an insult instead.


They say: "You throw like a girl!"

The girl wants to cry.

Because throwing is something only boys can do,

especially aiming high.


They say: "You care like a girl!" 

The boy stifles his feelings.

Because feeling things makes you weak,

and that's not at all appealing. 


They say: "You run like a girl!"

The girl who tries so hard

is being beaten down.

She's played her last card. 


"Fight like a girl."

"Throw like a girl."

"Care like a girl."

"Run like a girl."


Well, battleships are named after girls.

Tornados are named after girls. 

Planets are called 'she'.

Stars are called 'she'.


Battleships destroy.

Tornados wreck.

Planets conquer.

Stars shine.


Yes, I:

-Fight 

-Throw

-Care

-Run

-Talk

-Sound

-Play

-Destroy

-Wreck

-Conquer

-Shine
