I think I'd have the same difficulties as a woman but in different areas.
the biggest changes would be
the positives: - i can monetize my young, beautiful body and give clients erotic massages with a happy ending and get paid double at 20 years of what i make right now at 25. I'd be having much more money solving my life problems at a double rate, which leads me to a happier life 5 years earlier. monetizing sex isn't a problem for me since I'm a sexual soul. - i can get sex and love like almost on demand - "pussy pass" - in online dating i will have a full menu of candidates to choose from with 75% like rates, which most women got used to already. - and even if that fails i can comfortably become bisexual or lesbian. As a man I'm not comfortable being gay just from the thought of it. - able to store body fat in better places than men.
the negatives: - prone to be preyed on by creeps, rapists and losers. I'd have to take judo martial arts very early but let's be honest, I'd take on judo either way. - parents will be completely hell and insane, most likely i would get into STEM later in life than i myself did. - certain members of society trying to control women into oppression - being judged by physical appearances, which can sometimes take extra efforts
Id never want to be a woman because im proud a man; however being a female nowadays is the easiest its ever been. You dont have to look far to find stories of how privileged women are to day and many have no problem flexing that, the government will always side with females. Girls have always been brought up to be entitled to a certain degree (some way more than others). They still are today, the difference is with modern feminism not only are they still being brought up with that entitlement but add empowerment, supremacy, independence. What kind of attitudes are girl entering womanhood with? Just think about that for a while. How are these women going to treat men? Again you dont have to look far for a story of a woman flexing. How are men looked at nowadays? Men today are still expected to be the same gentlemen our fathers and grandfathers were still expected to shoulder the responsibility of keeping people alive and safe. Being a man in the times we live in is hard and thankless but at the end of the day no one else can do what we do at the capacity we do it✊.
You make more money, keep your family last name, your kids inherit your last name, you’re more respected, you don’t have to birth your children, you don’t have to deal with periods, you don’t have to deal with menopause, you aren’t discriminated for your sex.. I’d say you guys have life on easy mode.
Honestly, I don't think my life would be for the better if I were a guy. A black guy especially. I think it would be for the worse. I like being a woman. It comes with a lot of perks. Even being a black woman. I'm comfortable in my skin. I may not always attract the right guys, but I'm never without. I quite like being a woman. I don't have many women friends and for some reason most dislike me - I swear on my life it is not because I'm a horrible person. I'm a fairly nice person and have a huge heart that I wear on my sleeve. I think the friend thing is the only struggle I've had. I can even handle my period. Maybe, just maybe my life would be better, but I personally think I'd be worse off. I had a terrible father so if I were a guy, he'd be the person I'd traditionally "look up to" and that would be a disaster. I could become violent and abusive and my anger could be directed towards my family in a much more negative way than it is now.
@The_man_whol_aughs Being a black guy isn't horrible in itself. Being a black guy in the kind of household I was raised in is what would probably make my experience worse. I wouldn't have a good male figure to look up to. I would probably end up like my father. Worse, I'd probably end up a stereotype of the black man.
I'm not about to say who has the worst struggle. The realities and hardships of a black person is different from those of a Jewish person. I won't make a comparison because I don't know you're struggle personally and neither do you with mine.
@The_man_whol_aughs Oh shut up. While Jews are most certainly ostracized, they are not marginalized to the point that black people have been for centuries and still are. That’s ignorant.
Not to mention that the people who are never mentioned are the indigenous people of the US who are slowly dying out.
You’re a fool. Though blacks haven’t suffered the Holocaust, they have suffered lynchings, mobbings, demoralization, ostracism, and more in the past that has put them in the plight they are today.
Jews are still discriminated against but not to the extent of blacks today and other minorities.
There is sufficient evidence of the plight of the plight for blacks, latinos, Asians, natives and more in the US. Jews are here but there haven’t been wars started over them in the US.
Finally, your assumption that blacks hate Jews is erroneous. Do you not have the common sense to stop making false claims that include innocent people?
