MY femininity is my dignity, I guide it with jealousy. MY femininity is my special privilege, I don’t take it for granted. MY femininity is my right, It shall not be trampled on. MY femininity is a dignified grace, I carry it with pride. MY femininity is my voice, I speak out against violence and oppression. MY femininity is influence, I create the future I want. MY femininity evokes valour’ I am an engine of growth and development. MY femininity is the badge of courage I wear, I am an epitome of verve and vitality. MY femininity is life itself MY womb is the storehouse of creation So, I deserve to be respected! I deserve to be heard!
