Not All Men

Not all men
Not all men but 99% of women
Not all men but too many women and children
Not all men cause not every man I see wants to hurt me

99% of women have been raped, sexually assaulted, or sexually harassed
Not all men, but every day there are more and more cases
Not all men, but women can’t speak up because of the backlash we get

“You were asking for it”
“What were you wearing?”
“Were you flirting first?”
“You probably sent mixed signals”

Not all men, but I was told I had “birthing hips” when I was 6
Not all men, but I was being catcalled at age 7
Not all men, but I was sexually assaulted by a boy in my own class when I was 8
I just wanted to get my favorite book from the library before school

Not all men but so many girls
Not all men, but 99% of women
Not all men, but now we have to follow a dress code because boys can’t control themselves
Not all men, but almost every women
Not all men though, right?
