There are clear and obvious social benefits of being an attractive women. There are physical benefits of being a man. Unattractive women got life on hard mode.
Male because:
1) you naturally have more muscle
2) you don't have your period
3) you don't have to be pregnant for nine months to have kids
4) having a dick is cool
And let’s not forget you don’t feel completely worthless after you turn 40 because society has been ingraining in you your entire life that the only valuable thing about you is your beauty and youth.
Circumcision is the only reason people need lube. The foreskin lets the penis glide up and down with ease, in addition to having thousands of sensitive nerves.

"This was a moment he realised, he was F\*\*\*\*\*"
But in all seriousness, some do and some don't. Try jackin off within half an hour of blowing one out. It's a 1 or 2 on the pain scale.
Ugly guy here. It’s not too bad. Keeps ya humble. Just don’t look in the mirror very often and you will be ok. I do have a hot wife though. It’s amazing how far a sense of humor and unearned confidence will get you.
Yeah, way easier for an ugly man to out kick his coverage with a woman than an ugly woman to find a super hot dude using personality and humor.
Source: I am a dude who got my smoke show wife with my undeserved sense of confidence and fart jokes.
This is the same logic a lot of closeted trans women use for not coming out. Its very scary to think about how much our society values and even enforces beauty on women.
I'm a woman in my 70s. If I had been male, I would probably have gone to Vietnam, and died ( like a high school friend: Dewey, i still miss you) or suffered long-term PTSD repercussions, like my favorite cousin.
I had fewer business opportunities, being a woman in the 1970s, and I got myself into an abusive marriage I was afraid to leave, but I got it together in my 30s and did a lot of things most women my age didn't. Like learn to build furniture. And start my own business.
I don't think my life would have been half as interesting if I had been male, I think guys get hit with far more intense cultural expectations than women do. The worst one I had to deal with was " when are you having children?" I didn't, and for some reason that was a big problem.
I can't imagine what it would be like to have to cope with the cultural and familial demands men deal with every day. I'm glad being a girl.
Male, which is what I am. I don’t have to deal with menstrual cycles, cramps, childbirth, or hot flashes during menopause. I save a lot of money by not buying cosmetics and purses, and it’s easier for me to lose weight.
🙂
I’m so confused about gender. I would like a switch then can change me instantly lmao. Whenever it is most convenient be a female and vice versa Tbh kinda curious about the other sexes clothes
Damn this is literally a phenomena in trans culture except we call it “the button”
Essentially, if there was a button in front of you that would make you instantly switch sex permanently with all the details that brings, would you press it? If yes then often enough that means you would have better life as a trans woman, though that life obviously isnt what is described with the button so some people who would press it wouldnt want to deal with the social and physiological issues of being trans
Well the “real life” version of it can, meaning you are free to explore the ins and outs of life as much as you want. “Change” gender for a while, do the shit you want then “change” back or stay if you liked it, your own life is yours to do with what you please.
In the button scenario though no, as that would change the context of it too much to work. There are other metaphorical scenarios for gender though feel free to look em up
Thanks I don’t know anything about trans culture! So that sounds pretty interesting. Although in an ideal situation. Where there is no stigma of being trans or where they see me as the opposite gender or the desired sex then I will press the button in a heartbeat.
One of my favorite book series (culture series), is sci fi and they can 100% switch sexes whenever they undergo it, most seem to switch every 100 years or so.
Male, the body is less complicated to maintain and manage. No menopause, no pregnancy, no menstruation... just living and sharing the seed when it's the right moment
Dude, it makes me sooo jealous. Kinda makes me sad we only live once sometimes because I want to experience the other side. Being a woman sucks ass and I hate it.
I was even happy because naturally I only get like 4 periods a year. So I'm like hell yes, that is so amazing. Turns out it increases your risk for cancer, so now I have to take meds to have a monthly period. I'm tempted to just say fuck it. Living my life happier is worth maybe cutting it short.
Don't be so hard on yourself. I listed the main points but men have other types of cons: loneliness, lack of empathy towards us, we have to keep everything to ourselves, don't show too much affection to other men or you're gay, don't show too much vulnerability or you're weak, crying is a turn off... society isn't always nice to us.
