前几天在微博上听到的一首歌。是蔡健雅唱的，但没有找到音频。

Dedicated to today’s women

Before I was five I was told that the lady sit with their knees together

That I should not play rough with my brother

That girls played house and pretend to be a mum or a wife;

Before I was ten I was told to help with the dishes

And I have to do things against my wishes

And that was less expected of a man;

Before I was twenty I was told I was fat

That nice ladies do not dress like that

That a salad for lunch is plenty

Blah blah blah blah.....

Before I was thirty I was told I had an expiration date

That I have to find a good mate

that was about the time I married;

Before I was forty I was told I have to be the best mother

Do well at my job and focus on my daughter

That I should still look like a thirty;

Now I am forty with a daughter grow in up so quickly

Who is soft and feminine and also tough and gritty

I will raise her to make her own rules

And be whoever she wants to be!
