Hi.
My name is Female.
I was born to be a female.
I used to be a baby girl. A small princess.
Then I grew up.
From a girl to a woman.
Daughter. Sister. Wife. Mother.
I am a Female.
I am perceive as weak - never strong enough.
I cry silent tears.
I laugh. I smile.
I am a Female.
Sometimes I am broken.
Sometimes I am strong.
I am Female.
Sometimes I am used and then discarded.
I am a Female.
I have superpowers - I can carry another human inside my belly. For nine months.
I am a Female.
Sometimes people see me dependant.
Never to be left alone because I can't live alone.
Sometimes I am pampered - living a sheltered life because its believed that Female needs to be sheltered.
Other times, I get to accomplish a few dreams.
I am a Female.
I am strong - even in my weakest moment.
I bear scars. Visible and invisible ones.
Physical. Mental. Emotional.
I bear my scars like the strips of a tiger.
I come out and roar at the world.
Because I am strong.
I am weak...then strong.
In the darkness until I find the light.
I am a Female, strong and independent.
Let me cry.
Let me laugh.
Let me smile.
Let me dream.
Let me be weak.
Let me be strong.
Let me be me.
Let me survive.
Let me live.
Let me....fly free. Soar and above the skies.
I.am.a.Female.
