Saturated with sex stereotypes gender roles reinforce inferiority
  Exploiting anatomy, exploiting sexuality, preying on insecurities
  Force fed proper mannerisms, treated different from the date of birth
  Raised as men's servants who should never question their own sense of worth
    Conditioning children with anorexic plastic of 'perfect' feminine traits
  Learning how to hide any blemishes, meeting standards men create
  Painting flesh like painting a picture that subliminally suggests
  To equally conditioned men that women are just there for sex
  Striving to achieve the super model image the media project
  Spending countless hours enhancing a look instead of self respect
  Eating disorders insuring beauty and endangering health
  When living life behind a mask you cant expect to know yourself
  When women are taught one way to act and men are taught another
  The ability to accept and tolerate is absent from each other
  Without understanding or communication the result too often is
  Bigotry by ignorance unintended prejudice
  Any man that would treat a woman as property you keep
  is nothing but an ignorant bigot that can only see skin deep
  having a relationship of inequality, treating a woman as a possession
  taking advantage of devotion using emotions as a weapon
  violating another's personal rights as if they never mattered
  every day that begins with this conditioning ends with another woman battered
  taught how to act, taught how to think
  taught how to feel, told by another gender
  sexist appeal dehumanizes women molding an image
  making the body more important then what the person is
  taught to pretend, taught to please
  taught to conceal, told that you must surrender
  sexist appeal demoralizes men, distoriting their view
  making the body the most important part to pursue
  initiating a chase that relies on deception
  hoping persistant efforts will overcome rejection
  conditioned by images lusting for sex
  haunting men's thoughts of who they'll bed next
  taught how to act, taught how to think
  taught how to feel, told by another gender
  sexist appeal dehumanizes women by abusing sexuality
  another person's body shouldn't be viewed as a trophy
  taught to pretend, taught to please
  taught how to feel, told that you must surrender
  sexist appeal demoralizes men, encouraging rape
  another persons body is never for anyone else to take
  treating a fellow person without any respect
  condemning behavior as if the woman asked for it
  society's distorted our judgement with what they suggest
  why take no for an answer when no really means yes
    [Woman's part]
  we've heard it all so many times before
  stop treating women like some trashy cheap whore
  or a virgin that must lead to a sterile life
  a surrogate mother under the disguise of the word wife
  they make the rules but yet they don't play fair
  forcing sexual stereotypes that make us all aware
  of every single one of our failures in the eyes of society
  telling me that I'm not quite what I'm supposed to be
  I'm not married with two children or single with a career
  I'm not drowning in some mortagage or living in financial fear
  I don't cower as I walk home all alone throughout the streets
  I refuse to be treated like a piece of trumped up meat
  I turn away from the billboards that extol the latest fad
  Of looking like a junkie in the Calvin Klein ad
  Now its time to get beyond all of our rage and pointing fingers
  To see through the lies no matter how much it lingers
    [Man's part]
  As long as I can remember ive been a victim of mans lies
  And in turn ive victimized women through ignorant naive eyes
  When overlooking personality in the person im seeing
  Then my attraction becomes the exploitation of another human being
  In my heart I know equality but conditioning affects my brain
  So without complete understanding oppression will remain
  For as enlightened as I may consider myself I still have much to learn
  And since actually achieving equality still is a concern
  I must open my mind to the opinions that women would suggest
  Because theyre the ones who understand sexual oppression best
  As a man im part of the problem that's something I must accept
  Unless through education I can evolve towards a mutual respect
  Everyone of us should realize how our struggle now relates
  And how as equals we can destroy what society dictates
  We can hopefully find a way to respectfully co-exist
  And then eliminate the biggest prejudice that exists
    [Both together]
  because this is not about man vs. woman or woman vs. man
  but human to human as we struggle to understand
  were living life suspiciously believing there's no one we can trust
  theyre dividing the population the system is destroying us
  profiting from this division and the line of thinking that's been bought
  if equality is ever to exist we have to unlearn what weve been taught
  bigotry by ignorance unintended prejudice
