Choosing
I am ashamed of my gender
And the things that they do
There’s something about my
Gender that is mentally sick
Now that is not an excuse
We all own our own choices
Why would a man choose misogyny
Why would a man choose rape
Why would a man choose to molest a child
Why would a man choose to enjoy killing
Why would a man choose to be a cunt
Why would a man choose to be a bastard
Why would a man choose to be a control freak
Why would a man choose to beat his wife
Why would a man choose to abuse his wife
Why would a man choose to abuse his children
Why would a man choose random mass shootings
Why would a man choose terrorism
Why would a man choose to make others fearful
Why would a man choose to be led by his cock
Why would a man choose to be egotistical
Why would the man reading this say
“Yeah but women do all these things too!”
Anyone who thinks this is gender confused
Everyone can choose what they want to be
Men choose to be the best at all the wrong things
Men by their very nature are harmful by choice
The few exceptions choose to be exceptions
What makes a man a real man?
Simply;
He does and is none of the bad things above
Purely by choice

I used to lump all as one. But over the years the good have proven they do outnumber. In that, I've been fortunate. We're it not for thoseyexceptions you write of, the healing would be that much harder. Ever grateful for the exceptions. Sending fierce hugs across the pond

I still believe that the good ones are the exception or at least they are in my experience :-((((((((

Honestly? ;) This is like a big spew of vomit down the page, and then:
"“Yeah but women do all these things too!”
Anyone who thinks this is gender confused
Everyone can choose what they want to be "
...and even more tinker-bell fairy dust sprinkled at the end :)))))
Strong depiction in this one, it all comes down to free will in the end!

Well said David! This is kinda how I felt when I was writing the poem #MeSorry last month. I was ashamed of my fellow men, even angry for being stigmatized because of men who can't grasp the concept that no means no. I truly think it is insane that I have spent most of my adult life single and alone while pigs somehow attract the women I have always wish I could love and respect. It boggles my mind! I shouldn't feel the need to apologize for how pigs treat women. I don't want to be untrusted for what other men have done. I'm not like them damn it! But nice guys finish last and in my case, I never got to the starting line...

we have both just seen too much - we go through life with our eyes and ears open wide and call a spade a spade - we are the silent minority :-)))))
thank you for your kindness :-))))

Men and women were programmed differently

Perhaps, as PoetSpeak pointed out, men and women are "wired differently", and when the physiological(emotional) aspects of behavior are considered, there does tend to be some gender bias regarding men as being more prone to aggressiveness / (violence), while women tend to be more gentle/nurturing.
....And, as you observed, there are exceptions to these displayed traits. However, your point about being able to make choices is definitely one that i agree with, absolutely! (unfortunately,though, there will always be some individuals that, for whatever their reasons, will continue to make choices that are horrible, and totally unacceptable....especially when it comes to violent acts of behavior)
David...much respect to you, mo Chara chotha`imid, in your choice to break the cycle of violence! Warm, tight, loving
HUUGGSSS----again....and....again....and....again....and..again...............(welll...you get the idea! )

I speak as I find and whilst I can come over as very cynical I think I am just a realist :-)))))))) Because I choose to be (lol)