The War in Drugs targeted blacks people. Horrible medical studies targeted blacks people. The reason why most blacks are in poverty today is because they weren’t allowed to open savings accounts and more to help future generations. The incarceration rate of black men is more than any race and is attributed to them getting higher sentences than white men. Untrue racial bias which makes people fear blacks. Non felon black men are less likely to get a job than felon white men. Black women are considered jezebels and assumed to be extremely unattractive based on stereotypes. Lack of health sustenance attributes to damaging health in blacks (by this I mean that there aren’t healthy grocery stores in black communities and many can not go and access them. Plenty in white communities though). Inequality of education.
There is plenty. You’re wrong. I’m done responding.
I grew up as a lusty female with a boys name, so I actually (in many ways) got to grow up as both genders and am currently an androgynous female. I can tell you this. Gender does affect perception immensely because of this cultures views towards the different genders. And BIOLOGICALLY there aren't just two. More like 13 or something. And then you get into how one feels inside and the whole mess gets bigger. But you can't really know unless you are androgynous or that gender. And even though I was a tomboy awaiting Lolita status when puberty hit, I can't know what it is like to actually be a man. But my name thing (Ryan) has helped get jobs and other things I believe. Imagine their surprise when a chick shows up and you've only been pursuing through email. Lol.
I'd honestly love to switch places. I feel in some ways there would be more struggles but in others I would feel more freedom and wealth of emotion. I think expression would be much easier and being comfortable. I also feel like a lot is expected of my gender where there is a lot for a girl to experience but there is also a lot of support which is not always true for guys. There are many reasons for me but I don't see a realistic way for that to happen so I struggle to comprehend what I have been given and work my way through it
With #Metoo, Male Hatred (Misandry), Toxic Masculinity and Biased Family Courts, I'm glad I DIDN'T have a Son! I do have a grown Daughter (unmarried & no Boyfriend). Women have the advantages... but at a cost. She and other young women painfully long to have a Boyfriend. The Gender Ratios and dynamics so skewed that 1 in 4 young women will NEVER have children. And Men are walking away. The Article below has much more info.
@Anoniemus Biased... no one should take anything from there? Really? Just because they post an Article speaking to Men's Issues? How dismissive of you! You didn't even read the Article. The Author is from the UK. He references sources from Germany, UK and the United States. The problems my Daughter has will not be solved by looking for a non-American since the problems I described are experienced by Men across Western Countries.
Breitbart is a site that is heavily biased. You’re also making assumptions. There isn’t anything wrong with speaking about men’s rights and that’s not why I said what I said.
The site is not reliable and heavily impartial. No competent person would utilize it as a source because it is heavily biased.
@Anoniemus Did you even read the Article? Will you read the Article? Since it appears on Breitbart, you just won't? I submit that you are still being dismissive.
Why would I read something from a heavily biased source? It is likely to be untrustworthy. It’s irrational. Yes, non-ignorant people dismiss sites that pander to bias. They might have few articles that are legit but the source is one that is not to be trusted.
I feel you’re commuting confirmation bias. Use a better source.
@Anoniemus You have confirmed that you are unwilling to read the Article. That's willful ignorance. A better approach by you would have been to read the Article and counter with citation. It's called making a counter argument.
No it wouldn’t. It would have been better for you to not use a biased source as evidence because it gives you less credibility. That’s like me using a source from some other hate website and using it as “proof”. The source is not credible and therefore no attention should be brought to it.
Fact checkers utilize this method when perusing facts especially when they know a site is heavily biased.
No period or PMS symptoms.. never worrying about getting pregnant.. no menopause.. taken seriously at work.. less sexual harassment.. getting ready faster.. orgasming easier so sex is rarely disappointing... I can go on to all the ways mens' lives are just simpler
Guy's goes through something similar to menopause. very few mention it or think it's something else.
Taken seriously has more to do with how you are as a person and how you communicate. Seen to many guy's that doesn't get taken seriously in the same manner as some girls.
More men then you realize get sexual harassed on a regular basis by female's when they work.
