I am sick of patriarchy and what it is doing to our societies worldwide. It has skewed science, art, literature, civil liberties, sexuality, religion, and justice in so many ways. Now don't go thinking that I am some kind of man hater, because many of my best mates are male. But they, like other males, are caught up in a world that affords them certain privileges.

I watched a film on public television yesterday that showed a semi-nomadic group of people in the wilds of Iraq that herd sheep and goats for a living. They were moving their animals up into the snow-covered mountains. I was taken aback by the ways that they handled their animals... grabbing them by the throats, throwing them into the rivers that they were crossing. I sensed that this is somehow connected to patriarchy and religion, a religion that relieves them of responsibility for what happens on this planet in a societal system that allows them to behave as they wish.

I'm going to take a minute to remind all of the good people out there that yer daddy didn't spit you out of the head of his dick when the time came for you to breathe air.

Amerika, sure it's a little better, but still, I am assaulted with negative images of womensex every day. Not to mention that I have to deal with my mate's eager jerking off habits. Hey, still, you can't get too pissed at me for being pissed because I am a pansexual with a history of lesbianism, attracted to women, that likes porn.

I don't fit in.

I'm the kind of person that many in Amerika hate. I'm the kind of person that folks in other countries would venerate, and that some would kill because I appear to be female and rise up against male tyrrany.

So why am I pissed?

I don't get the opportunities that males get. I have to make them. I have to make men see past my large tits in order to take me seriously and not just as another possible fuck. I have to work twice as hard to get my voice heard, and then I am mocked because surely, my intellect and experience are inferior to the male.

All because I have the power to bring you into the world. And I have the power to *not* bring you into the world.

Do I sound like a god?
