Woman in a Man's World
Have you every wanted to put a gun in your mouth
Because perverted stragers stare down your blouse
And the very moment you bring up your spouse
The tone of conversation quickly heads south
You become a slut and are not only shunned
But publicly berated as eyes glare at you stunned
And if you dare take a drink to feel numbed
Whispers surround like ten sniper guns
First you're a slut, now an alcoholic
A woman cannot be alone just to frolic
And if you go home and try being honest
You're treated like a baby without its bonnet
You must cover up before you can leave
Because wearing cute clothes might arouse Steve
And if he's aroused you'll be no longer housed
A hoe is no housewife, as has been pronounced
Because perverted stragers stare down your blouse
And the very moment you bring up your spouse
The tone of conversation quickly heads south
You become a slut and are not only shunned
But publicly berated as eyes glare at you stunned
And if you dare take a drink to feel numbed
Whispers surround like ten sniper guns
First you're a slut, now an alcoholic
A woman cannot be alone just to frolic
And if you go home and try being honest
You're treated like a baby without its bonnet
You must cover up before you can leave
Because wearing cute clothes might arouse Steve
And if he's aroused you'll be no longer housed
A hoe is no housewife, as has been pronounced

d-d-d-d-dayum i dig this one! I can feel the frustration in your words. It appears you may have found a flow state while writing this as you presented your thoughts very clearly and poetically!
