A thought for a transgender

[PoeticZoe]

Hey I didn't write this nor do I know who did but it is an amazing poem about the feelings ever transgender feels


FOR EVERY GIRL WHO IS TIRED OF ACTING WEAK
WHEN SHE IS STRONG, THERE IS A BOY TIRED OF
APPEARING STRONG WHEN HE FEELS VULNERABLE.

FOR EVERY BOY WHO IS BURDENED WITH THE
CONSTANT EXPECTATION OF KNOWING EVERYTHING,
THERE IS A GIRL TIRED OF PEOPLE NOT TRUSTING
HER INTELLIGENCE.

FOR EVERY GIRL WHO IS TIRED
OF BEING CALLED OVER-SENSITIVE, THERE IS A
BOY WHO FEARS TO BE GENTLE, TO WEEP.

FOR EVERY BOY FOR WHOM COMPETITION IS THE ONLY
WAY TO PROVE HIS MASCULINITY, THERE IS A
GIRL WHO IS CALLED UNFEMININE WHEN SHE
COMPETES.

FOR EVERY GIRL WHO THROWS OUT
HER E-Z-BAKE OVEN, THER IS A BOY WHO WISHES
TO FIND ONE.

FOR EVERY BOY STRUGGLING NOT
TO LET ADVERTISING DICTATE HIS DESSIRES,
THERE IS A GIRL FACING THE AD INDUSTRY'S
ATTACKS ON HER SELF-ESTEEM.

FOR EVERY GIRL WHO TAKES A STEP TOWARD HER LIBERATION,
THERE IS A BOY WHO FINDS THE WAY TO FREEDOM
A LITTLE EASIER.

This is really pretty.

I'm totally that bluntly emotional guy, so I found this very real. Thank you for sharing!

This is amazing and I swear I've seen this before! I was thinking of writing something like it, than I came across this a while ago, and was like "oh, someone already did" I love it, and it really is true! I want my E-Z Bake Oven xD
