Author's note: Okay, lots of historical facts in here. Please correct any if they're not already. Thanks.

Also, don't take this personally. Not all girls are like this, I know. It's the fact that even some girls are like this that I can't stand.

Whatever Happened to Miss Independence?

--

The WEIU was founded in 1877

(Women's Education and Industrial Union)

It supported working women, including

legal aid and instructional courses

--›

In 1910, Washington State voted for woman suffrage

--›

Michigan's, Kansas', Oregon's and Arizona's male electorates approved

state constitutional amendments for our right to vote in 1912

--›

1920, on August 26, a constitutional amendment

was adopted when Tennessee ratified it,

granting woman suffrage in

all states of the United States

--›

Women were first admitted into the navy in 1985

after much fighting, marching and determination

--›

Over the years people have died fighting for

the independence of women

for our equality to men

and our right to vote

All that hard work, just to get what

we deserved in the first place

--

Yet girls nowadays just throw it aside

as if it doesn't matter at all

I see women relying on men to live their lives

they survive only on the knowledge that they're pretty

No one dares to be themselves anymore

because otherwise people might not like them

--›

Not bothering with education,

or any common sense for that matter,

girls don't want to break a nail

They can't be "stuffed" to do anything important

That work is for the men -

(everyone knows that!)

--›

Like all the hard work is just forgotten

as if our only goal in life

is to be what the guys want us to be

and to always look good

Hoping that one day we'll marry a man who can

Give us all the money we want

--›

It Doesn't matter to girls nowadays

if their boyfriends

(or even husbands for that matter)

are only with them to get into their skirts

As long as they're popular and people like them,

it's all good

(Because that's all that really matters now, right?)