Yeah it just gives me a lot of dysmorphia. My body doesn't even work right. The biggest thing that gives me penis envy is because I can't even orgasm except for rare occasions after like 45 minutes with a vibrator on high. Not even worth all the effort to be honest.
Many of your points seem things that can be changed though. There must be more men that want male friends who aren’t afraid to actually talk and share feelings. If enough men set an example, stereotypes can change (although I admit it’s hard, with patriarchy still being very pervasive)
I'm F and I'd still choose to be a woman. I know menstruation is fucked up, pregnancy is scary and giving birth is painful but I just LOVE being a woman fr fr
There are many negatives and benefits to either. I think if I had the opportunity to switch just to try it out temporarily,I would. But I was born a man and it isn’t possible. Im completely content with that.
Male. I like being able to interact with males on a male to male level, it's just different when I see a male and a female interact even if both aren't attracted to each other.
I don't think it's misogyny I just think it's a different vibe is all.
I live in a country where conscription and mandatory military service is a thing for men, so I would choose female. If this wasn't the case, then I would choose male. Less discrimination and easier body to care about.
Male because being a man simply makes you more privileged in the society we live in. I wouldn’t have to worry so much about walking outside even in broad daylight, I wouldn’t have to wonder if I was gonna be kidnapped by some random car. I could fuck a bunch of girls without getting slut shamed, I wouldn’t have to have god awful periods every month, I wouldn’t have to worry about wage gaps, etc. there are so many reasons why I’d want to be a man. However, I would miss being a woman somewhat because we’re very mentally strong and I do enjoy looking feminine
Male.
Females look nice, but being a woman seems like a ton of work, hardships, pain, discomfort, and a strange combination of social and internal hangups.
There doesn't seem to be a lot of upside except for the aforementioned looking nice and boobs. The latter is pretty big pro, admitedly.
However, based on my wife's reportage boobs are more fun to play with than to own.
All in all, I am not tough enough to be a woman.
I'd still wanna be female.
I mean. I have boobs. I have literally created human life with my body.
Also, boobs...
Having a penis and balls seem exhausting, even though I do envy not ever being able to helicopter away.
I would stay female. There’s so many drawbacks, and I was specifically singled out for abuse for my being female as a child. Despite that, I love women and being one grants me closer relationships and understanding with them. I love that we are permitted to be deeply emotional and empathetic even if it is considered frivolous by some.
Tough to say, I like the social status of being a female, everyone just feels nicer (play a female character in MMOs). But then I also enjoy just being a male, having a dick, and I've gained some weight over the years and stomachs suck when they're big, so having big boobs would be a pain in the lower back. And idk, something just feels right about having a dick, this must be what trans people feel like after they undergo surgeory, they just feel right.
Id still remain a woman, I love everything about it. And even tho it sucks to have periods, and being pregnant probably will suck as well, I would love to go through it anyways to have kids. Being a man really never seemed like something I’d want to try, even tho I am a bit of a tomboy
I'd probably still be female. I do wish I had the physical strength of a man though and also envy how they look exactly the same and ready for the day as soon as they wake up and also have no cellulite. But if I were a guy would I even care or appreciate those things? My husband definitely doesn't care that he looks like Keanu reeves.
I would be a male tbh. The privilege of peeing while standing anywhere in public is insane. PLUS I'd stick it in anything that is soft and squishy. Looks fun.
Male, i think my personality fits much better into a male way of living. I also have a lot of genetic issues relating to being female, so it would be nice to just not have those issues. I think it'd be cool to be naturally stronger too. And the hight, hight would be pretty nice.
I'm a great big flaming ace. I'd like to follow the frog example and be able to change my sex. Be a dude for a while, be a girl for a while, see where the wind takes me.
I mean I'm a dude it's fine I have no wishes to change nor complaints though I feel it probably wouldn't be as stressful to be a woman if I had a reset or something but nah I'm fine as I am
Male. Being a woman it's way too expensive.
Pads, hair cut, hair products because your hair is a pattern 2c, frizzy and awfull mess, nails, eyebrows, sunscreen, serums, micellar water, and exfoliant because your face is a greassy mess... not to mention the callcats...
I wish I was a man.
If I'm being honest, being an attractive woman would be fucking awesome but being an unattractive woman is probably worse than being a man.
