Let’s check incarceration rates,

worldwide (and also in the States):

Who fills up our many jails?

You guessed it – it’s mostly males.

Why is that? Because they’re brutes?

Because of natural attributes?

Time we dare to stop and ask:

are men judicially harassed?

How d’you think we all have versed

if statistics were reversed

and WOMEN were the ones jailed more?

Feminists would go to war.

Why are blacks jailed more? Let’s face it:

It’s because the system’s racist.

Can we all claim that ergo

judges hate men more? Hell no.

We all assume that men are strong.

The patriarchy can do no wrong

to fellow men. It sounds so right.

So let’s ignore men and their plight.

Kids, meet confirmation bias:

it’s that nasty thing that ties us

to our preexisting views.

(so our brains won’t be confused).

This is why we all disdain

stats that prove men are in pain.

So send those men back to the slam

’cause people just don’t give a damn.

‘Tis a fact that our conclusions

are nothing more than brain illusions.

(Best not tell it to your buddies,

‘specailly those in social studies).
