JUST A THOUGHT ABOUT PISSING

JUST A THOUGHT ABOUT PISSING
Steven Kain

 

You have to ponder \ how much of a significance

In how we pee /shapes our experience

\ / as a gender

 

I argue it has less to do with gender roles

 

bunny holes                                                                     carrot sticks

wet                                                                                dry nips

Barbie dolls                                   or                               race cars

estrogen                                                                         testosterone

Venus                                                                              Mars

 

More to do with

Rather you pee

 

Sitting down                                 <                                 Standing Up

 

 

And it is because they are forced to huddle their asses over a cold toilet seat in public restrooms and to wait in long lines at sporting events that they will always feel oppressed. If given equal rights, salaries, respect, opportunity (not quite there yet but things are getting better) rest assured we can still feel superior in the way we pee. The least we can do is

Keep aim                  Clean up our messes                   Put the seat back down