Orgasm is mostly to do with our minds how we communicate and what we do ourselves. (mental issues, assumptions, how we see on thing's, limiting beliefs) A lot of guys suffers from mental related dysfunction just like females. guy's that fake orgasm or for that matter doesn't get that much out of it.
Guy's lifes are about the same as female's. most thing's hangs on what we choose both mentally and what to do. Most thing's female's think they must do to be accepted is unnecessary thing's they create themselves just like many guy's do with some thing's.
Most thing's becomes as difficult unpleasant as we choose to perceive it 😉
@crazy8000 live one day as a woman and you would think differently. You can’t say things are the same it’s just how you perceive it if you haven’t experienced life as a woman.
So a girl with a nice attitude won't have period cramps and won't experience pain during childbirth? Wow you as a man have taught me so much about my own body 😒
If you were a man you would have to worry about crazy women who want to destroy your life. There are always false rape and/or sexual harassment allegations. Mandatory signing up for selective service. Being expected to die for others. If you show any signs of being hesitant you are labeled a pussy or a coward. Getting fucked over in family court. Institutionalized misandry.
@joeblow123 You're examples and mine are very different because all those aren't things that have happened to YOU. Just things you heard have happened to men. My examples come from real life experience of EVERY woman including myself. These are things that will 100% guaranteed happen to you if you turn into a woman
Live one day as a man and you will think differently. You can’t say things are the same it’s just how you perceive it if you haven’t experienced life as a man.
Try shaving your face everyday. Keeping your hair short on a regular basis. Imagine someone of the same gender shit talking you. If you a woman you can walk away and no one would think less of you. That is not true for a man. Imagine being required by law to sign up for the military draft.
Taken seriously at work. You mean like the denials of a falsely accused man of sexual harassment in front of the HR department.
@joeblow123 you’re just proving my point. Life would be drastically different if you were born with a different sexual identity. Thanks for agreeing :)
Yes, of course it would be very different to be a guy. I think it would be easier. It would be nice not have to stress as much about body shape, not have to deal with menstrual stuff, not have to style hair every day, easier to get dressed because the clothes would be simpler, wouldn't have to shave body, not expected to be a great cook, and I would enjoy having the lead role in dating.
Every single one of them. Nobody makes you do any of that, and trust me when I say not all women do those things. It’s not about gender, it’s about individual.
@Gavyn There is societal pressure on women for these much more then men. For men, it's normal to not shave their legs, to have a shaved haircut, wear plain baggy clothes, and let women do the cooking. And men don't even have boobs or butt to worry about the shape of them. I'm not sure why you can't see any of that. And yes, it is very much related to gender.
There’s also societal pressure to live life how you want, how hard!!! The only pressure regarding those these days is the pressure to break free from them. Ughh
Id probably be a successful, flamboyant, well dressed gay man, most likely working for some snazzy design company and have a cute little dog and a really overly good looking boyfriend and a beautiful flat. But my dad would be disappointed as fuck as he'd probably try to spoil me to death and make my stisters treat me like the king he expects to be treated like himself and push all his dreams and expectations on me.
I have an ex that has similar motivations as I do; however, her useful actions become converted into emotional waste. So, basically I would simply have all my drive converted into worthless emotions and so flounder with a clt-dck and another hole as she does.
I think the things I would love would be having long hair to style and the variety of clothes and accessories I could wear would be awesome. As men we're kind of limited in that department. There isn't much variation in style.
As men you get propositioned less so you're less likely to say no. As a woman it's a common occurrence so you learn to be more particular. So there's that as well.
I know woman are far more likely to he harassed and are limited by society but ibe got to say I have thought about whether I'd prefer life as a woman more than once. I tend to have deeper emotional connections and therefore friendships with women over men.
It's a fact of life that women are discriminated against more than men. It works both ways sure, but disproportionately affects women, especially non-white women due to the historical dominance of white males in shaping the world.
I'm not saying all feminism is good, far from it. Nothing is ever 100% good and the borderline revulsion of modern day society towards white men is not exactly helpful despite being founded in a real sense of injustice.
