lyrics

Are there women, really?

Like man, woman is a human being
There exist two groups of individuals who are manifestly different
In clothes, faces, bodies, smiles, gaits, interests, and occupations

Females are half of humanity, and yet we are warned that femininity is in danger
But if femininity no longer exists, then it never did

Every human being is a unique, separate individual
Every human being is a unique, separate individual
Every human being is a unique, separate individual
Every human being is a unique, separate individual

What is a woman? A woman is not a man
What is a woman? A woman is not a man
This is more concrete than the abstract view of woman being a human being, as man is

Man represents both positive and neutral, leaving woman as only the negative

Being a man is no peculiarity
Man ignores his hormones and the fact of his anatomical glands
Humanity is male, and man defines woman
Not in herself but as relative to him
Humanity is male, and man defines woman
Not in herself but as relative to him

What is a woman? A woman is not a man
What is a woman? A woman is not a man
This is more concrete than the abstract view of woman being a human being, as man is

You think thus and so because you are a woman
(I think thus and so because it is true)
You think thus and so because you are a woman
(I think thus and so because it is true)
You think thus and so because you are a woman
(I think thus and so because it is true)

What is a woman? A woman is not a man
What is a woman? A woman is not a man
This is more concrete than the abstract view of woman being a human being, as man is
