There are days when a boy thinks—if only I were a girl—so he wouldn’t have to wear his pain like an invisible wound no one cares to see.

Not because he doesn’t want to be a man, but because the world would allow him to fall—if only he were a girl.

— Sadia Hakim

Every boy has thought it, not for the absence of responsibility, but for the permission to feel—if only I were a girl.
