her several sides

Every woman has
an upside
and a downside,
and a girlfriend has
both. 
But don't figure
her out that easy!
Your girlfriend also
has a backside! If

you have a girlfriend, 
that is - check. 
You'll see.
I'm right.

If you don't, look
at the backside 
of every woman 
in the world. I have 
to be right about this, 
if you had one. She 
has a frontside, too - 
and you can combine 
sides for a nuanced 
view, with focus.
 
A lot of men check 
out the frontside 
upside on your 
girlfriend! She 
doesn't seem to 
mind. You get 
pissed! "Hey, pal!
Her eyes are up 
there!" "Pardon 
me, creep." he 
points out. "Her eyes 

are also
frontside
upside. Why 

did you assume I
eyed anything else?"

"Thank you!" she brightly 
explodes in exasperation,
with a look of rebuke
- to you!

"Wait" you think.
"Is the thanks
to me, the rebuke,
or...?" Or was it 
a look of reproach?

"You're welcome,"
you clarify heroically.
You prefer to look 
on the upside, but 
you're very aware 
of the downsides
all around you. 
She has hers, and 
it's fantastic

(front,
back
and
in-between)
