I love those stupid little instagram feminist accounts
I love their stupid little posts
These are things we know!
These are things that shouldn't need saying.

Until today,
The one I saw-
I wish I didn't see it.

SEX IS AN EXPERIENCE
         NOT A PERFORMANCE

And it was all decorated, all pink
Sparkly, cute
Happy
Fun

And my stomach dropped
My heart sank
And the stupid little voice in my head
Said, fuck you, no it isn't.
Sex is a game.
I cried a little after that.
I'm not a good feminist - I'm not even a woman.
But I stand by what I would never say.
Pink! Cute! Happy! Fun!
