Is Female A Crime?

Part 1

Is Female A Crime?

To the Fathers
Are they truly your daughters? 
Would you watch
As she sinks to the ground 
As a punching bag
As a worthless slave
Would you say
That she's the greatest sinner
To be bloated out of the world with such shame? 

To the Uncles
Aren't they your nieces
They ones you came visiting with gifts
They ones you teased as your owns
Would you stand back
As they fall victims of senseless abuse
Weather at home or not 
As she doubts her path
As she crashes her dreams
Would you claim 
That she has no aim
To be hung as a toy
One who only bears the kids. 

To the brothers
You are the same as your sisters 
Same genetics 
Same blood
She laughed and played in you hands
Why do you let her cry and wail in another's 
You literally fought for her 
Why are you avoiding then defend her. 

To the lovers and husbands
In your home don't you have ladies? 
How did the head you crowned 
Become the one you want in a tray? 
How does beating and calling one names
Justifies correcting a grown lady? 
Can you force a Bull to mate with the same Doe twice? 
Then why do you want her to always to your tune dance? 
Blamed for everything 
From the sex of the child
To the child becoming something 
Let her eyes be your mirror 
Reflecting the fears and terror
You now tell the true, are you perfect?

The answer is straightforward NO. This is really a social question to answer in general.
