Well Prof. Higgins, I’ll like to bring you up to date <br />Mention of a woman need no longer get you into a state. <br />You’ll be surprised things have changed <br />Since Pygmalion was first staged. <br /> <br />No longer a woman’s anxious little hand <br />Is just waiting to wear a wedding band. <br />She has far too many interests <br />Other than her dresses and gloves. <br /> <br />A woman needs as much space <br />As you rightly said, even if just to laze. <br />By the way, when she call her friends <br />They just don’t talk of cars and gizmos to no end. <br /> <br />It’s no longer true that women can’t go out alone <br />And always need to be chaperoned. <br />Women too will rather have their tooth drilled <br />Than live with a man who is utterly selfish. <br /> <br />Get a man in your life and his idea of relaxation <br />Is just to sit in front of TV and serf channels <br />Men always cursed women for their bad timing <br />Even when she is being operated for medical emergency. <br /> <br />Hence, women too hesitate to let a man in their lives <br />And lead a life free of strife <br />Why can’t a man be like a woman? <br />Kind, patient and full of compassion. <br /> <br />Eliza rightly said, earth will still spin without you <br />No one is indispensable is really true. <br />Pickering too asked you, are you a man of character <br />Where women are concerned? Please give an honest answer. <br /> <br />Let’s face it; you too succumbed to her charm and grace <br />Don’t be fooled it was because you got accustomed to her face. <br />The battle of the sexes will go on <br />We still take the plunge, its more than just hormones <br /> <br /> <br />Pygmalion is A Play written by Bernard Shaw on which the movie <br />My Fair Lady was based.<br /><br />Mamta Agarwal<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/are-you-listening-prof-higgins/
