Thanks for your vote and review. I am humbled by the many positive responses I received. I, too, am a cat lover.
I've lived with one most of my life, starting from age 12 to today at 74. Life just wouldn't be the same and I'm convinced that they have been my emotional support animals through the ups and downs of my life.

This is a well-crafted bit of writing and I find the style of double rhyming quite endearing. The first stanza sets the tone of your voice. If I were to change anything, it would be the 5th stanza. I can imagine how difficult this verse was to craft, not only to promote the story, but also to find rhymes rather than near rhymes. But I am nit-picking. This is an excellent poem and I enjoyed reading and reviewing it. Good luck -Terry

I enjoyed your verse style which flowed well with some lovely rhyming and gently assertive demands about treating women as equals. Absolutely ideal for this contest and I wish you good luck! Debbie

I stood up all 5'4" of me. It seems we have one foot forward, two steps back. You think men would put up with it for two seconds if we told them they would be the custodial parent automatically as soon as the baby was born. Lets pass a law that says that, and then let's see their take on abortion. Karen

Thanks for the five star rating. Life is sacred and some men do a good job raising children on their own.

Hi, whoever you are!
I enjoyed your rhymed post, and yes I agree with everything you said.
When I was much
younger, women were considered homemakers, and housekeepers...but things have changed because times have changed...
Good luck in the contest!
Me!

Mrs. Major, I think we are from the same time period. In my time, the purpose of going to college for females was to become an educated housewife. The only other work for women was to become a teacher or a secretary. Thanks for your nice feedback.

I'll be honest with you, and say...It wasn't easy for me when I went to college...I worked during the day, and went to school in the evening...and I surely didn't do all of that to simply become an educated housewife.
Perhaps that wasn't the norm, but it was for me...

Comment from Thesis
I like the tone of this poem. It exemplifies what not to do, as well as, what mindset a male should have when treating women fairly and with respect, kindness, and love. I agree that we are all the same in the sense we should all be compassionate, caring, and cognisant of another's feelings. This archaic view that women are frail, unable to make decisions, and should not be treated equally is disgusting and needs to change NOW!

Comment from bob cullen
This is good, however I do offer two comments: First line, 'Don't boss her, don't cross her,' has a familiar ring to it. I think those exact words open a Waylon Jennings song. Sorry, I can't recall the song title. I don't know if that constitutes copyright. Secondly, second last verse, second line finishes with 'dirt' intended to rhyme with 'worth.' If you replaced 'dirt' with 'the earth,' the rhyme would flow perfectly.' Hope these suggestions help.

Hi, Bob. I didn't know the stanza with "boss"and "cross" in it were lyrics to a Waylan Jennings song.
The fact that dirt and worth don't exactly rhyme is not a problem, since they are considered a half rhume
But thanks for your feedback.
-
It wasn't Waylon,
i think it was the Travelling Wilberries, featuring, Waylon, Will Kris Kristofferson and Johnny Cash.

Thanks for the clarification
-
It might have been The Travelling Wilberry's. I wasn't trying to be critical in my comments. I really thought your poem was clever. Sorry if I offended.
