Don’t talk to her like that
She is so fragile
So innocent
Don’t play with her like that
She is so sensitive
So exquisite
Don’t yell into her ears
She is so quiet
So silent
Don’t pick her as the captain
She is too indecisive
So slow and weak
Don’t give her the ball
She is not going to catch it
So predictable that she will make us lose
Don’t let her fall
She gets easily bruised
So quick to make mistakes
Don’t let her play like me
Because then
She can win the game
Something I don’t want to see
Don’t talk to him like that
He is too strong
So independent
Don’t play with him like that
He is too athletic
So fast
Don’t speak softly in his ears
He can take anything in
So loud and clear
Do pick him as captain
He is so decisive
So quick to think
Do give him the ball
He will catch it
So predictable that he will make us win
Do let him fall
He would do anything to get the ball
So promising, so unafraid
Don’t let him play like me
Because then
He can’t win the game
Something I don’t want to see