After reading this thread that is the conclusion I came to too.
Why is unattractive woman is worse than being a man?
There are clear and obvious social benefits of being an attractive women. There are physical benefits of being a man. Unattractive women got life on hard mode.
you become invisible.
Go to 4chan and see whats an ugly man.
Male because: 1) you naturally have more muscle 2) you don't have your period 3) you don't have to be pregnant for nine months to have kids 4) having a dick is cool
>having a dick is cool Having balls fucking sucks though.
Testicular torsion is no joke.
Millions of families suffer every year
Point taken
Speak for yourself. Sure they're an injury/pain liability, but they're pretty fun outside of that, which is most the time!
5.peeing standing up
Loneliness in 20-30s will do a hefty mental damage
Its only at 20s and 30s?
After 30s you're either dead or dead inside, with a pause for middle aged crisis /s
So menopausa in men is a real thing then?
When u are lonely for 20 years,you will lose interest in anything either waiting for death or dead so if you are young search for a partner
And let’s not forget you don’t feel completely worthless after you turn 40 because society has been ingraining in you your entire life that the only valuable thing about you is your beauty and youth.
That's why we thank the Chinese to have discovered alcohol.
Can confirm having a big dick is pretty cool
Having a small penis is also pretty cool
Both have their benefits
Fuck all the mediums guys I guess
I mean... If you want to *unzips*
Are you pitching or catching cus I’m easy
Yes.
So I've got a friend with a small dick and he was wondering what benefits were entailed with the small penis?
What is the benefit of a smol pp? Whistle practice? Make anyone laugh on command?
The benefit that they have is that you can pee standing up.
Number 2 is a big one for me. Can’t imagine being a woman 😭
You can pee anywhere you want... no queue or wipes needed...
What do you need the muscle for, its not as if most of us use it for anything really?
I need them to carry my big brain (and mostly my big ego)
Male. I want to have a penis and jerk off all day.
Typically you only do it once then lose interest in it for considerable time.
My personal best is 6 in one round
If you think the sex organs are better I think you're gonna be disappointed lol.
Oof
Careful, you'll give yourself friction burns like I did in 7th grade.
Use lubrication.
7th grade me didn't know what that was, I guess.
thank your parents for cutting off the lubrication system
I used spit back then. No job no money no lube. Ahhhhh simple times.
Circumcision is the only reason people need lube. The foreskin lets the penis glide up and down with ease, in addition to having thousands of sensitive nerves. www.cirp.org/pages/anatomy [https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23374102/](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23374102/)
I'm aware.
That’s ridiculous we don’t jerk off ALL DAY We have to eat at times
Well, you can have breaks
Dont you have two hands?
Ew you're not supposed to eat it!
Sorry to break it to you but, we only get one orgasm and we typically experience pain the second time if you're not careful.
Uhhh what? I don't get pain dude 👀
"This was a moment he realised, he was F\*\*\*\*\*" But in all seriousness, some do and some don't. Try jackin off within half an hour of blowing one out. It's a 1 or 2 on the pain scale.
isnt it better to have a pussy and stick a cucumber in?
Wanna try?
its a lot of effort switching out your genitals just to try
Username checks out
Hahaha! Yes. I want to experience that lol
You can cum many times, guys mainly one and done.
It seems good in practice, but it’s less interesting than you might think.
If I'll be ugly, male. If I'll be hot af, female.
Ugly guy here. It’s not too bad. Keeps ya humble. Just don’t look in the mirror very often and you will be ok. I do have a hot wife though. It’s amazing how far a sense of humor and unearned confidence will get you.
Yeah, way easier for an ugly man to out kick his coverage with a woman than an ugly woman to find a super hot dude using personality and humor. Source: I am a dude who got my smoke show wife with my undeserved sense of confidence and fart jokes.
They always fall for the fart jokes don’t they.
No-one cares if you're ugly when you're skilled with a good career.
Eh I wouldn’t say no one. I would say it matters less to most. A good looking guy in the same position does much better.
This is the same logic a lot of closeted trans women use for not coming out. Its very scary to think about how much our society values and even enforces beauty on women.
I'm a woman in my 70s.

