I.would.Marry.Him

@Whayoutalkingaboot I think you have it all wrong my man. He said pussy cat... he wasn't degrading men. He was condenscending towards the disgusting pigs of this world. Not fine young men, the wretched fools who stand on a bodega spot( yes I am from NY) and harrass the women who are walking . The women may not be perfect at all times, which I think is where he was getting at when he said he uses the B word sometimes, but he damn sure knows when a respectful lady is in his presence.@magnate3

@1FLOt Yea yea, I hear what your saying, good lookin out. I'm from NY too I know exactly where hes coming from, the bodegas host some of the most perverted dogs.

Every woman in this audience just came LOL!!

@1FLOt : i believe he is talking about himself; he says he isn't perfect; he makes the mistake of using the word B**** to insult someone (possibly a womyn); which he acknowledges as being disrespectful. This entire poem is about how its NEVER ok to disrespect a woymn. not that you can pick and choose which ones "deserve" it.

-then again, as most poetry or art, it is up for interpretation. All I can say is, in my opinion, its not your place to decide who is and isn't a "lady".

So good. <3

I'd be lucky to find a man who understands the female experience half as well as Oveous does.

[juniormph]

@magnate3 So at first I read your comment @whayoutalkuingaboot and I was like hmm maybe he did take it too far, but i'll call every single one of those guys standin on the corner PUSSYS! Because, if you paid attention to it all, which im sure you did... you noticed how he explained who he was talking about.
