Expect Equal Respect Lyrics

I'm sorry, I didn't realise

That it needs explaining?

Maybe what you should be asking

Is why you feel the need to question me

Is 50% a minority?

Is my credibility an anomaly?

How dare you treat this like a novelty

Your approval doesn't mean shit to me

Is 50% a minority?

Is my credibility an anomaly?

How dare you treat this like a novelty

Your approval doesn't mean shit to me

I long for the day

When it isn't mentioned

I long for the day

When it isn't questioned

Why must it be highlighted, like it makes a difference?

Must you be so ignorant, that this is all you notice?

I can't hide my bitter disappointment

At your flimsy grasp of enlightenment

I can't hide

I can't hide

I'm sorry, I didn't realise

That I need justification?

Maybe what you should be asking

Is how it feels to be questioned

I long for the day

When it’s no longer relevant

I long for the day

When it’s no longer a "selling point"

Why must it be highlighted, like it makes a difference?

Must you be so ignorant, that this is all you notice?

I can't hide my bitter disappointment

At your flimsy grasp of enlightenment

I can't hide

I can't hide

This shouldn't have to be a battle

This shouldn't have to be said

But I stand on level footing

I expect equal respect

This shouldn't have to be a battle

This shouldn't have to be said

I expect equal respect

Nothing more, nothing less

So I can’t hide my disappointment

When you reduce me to my sex