I try not to speak from ignorance but I studied history at degree level and specialised in the emergence of proto-feminism in Victorian society so I like to think I understand at least a little, from an outsiders perspective, the continuing struggle for equality that women face.
I fear that I would be a total ho. Like, even as a male, my hormones and feelings are bursting. I want all day and night romance till I got bored, then I want intercourse day and night. I feel like an animal on heat. Not showing it to anybody though. So, perhaps harder. Because it is hard to find proper, clean living among world of pigs.
if I were the same me but as a guy, I would assume that I had more friends in school and that my mother would have liked me and my father would have been the same but disliked me more and I would have been either a virgin shy boy or i would have spoken more and became a good friend
Yeah maybe. My mum said she would've probably named me something along the lines of 'Amber'
Not just that, but I would've have been brought up, very similarly to how I was as a guy, except with slightly different toys, perhaps? I'm not sure, but I feel like I wouldn't be too different in the way I act
I think my life would be a whole lot different. It's kinda hard to imagine myself as a boy but I know that I wouldn't have to deal with periods or cramps. I feel like in some ways it would easier cheaper being a guy but in some other aspects they'll be other things expected of me. Honestly I would stay a girl
Loads different Im sure. And it would be both easier and harder but in different settings. But overall I think its not going to get any better for me regardless of my sex. I am still the only one in my way, everything else is an excuse in perspective.
I don't know, i guess i would still have the same hobbies, musical taste and would have chosen the same job, since all these things i didn't choose because of being a man.
BUT a lot of stuff came with friends that introduced me into these things in the first place, so i guess its more of a question how my life would habe turned out with different friends or if i had made the same friends as a girl/woman...
I can't even begin to imagine. I'm certain it would be radically different. I just don't know how it would be different, just completely different. Well, I wouldn't be the same person anyway for a start. I'd be a completely different person, different hormones, body, etc.
My name would likely be different, my childhood interests different, etc. I'd just be a totally different person, maybe like my sister. She's totally different.
As for easier or more difficult, again no idea. I'd be dealing with a totally different set of life experiences, hormones, thinking patterns, interests, struggles, etc. I make no assumptions here.
Definitely! I would’ve lost my virginity as a teenager, I’d have a partner every minute of my life if I wanted (because if I broke up with one, I’d use my looks & flirtations to obtain another man), and I’d probably have a large group of party friends even if I was incredibly boring 💁🏻♀️💁🏻♀️💁🏻♀️
Well, for the careers or communities I’d want to get into, they would probably be infinitely harder if I was a woman. Also, I don’t know how I would be with a woman brain, so I might not even find my current careers all that appealing.
Probably fairly comparable in a lot of ways... though I doubt I’d have ended up in the firefighting and Mma side of things if I was a woman. Mma having been very impactful on my teenage years and development.
Being a woman would be so fucking easy. Download Tinder, choose some guy from the menu, have him pay for everything. Whine about inequality, get a job I'm not qualified for.
Men and women have struggles they share and struggles that are separate, and trying to compare which pain is worse never works out well. Just a matter of perspective. That said, I'm pretty happy being a guy. Seeing as how most women in my family turn out, I'm glad I'm not them. (Not that they're bad people by any means, just not my cup of tea.)
In some ways I think it will be harder and maybe a little easier in some ways I don't think my life and aspirations would be to different I know how I dress and act a little would be different also if I did turn into a man I would be pissed if I was still attracted to men♀️♂️
Oh I think it definitely would have been easier. I am able to handle the things that are thrown at me though so I think I'm equipped to be in the skin that I'm in.
Yes, it would be more difficult. Even though I barely get male attention, I still think I would have a harder time being a guy. I am shy and so I can't imagine being shy and being a guy. Guys are typically supposed to ask out girl but if I were a guy I would probably be too shy to do that.
My life would be much harder if I was a woman. Women have a harder more dangerous life with a lot stricter and harsher expectations on them. It's harder being a woman than a man.
