Woman was created from the rib of man | |
She was not made from his head | |
To top him | |
Nor from his feet, | |
To be trampled on. | |
She was made from his side, | |
To be equal to him | |
From under his arm | |
To be protected by him | |
From near his heart | |
To be loved by him. | |

[For another perspective, see one of my own poems: “What’s A Woman Worth?“, located on my Poems page. And, yes, I know both are probably incredibly chauvinistic, but please allow an older man his foibles. — KMAB] | |
