>Why do so many such songs and poems have to be so anti women?

In the case of my posting, perhaps because it was written by a 13-year-old boy? (or at least passed on in the oral tradition by one}. What I was wondering was why I remember it, having heard it only once and that over 35 years ago.

Not posted to be anti-woman, but only for its historical significance to tomorrows folk researchers.