As soon as I saw your name I knew it was going to be a stupid comment 😂 Who dies first has absolutely nothing to do with the quality of life each gender leads.
You said women have a more dangerous life. This is factually incorrect across the globe, look at statistics. Quality of life of different genders obviously varies greatly by region.
I think chase is a nice name, 7 is a nice number, you apparently don't.
It has nothing to do with your name or the number. Your gender makes you biased. You have no idea what it means to be a woman anywhere in the world. You've never tried to view things from a woman's perspective. You've never listened to women talk about what they go through around the country and around the world. If you did you wouldn't make such blatantly false statements of how "easy" it is to be a woman. Read!
Yeah, I mean if I was a women I wouldn't have been forced to go to the military. How terrible that would be. I would have gotten better marks in school for worse work. Women quotas...
You're an idiot for talking about things you have no idea of.
You're a fool. Women are sold as property in many countries. Women are openly raped in public and no one defends them in some counties. Women are beaten for sport from childhood through marriage without the ability to have other man even charged with a crime. Get an education.
Everywhere women struggle from being oppressed. First world countries are not exceptions. People not caring about others is exactly what's wrong with this world. If everyone had empathy and compassion for each other the world wouldn't be so bad. I hope you read up and learn more about how women struggle. You've got women in your family. You should care about them. Good luck.
@IntrovertedAj Men are far more likely to be the victims of murder and just violence in general, than women are. Boys have higher mortality rates from pretty much all causes than girls do. Men's suicide rate is 3x that of women. Men live several years less than women. In much of the world, men are still conscripted for the military, where millions of them have died over the centuries. Who gets to choose whether sex happens or not? Women. Who gets to make babies on their own if they want to? Women. Who gets more sympathy? Women. Who gets discriminated positively because of their gender? Women. Who is far less likely to be in prison? Women. Who has better health and educational outcomes in the developed world? Women. Who has better social support networks? Women. Who gets to be provided for if they want it? Women. Etc. etc. etc.
Obviously there are exceptions like Iran, Saudi-Arabia, etc., but overall if you want a healthy, long life with supportive people around you and a society that gives a fuck about your problems, it is far, far, far better to be born female than male.
Women have a lot of power due to their looks and youth... but once that has gone, they are left with whatever they developed before that went. If you take that power for granted, when it's gone, life will become very hard, and even seem really unfair. Even worse to those so seduced by the power, they didn't even realize it was temporary.
Naturally better. I'd be able to whore for attention in every real/digital platform available, have pathetic losers daunt on my every whim simply because I have a pussy, and still I'd get to bitch and whine about how terrible my life is due to all men existing for the sole reason of raping me.
If I was a female and had the same interests I do now, life would have been harder while growing up. I was into engineering which was predominantly male when I grew up back in the 70's, 80's, 90's. As a female I probably would of had to prove myself at least twice as hard as the male counterparts. My struggle would have been a double whammy being black and a female.
Well I don't know, if I was a girl there would be a lot of things that would be harder for me, but being a guy was a little easier. I think my anxiety and depression would be worse, but I can't really give a good answer, would be weird tho lol
different, 100x worse. I'd never want to convert to nor come back as a female anywhere on this planet. God bless you all for your strength putting up with males.
If I were born a female, I'd a 3rd degree black belt and weapons expert.
I am not sure but I think I would've had a more bubbly personality if I was a girl, and I think I would've been really slutty 🤭 and probably would've been kind of a heartbreaker 🤷
My life would probably be fairly close to what it is now. I probably wouldn't have had 4 kids if I were a woman though. I would still have the same hobbies and interests. I will admit that I would probably be a size queen though...
It would be easier. I would be a gay man. I would have been in the Marines fresh out of high school and then went into porn. I wouldn't settle down until I was about 45.
That’s a leap of logic. Why do plenty of guys on here make crazy assumptions about something no one said? I have a lot to risk as a woman. As a man, I wouldn’t care. This isn’t indicative of all men. Who cares?
It would definitely be more difficult and very different in certain cultures. In my world, I think women face different kinds of challenges than men do. Life would certain be a LOT different if I were a female.
