I Fight Like A Girl (author unknown)

I FIGHT LIKE A GIRL

I fight like a girl who refuses to be a victim.
I fight like a girl who's tired of being IGNORED and HUMORED and BEATEN and PUT DOWN.
I fight like a girl who's sick of not being taken seriously.
I fight like a girl who's been pushed too far.
I fight like a girl who OFFERS and DEMANDS RESPECT.
I fight like a girl who has a lifetime of ANGER and STRENGTH and PRIDE pent up in her girly body.
I fight like a girl who doesn't believe in FEAR or SUBMISSION.
I fight like a girl who knows that THIS BODY and THIS MIND are MINE.
I fight like a girl who knows that YOU ONLY HAVE AS MUCH POWER AS I GRANT YOU.
I fight like a girl who will never allow you to take more than I offer.
I fight like a girl who FIGHTS BACK.
So next time you think you can distract yourself from your insecurities by victimizing a girl, THINK AGAIN.

She may be ME and I FIGHT LIKE A GIRL.