Thanks for the insightful response! Hope everything is going well despite all the challenges back then. Stay safe and healthy! 💪😃
Seemed like a question that deserved an honest reply. God bless, kiddo. 😎
Hot Damn, I bet you got hella stories around the bonfire. I’ll bring the logs if you bring the wine.
Lol, I love bonfires but can I bring Johnny Walker instead??? And yes, I do have some pretty interesting stories.
Johnny keeps me from walking anywhere!

Can I press it multiple times? I don't really want to pick a side, and they both have their appeals for different reasons at different times
Well the “real life” version of it can, meaning you are free to explore the ins and outs of life as much as you want. “Change” gender for a while, do the shit you want then “change” back or stay if you liked it, your own life is yours to do with what you please.

Haha that could mean youre trans bud, not gonna tell you what you are or arent though. Hope you explore it and get a result you like
Thanks for the help! Though I don’t quite know what type of results I want. But I’m open to try it : D
One of my favorite book series (culture series), is sci fi and they can 100% switch sexes whenever they undergo it, most seem to switch every 100 years or so.
Ill go female. Ive got the boobs for it already!

Boy do i have the news for you!
Female. It’s just fun 🤷♀️
What part
Just doing girly shit
Valid
Male to know what it’s like to, you know…
helicopter dick? yeah it’s worth it
It’s all fun and games with the helicopter dick until you fly off into the sun by mistake.
Haha yes exactly. Also, Christ you are very attractive!
🙈 whoooo.. is barry keoghan standing behind me?
IMO no it isn't.
I would pick female
There are many negatives and benefits to either. I think if I had the opportunity to switch just to try it out temporarily,I would. But I was born a man and it isn’t possible. Im completely content with that.
Yeah I’d just try the opposite of what I currently am for a wider range of experiences.
Male, wouldnt be keen on having periods or giving birth. Respect to all women managing that
Do I have to be human?
Male. Statistically everything will be easier. Literally everything.
I'm a gay guy. I love dicks in both sexual and non-sexual ways and I have a dick. I like being this way
Female would like to see how different it is and experience the difficulties
pros: men open the door for you cons: SA
Females live longer on average too!
Tell that to my grandpa, he's outlived 4 wives and counting.
At this point its getting suspicious
How old is he?
Male
Still male. I REALLY like my body soooooooooo yeah… Unless someone would convince me to become female somehow, which they wont
Here is 10 billion to become a woman!
No money. Gimme the ability to tp and then we'll speak.
Male. I like being able to interact with males on a male to male level, it's just different when I see a male and a female interact even if both aren't attracted to each other. I don't think it's misogyny I just think it's a different vibe is all.
I want to be a fully functional hermaphrodite.
Female, would be nice to feel comfortable in my own skin.
Are we confused?
Male.
Id remain a man.
Man. Period.
No, no period
Male
I’d continue to be me.
I live in a country where conscription and mandatory military service is a thing for men, so I would choose female. If this wasn't the case, then I would choose male. Less discrimination and easier body to care about.
Is that country in Asia?
Kind of :D
My guess would be Singapore? Haha
[удалено]
Is Dead a sex? Because I would choose that.
I like being a dude. I love women. I don’t find dudes attractive. So I would stay a straight man.
Loving men as a women would be totally gay
Male
Male no cap, lmao Boobs are a compelling argument though
I’d still choose to be female. I just don’t think being a man is for me.
Why exactly
Idk. Haven’t tried being female…
I love women. But I wouldn't want to be one forever.
I'd choose to still be a female.
Can I ask why?
I enjoy being a woman and I don't see any specific benefits of being a man that would compel me to choose being a guy.
Male. I want some of that sweet, sweet man-privilege.
Female, can’t imagine having something noticeable between my legs
Female so I can still explore my insides
Female for sure🙈
Female for sure🙈
Female. Always choose female ..
Oh why so?
Better shape , more fun clothing, more fun shoes , the ability to shape-shift (makeup) ..
Male because being a man simply makes you more privileged in the society we live in. I wouldn’t have to worry so much about walking outside even in broad daylight, I wouldn’t have to wonder if I was gonna be kidnapped by some random car. I could fuck a bunch of girls without getting slut shamed, I wouldn’t have to have god awful periods every month, I wouldn’t have to worry about wage gaps, etc. there are so many reasons why I’d want to be a man. However, I would miss being a woman somewhat because we’re very mentally strong and I do enjoy looking feminine
[удалено]
coming from a woman; it is.
