made me think of the way i was raised. i will be able to tell my father next time we chat that iit is his fault he raised me "like" a man. not a man. not gonna claim it. BUT.... many of my characteristics are given to men and rejected for women. but then, i think you truly get that one.

I was raised by my father a lot like that in that regard. I don't think it was intentional on his part but, I got the message anyway.

but, I understand the line in the song about being the man of the animal genus.

"I'm a man it's what kind of animal I am"

my gender is female but, I do not mind the terminology of Mankind.

I love the line:

"I'm the man in the fucking in the moon." what a fucking great line. owns it.

"I'm not the runt of the litter" another good line
