supposed to be a woman

You agreed unknowingly –
A long time before the touch.

They never tell you

That defiance

Or curiousity

Or compassion

Equates consent –

Only punish you
For not acting like a woman

Only prohibit you
So that you act more like a woman

So when they venture
To impress upon your person

Any girl wonders
Like they blame her for;
Whether it is her fault.
