I feel like I would be pretty unhappy. I like being a guy, and it's all I know. I'd be super worried that the magic won't turn me back.

well that depends on the whole "magic" part of it, there are too many questions about what i would feel/remember and how my body would react differently.

on the surface though, if i was decent looking, i'd enjoy the shit out of it, there are so many frat bro's i'd use to do everything for me while i be a yoga pants wearing skankzilla.

Would my hormone levels stay the same? Would my brain chemistry be different? Men and woman have different ways of thinking would stay male or go female? If that dose change then I am fundamentally a different person. I can't say what I would do, I wouldn't be me.

I could not live with myself were I female. It's already bad enough that I'm an ugly dude; that ugliness would be amplified something fierce were I turned into a female.

I'd cry tears of joy that it had finally happened, even though I had always thought it would be impossible. See, I'm... Not transsexual, exactly, but as much of a woman-in-a-man's-body that you can be and still not be a transsexual.

It'd be perfect, really. I'd finally be at peace with myself in that regard, and could move on with my life, being the person I'd want to be, with little effort. One could dream...

I chose option 5. I nearly picked 4 but this was most accurate.

Because I would be most distraught and sad. I love being a girl. I don't want to be a stupid boy!

so because you'd become a boy, you are automatically stupid?

*SCOFF*

Do you by chance read the webcomic Misfile? That's basically the premise except it's done by an angel from a bureaucratic version of Heaven. It's pretty entertaining.
I've not heard of it but I might look it up. The setup for the scenario just seemed like a good way to set it up and be focussed just on the change of body with no other baggage to consider.

Although I generally don't like the manga style this is actually a very entertaining comic. As someone who spends half an hour a day reading up on about 20 webcomics... good tip, thanks.

Instant Hell Yes!
Followed by repeated psyching-out of my therapist, physicians, coworkers, friends, parents...

Oh, and guys? The breasts aren't all that. For every upside, there's an "Oh, good Lord - I now have tender bits in an easy-to-accidentally-pummel location." Immediately preceded by startled yelps of pain.

Got a bisexual boyfriend, so that wouldn't be an issue.

Pretty sure my girl would adapt nicely as well. ;)

egh, my gender isn't much part of my personality, though I bet I'd make a pretty bad ass chick. >.>
sexuality will be interesting though, since it's heterosexual sex itself that actually gets me, not just the opposite sex, so there's that.

On the flipside, periods are gonna suck, breasts are cool but can be painful if struck, and keeping up muscle tone will take more dedication than usual.
still, the only time my chest would be struck is when I'm wearing steel armour. :D

I'd probably cope just fine, and be able to embrace the changes after a bit of getting used to it.

Would proceed to devote all my time and effort to totally screw the entity responsible for this, and play it by ear after that, probably trying to find out what's the lesbian scene like.

I'd beg and plead to be changed back to male. While I consider myself a feminist, I am far too attached to my penis, masculinity, and my overall gender identity. Also, if I was female and lived in current society, I'd be a really, really angry woman. I'd be on Rage Mode 24/7, and that is kind of very unhealthy.

Your thought processes will remain the same but you will be at the mercy of your new hormones. So the newly created women are going to be aggressive and irrational once a month, the new men are going to be like that all the time. :)
Hormones aren't magical. They do not dictate your mood. While they might have some sort of slight influence in mood (and which vary in intensity from person to person), they do not override personality. Women don't get irritable during their periods because of their hormones, they get irritable because, for most of them, it's accompanied by an ache that can range from mild to crippling. Let's see how irritable men are when they're kneed in the balls for 3-5 days once a month.

Just a PSA from your friendly neighbourhood biochemist.

Well first I'd fon... Oh you said cope. I thought you said grope.

I would take glee in seeing the reactions of everyone I know as I try to convince them that I've always been a woman and that they've always known and interacted with me as such.

Okay... AFTER all the touchings of myself... I'd have to get used to the physical stuff. Awkward top-heaviness, lower-back problems, continually slamming my new fun-bags with stuff I'm carrying, or even the car door (ouch!). No, it would suck for a while.

Oh dammit, the car door... I can't get it out of my head. I'm always getting close my cheat already with the damn thing. Always walking through doors half-open and sideways. It's what I'm used to! My chest would hurt all the damn time. Just thinking about all that pain is causing me to wince. Still, upside is I'd get to avoid the painful sitting down I sometimes have to put up with after I've woken up.

Otherwise, no, I'm cool with that. The first few months would just be Adventure Time.

This question is inspired by the recent gender identity topic.

If you woke up tomorrow and found that during the night you had magically been transformed into a fully functional member of the opposite sex, how would you react?

Everyone still remembers who you were but when you tell them what happened they just shrug and say "it happens" and they accept it (part of the magic). Government departments will change your ID for you becuase "it happens", your bank will change your details etc. so there's no problems with your identity being lost, just how you deal with the physical change.
Do you by chance read the webcomic Misfile? That's basically the premise except it's done by an angel from a bureaucratic version of Heaven. It's pretty entertaining.
Looks like a case of bad fanfiction... high school, locker rooms, partial nudity, shower scenes, breast groping... and speaking of breasts, every female character is amply doted... why is it whenever a man changes into a woman in fiction, he gets enormous breasts, and half the gags are about coping with his new breasts? Women don't think that often about their chest in real life.