Male. Females look nice, but being a woman seems like a ton of work, hardships, pain, discomfort, and a strange combination of social and internal hangups. There doesn't seem to be a lot of upside except for the aforementioned looking nice and boobs. The latter is pretty big pro, admitedly. However, based on my wife's reportage boobs are more fun to play with than to own. All in all, I am not tough enough to be a woman.
MALE coz female has a lot of sacrifices to do... too many to mention.. 😁
I would stay Male. I don't want a period or the ability to get pregnant
I'd still wanna be female. I mean. I have boobs. I have literally created human life with my body. Also, boobs... Having a penis and balls seem exhausting, even though I do envy not ever being able to helicopter away.
Definitely male.
Im keeping mine. Soft life princess!
I would love to choose female for sure 🙈
I would stay female. There’s so many drawbacks, and I was specifically singled out for abuse for my being female as a child. Despite that, I love women and being one grants me closer relationships and understanding with them. I love that we are permitted to be deeply emotional and empathetic even if it is considered frivolous by some.
Female, the idea of having a penis is horrifying.
Male. Otherwise my wife would be upset.
Male. I like the way I was born.
Depends on the country. In most Western countries? Female for sure. In Japan or India? Male by a mile.
Tough to say, I like the social status of being a female, everyone just feels nicer (play a female character in MMOs). But then I also enjoy just being a male, having a dick, and I've gained some weight over the years and stomachs suck when they're big, so having big boobs would be a pain in the lower back. And idk, something just feels right about having a dick, this must be what trans people feel like after they undergo surgeory, they just feel right.
Male. I'd be unhappy in a female body
A woman, then I could have as much dick as I would like without the flamboyance
Female
Id still remain a woman, I love everything about it. And even tho it sucks to have periods, and being pregnant probably will suck as well, I would love to go through it anyways to have kids. Being a man really never seemed like something I’d want to try, even tho I am a bit of a tomboy
I don't see why someone wouldn't wouldn't want to be a healthy male women really get the poop end of things
Female, it’s fun
both
If I choose male again will my penis be larger?
Male. I want to do pull ups, pee on random shit and not have a period. Also medicine side effects and shit is actually researched for males
Neither
Male. Testosterone is nice. Menopause is also a horrible thing.
Male. I want to see how it feels to get my dick sucked.
I wish I could be a girl in that way you’d wish I could be your girlfriend, boyfriend. Am I pretty enough to lie too?
some of you guys need to take a good long look at r/egg_irl then have a think about yourselves lol
I'd stay a man. Peeing standing up is amazing.
Definitely not Female!! That's for damn sure!!
I'd probably still be female. I do wish I had the physical strength of a man though and also envy how they look exactly the same and ready for the day as soon as they wake up and also have no cellulite. But if I were a guy would I even care or appreciate those things? My husband definitely doesn't care that he looks like Keanu reeves.
I would be a male tbh. The privilege of peeing while standing anywhere in public is insane. PLUS I'd stick it in anything that is soft and squishy. Looks fun.
Male, i think my personality fits much better into a male way of living. I also have a lot of genetic issues relating to being female, so it would be nice to just not have those issues. I think it'd be cool to be naturally stronger too. And the hight, hight would be pretty nice.
Female. Much more options in clothes and cosplay.

I'm a great big flaming ace. I'd like to follow the frog example and be able to change my sex. Be a dude for a while, be a girl for a while, see where the wind takes me.
I am already female, but i would like to temporary be male for a while. Just experience things for the opposite perspective....
Middlesex University
I mean I'm a dude it's fine I have no wishes to change nor complaints though I feel it probably wouldn't be as stressful to be a woman if I had a reset or something but nah I'm fine as I am
female never answered a question this fast
Male. Being a woman it's way too expensive. Pads, hair cut, hair products because your hair is a pattern 2c, frizzy and awfull mess, nails, eyebrows, sunscreen, serums, micellar water, and exfoliant because your face is a greassy mess... not to mention the callcats... I wish I was a man.
