But What is a Feminist Really?

There are times when I get fed up
With red and blue
Left and right
With picking a side
And being cast aside.
Sometimes I think my cries will never be heard.
My punches will never be felt.
There are times when I just love everything.
I am the ultimate humanist, almost to a fault.
I love humanity and therefore
I am in love with equality.
I do not see myself above anyone
But I am definitely not below anyone.
I am in love with my body.
My womb will never be a weakness
It's the thing that makes me strong.
If you don't have one that's fine.
Because you are still you
And that's all I'd ever want you to be.
Despite what I said I will admit that I am a Libertarian
But you are free to think for yourself.
Because the truth is, these things don't define us entirely
And being this thing doesn't mean you can't be that thing.
There is no one right way to live life.
But if I have a say in anything
I would say to live it to the fullest
Live life without absolutes
No matter who you are.
Black, white, man, woman
Just live and love and never hurt
Unless you had no choice.
I am in love with the spirit of humanity.
Despite the wrongs and faults
I can acknowledge positivity in imperfection.
It's a positivity I have to share with everyone.
Come out come out wherever you are!
Come out come out whoever you are!
I am a fighter for freedom and equality
I have strengths and weakness
Just like you
I am a Feminist
What are you?
