"What A Woman Must Do" Ursula Rucker (Def Poetry)

this is very true and she is even saying it like it has happened to her.

She really understands and then she puts it in her own words and uses it to enlight other women to the truth of most men (not all, but a lot)

Damn I all most had tears with this one!!

wow....=)

yellow wall paper reference.

Love her allusion to Charlotte Perkins Gilman's Story, "The Yellow Wallpaper". Really brought the point home.

ima man and i understand
and she went hard on that

u must be a male (yes male not a man because a true Man understands) She has a life and unfortunately this is the life she lives DAILY abused by menwho don't know u, who employ u, and who promise to love and protect u. so get from out of ur sitcoma and understand that what she said is the life that women live DAILY not in the past and as long as there are fools like u in the world it is the future of our daughters as well.

i don't know who you're responding to, perhaps anastudio...?
I do know that your words reflect more on how you see things than who you might assume a "male" to be. The "abuses" you mention are far to vague to carry any weight.
I understand what she's feeling, but everyone can admit that most negative emotions -regardless of gender- are often self-inflicted.
Ms Rucker lost me when she brought up historical reference as though she's lived it, then again I don't tell women how to live.
