i believe this poem is saying how you can do things for love and no i do
not find it funny but the focus is particularly for the women to fall in
love with the correct men not with the one who will ask you to cut of your
hands.

This poem was not intended to be funny. Piercy is writing, once again,
about the way SOME men treat women. I admit that equality between men and
women has come a long way since the 60's, but there are some frames of mind
that will keep repeating as ignorance breeds ignorance.
I chose Marge Piercy as the poet to base my research essay on and now I'm
finding that I've made a really good choice as her poems all deal with real
issues in the world and aren't constrained by ryme or meter, and takes
advantage of the free-verse style. Perhaps this in itself is another
measure to pass along her messages of freedom and unconstraint by rules.