@joeblow123 if I could do it myself i would, but if it was something like fixing a car (which I can't do and men GENERALLY, nit always, know more about) I ask him if do it, assuming he actually knew how
Who knows? Different for sure, not sure if better or worse. Men are generally less criticized in society and less judged by their appearance. But, the grass is always greener on the other side.
"Men are generally less criticized in society and less judged by their appearance."
You've got to be kidding. If men are accused of a sex crime society's reaction is: "castrate the bastard" if women are accused of a sex crime society's reaction is: "who's the homo who turned her in?"
@ninjazzed men are looked at as expendable in society. Imagine living life knowing that your natural tendency to protect, provide, and lead will be used against you at some point.
@joeblow123 Meaning, men can do what they want with their bodies and face little ridicule. They can dress how they please, act how they please, etc. Bodily autonomy is less attainable for women, hence why abortion is still an issue. Their bodies are never truly under their total control.
@joeblow123 And sex crimes nowadays often go unnoticed or the guy literally gets a slap on the wrist, depending on his status. If he’s a young college dude then they’ll let him off with an 8-month sentence of jail time. And yes this literally just happened. Allegations are usually neglected and the victim is usually the one facing consequence.
"Bodily autonomy is less attainable for women. Their bodies are never truly under their total control."
Neither are men's considering we are required by law to register for the draft. Or a homeless divorced unemployed father that is required to look for work or go to jail even though he may have failing health.
If I was a woman I'd feel things would be a little better. I'm naturally emotional and submissive. I could more easily find someone to ask me out and treat me special. I dont know too many women that would do that for me as a guy.
Pretty everything. Every family or community has their own rules over girls. Sometimes they aren't allowed to go outside alone. They can't wear what they want. Boy will get all the attention in house. Everywhere they go men look at them like they're some sex toy. They can't get enough education. Even an educated girl has to settle for dumbass because her family wants that. They can't go for nightout because of fear of being raped. It's most unsecure place for women. Doesn't matter if you belong to poor or rich family, this discrimination is happening with every girl and woman.
@joeblow123 I born in this country. I've seen things. I know what I'm saying. Though what MRA said isn't wrong. There is male discrimination in this country. But as compare to woman it's like salt in a meal.
@joeblow123 I would go to fight, improve my physical fitness, learn new skills, use my courage and feel like a protector. Then once I served a good amount of years, I won't renew my contract and I'll use my experience to get a great job in the FBI or CIA. I have a good amount of veterans cops in my family so... 😊
@joeblow123 This is a life goal I would have for myself if I were a man. It would be a personal goal and my reasons for not doing it in this gender is personal also. This was not meant for you to take it personally and assume I expect this of all men. I don't.
What you listed can be accomplished as a man or woman. Women who work in law enforcement or intelligence can go places their male colleagues cannot. In some ways that is an advantage.
Of course it would be different. LORD thank YOU for not making me a woman, I would have been an ENORMOUS whore.

For better, If I was a guy, I could be more free and like go out. And just have fun? Maybe could I be more confident and just active/social. And can invite my friends over and play video games, instead babysitting. And perhaps , I could have better style because damn, the clothes for men are fine af? I have other reasons but these are the main points.
Can't really agree there. Men's clothing are boring and short of colors to choose from. mostly black white grey brown khaki dark blue. small varieties when it comes dressing up. costume and smoking.
Confidence is something you choose to be. A lot of guys aren't really confident. only act and a lot of female's can't see the difference.
Invite to play games instead of babysitting is a life choice you have made un less you live in a country you must do it tonot get in to serious trouble with your physical health.
The same with free and go out un less it's like previous.
It's pretty amusing how people creates mentally limiting ideas and views what they can and can't do.
Not sure, but I do know I wouldn't have met the man I fell in love with. We are no longer together now after 10 years... we still love each other and good friends.
Yas - I'd be a privileged female whining, waiting for guys to do everything for me, always being right, and if anything ever goes wrong - blaming it on men.
