Why do they glare back at me when I tell them that I want to go bald?
Why do they ask me to straighten up my hair?
Or, go to a salon more often?
Why do they ask me to quit wearing my sandals and sports shoes?
Why do they ask me to be more feminine?

Why do they ask to get the scar on my face surgically treated?
Why do they ask me to lose weight and try to look hot?
Why do they ask me to get rid of my glasses?
Why do they ask me to stop using cuss words?
Why do they ask me to be more feminine?

Why do they ask me to talk softly?
Why do they ask me to learn to cook?
Why do they ask me to shut up in front of strangers?
Why do they ask me to look down while talking?
Why do they ask me to be more feminine?
