Poll: How Would You Cope With A Change Of Sex?

[Tiger King]

well I think it would be ok for a few hours, then it would start doing my head in a bit once realisation of the bigger picture sinks in.

pros:
playing with boobies
being lesbian with my gf

cons:
Periods
Having to apply make up and take ten years doing my hair

I guess I could adjust but I'd rather stay male I think.

 

[Mid Boss]

On the plus side:

I'd suddenly go from being the pursuer to the one being pursued. That would a fucking WONDERFUL change of pace!! I'd suddenly have power over all the men around me. I'd totally friend zone half a dozen guys and lead them around like dogs on a leash having them do everything I wanted.

I'd also be able to have more than one orgasm.


On the negative side:

But then there's the whole having a period thing that would be a monthly pain in the ass. I'd also have to put up with misogyny and being treated as a sex object. I'd get my tubes tied immediately because I HATE children to begin with and the thought of carrying one would horrify me. Of coarse, I'd be one of the percentage of women who can't get orgasms, ever, because that would be just my fucking luck.



So... I really can't tell if it would be a good thing or a bad thing.

 

[James Crook]

Oh, for the love of God, turn me back.
I like having a wiener. Makes going to take leak convenient. And fast. Cos time is money.

No, more seriously, I'd take a long, good look at the new hardware, think up a list of software requirements for a while, and then turn back.

 

[Baron von Blitztank]

1) Do I get to keep my beard?
2) Will my girlfriend go lesbian for me?
3) Will I not receive any ailments related to the opposite-gender such as periods?
4) Do I keep all of my physical abilities?
5) Will fiddling with my new body-bits never get old?

If the answer to any of the above questions is "No" then: FOR THE LOVE OF GOD CHANGE ME BACK!

 

[Gameguy20100]

It Really wouldn't matter to me I would just go on with life as before I'm Asexual anyway so no pesky awkward relationships changes which is a plus.

 

[Jenvas1306]

If I just turn into how my body would be if I was born physically female, awesome. would be very easy for me I just wouldnt need the artificial hormones anymore and people would still recognize me easily.
So minimal changes for me and almost no change to my current life, only to future perspectives.
wait... I would still need artificial hormones, as I wouldnt want to use a condom with my bf everytime. Why cant we just switch fertility on and off at will?


But I wouldnt want to turn into a post-op transguy, meh....

 

[gazumped]

Well, like a lot of people have said, I'm pretty sure my straight partner wouldn't be cool with it so I would be incredibly unhappy as it'd probably lose me the guy I love.

But that's the only downside I can really think of. If I were single (or had a bi partner who really wasn't bothered by gender) then I'd just roll with the punches. Also, I always figured that sex is probably more fun for guys for one thing (and as I'm bi I don't have to worry about my prospective partner pool shrinking, although I'm going to find it much harder to pull if I'm expected to be the active party).

I'd be interested in a poll where we could see how many of either gender are okay or not okay with switching, actually. Wondering if there's a more popular gender...

 

[SadisticFire]

Considering that I've alerady thought about sex change, and just how I act I doubt much would actually mentally change. I'd probably go "Well okay i'm a guy, that's pretty damn new." but continue my days on the computer and masturbate differntly. I guess my 'affectionate creeping' is going to spike up though. Cause it's more creepier when a guy just grabs your crotch and whisper in your ear "I'm your mother now.." than when a gal' does it.

 

[Something Amyss]

Ohh, the trolling I would do! I would tempt a guy and then just tell him "Ohh yeah, I used to be a guy a few weeks ago". The reaction that guy would make would fuel the happiness inside me for the rest of my life.

That could very likely get you killed. There's a ton of transfolk who've been killed by someone who thinks it's a justifiable response to having been "tricked."

And they're not actively trolling people.

Sorry to be a buzzkill, but...Yeah.

 

[Something Amyss]

Psssh. I lick my friends. You're an amateur creeper!

Oh you do that too? It gets even better when you start licking up their cheeks to their lips.

 

[Silvanus]

I'd make an even worse woman than I do a bloke.

I wouldn't be too upset, though. I'd see what it was like before kicking off.

 

[kortin]

Spend all morning in the shower, fondling my sexy new boobs.

Just like all girls do.

This.

I mean what else are you going to do?

 

[Kajin]

From a guy to a girl. If I couldn't find a way to change back, I'd simply make myself as pretty as possible. Then I'd never leave me room.

 

[dark-mortality]

Ehh, except for periods, I would manage pretty well I hope. Plus, this would give me a reason to be together with a guy I like.

Ouch.....yeah.....doing that is bad....noted.....

Well, umm......I could do something else I guess?........

 

[Dr. Doomsduck]

I would be so thorougly confused...Hell, I sometimes get weirded out when my character in-game is a guy. Not to mention the shaving, the whole dick-thing...it would not end well.

 

[V da Mighty Taco]

It'd be a weird scenario for me. I'd definitely want to be a guy again for a variety of reasons, but at the same time I think I'd probably be able to adapt fairly well considering I'm positive that I'd be acting exactly the same anyways. I tend to not be the type to care about how manly I seem as it is, so that wouldn't really change in that regards.

Captcha: "emperor's clothes"

 

[Quazimofo]

Cool. First things first, I should probably go buy bras and the like, change my profile on things, tell people what happened. Wouldn't really change who I am. Your mind defines who you are, not your body. I would still wear the same things, only difference would be practical (bras) and probably wear dresses at formal events. I guess I'm cool as either sex and in an ideal world I could switch at will between the two. But if I had to pick one I think I would go for female. But as said, being male is fine.

Same. If it weren't for the fact that I'm a bit chunky (actively being rectified), the awkward-ness of getting used to having breasts and now technically being gay (shouldn't take long to get used to), and the number of minor-yet-significant societal stigmas/practices/ideas that kinda screw over women in varying degrees of severity(sexism, prestigious "boys club" establishments of education/business, unnecessarily complex clothing etc, though these can be dealt wtih), and of course the periods (honestly cant imagine what that's like, even with the descriptions people have said), and now having to carry the child for 9 months should I decide to have children (unless I adopt, which I probably would since it's a bit hard to assume the role of father-figure when you are indisputably the mother, and after hearing the horror-story that is my younger brother's birth I REALLY don't want to risk that), I really wouldn't have any problems with suddenly being a girl.

And while that does sound like a laundry list, but think of how that compares to the shit load of factors that otherwise exist in life.

Also, screw dresses. Pant-suits all the way! Man or woman I was BORN to wear suits.


Also just thought of another upside, no more awkward boners! (this may or may not subside eventually, but due to the... vigor of being a teenager it's a real pain in the ass and happens too often for no discernible reason).

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.

DAMN YOU TO HELL! I HAVE AN AP EXAM TOMORROW AND I WAS GOING TO TAKE A PRACTICE TEST AND STUDY TONIGHT!
