Poll: Would you Change your Gender/Sex?

[FallenMessiah88]

Yeah why not, at least for a short while...Just to experience life through the eyes of the fairer sex.

 

[JUMBO PALACE]

No thanks. Being a male has no down sides. So why would I want to handicap myself?

This is exactly why I wouldn't make it permanent. I'd try out being a girl for a week and then want to be a dude again. Everything is so much easier when you're a guy.

 

[Sebenko]

Hell yeah. I'd totally try it for a bit.

How long? However long it takes me to get bored.

 

[Mr Binary]

Would I change for good? No.
Change for a short time? Yes.
I like being female, I wouldn't mind seeing what it is like to be male though.

 

[Syphous]

No way. You realize how easy it is to be a man? Duh! Winning!

 

[GeorgW]

I'd love to be a girl when I'm young, and a guy when I'm old. For a short while, I'd definitely try out being a girl. As for permanent, I don't know. Girls are superior, but I'm so used o being a guy. I don't know.

 

[Daverson]

Yes, though for a short time. Because eventually I'm going to be in the situation where someone's going to say "well that's easy for you to say, but [xyz] is different for girls, you wouldn't understand". I am firm believer this excuse is bullshit, so would relish the opportunity to call this out.

Or I could be wrong! In which case it'd be a learning experience. Doubt that though.

(Yes, this post is an attempt to tempt fate)

 

[DaMullet]

I would, in a heartbeat.

And yes, forever.

Women to me are more powerful. Doesn't matter what position a guy has, or how smart or strong he is. The ability to turn them into drooling idiots with a quick bounce of the boobies renders them nothing more then pawns. (See romancing Garrus in Mass Effect 2)

For whatever draw backs there are to being a women, they are more free to work, dress, play, communicate, and have control however or whenever they want.

Women dress in a suit, no prob
Guy dresses in a dress... ARGH! MY EYES

Guys plays video games well, whatever
Woman plays vidoe games well, damn she's hot!

Etc.

 

[commodorejohn]

I dunno. If I had an option to give it a try and see which one I like better I'd consider it, but I'm not unhappy with my current me, thanks.

 

[Redlin5_v1legacy]

Not permanently no but I would like to walk a mile or two in the other sides shoes...

Know thy enemy!

 

[LittleChone]

I'm fine with the way I am. Although...

 

[Rofl-Mayo]

Maybe for a short time to see what it's like but I'm totally content with my current sex.

 

[The Keeper]

I would change my physical sex to match my true gender. If that's what you mean.

But if my only option was to change my true gender, I'd go with that. Better than being gender dysphoric.

Also, anyone who is not gender dysphoric should not wish for this. Maybe you would be okay for a short time, but that's it. It probably sounds really awesome, but it's not. Yes I'm aware this is all speculation. Just putting it out there.

 

[Jack_Uzi]

Maybe being a woman for a few days to see 'her/their' point of view couldn't be bad, but permanet?... No... I know I'm content being a male and couldn't think/be otherwise.

 

[phantasmalWordsmith]

If it was temporal then I'd give it a go. It would be an interesting experience and not just for "exploring" the female body. I'd like to see what it's like being a woman, might help me understand them better, but ultimately I would want to go back to my real self, which I have lived with and know. I know my body's rhythm and I wouldn't mess with it for too long. Longest I would spend as a girl, a week

 

[Aisaku]

Yes. Preferrably permanent.

Also, these threads are significantly funnier when viewed in context of each poster's avatar *cough cough*

I love that this topic keeps cropping up from time to time. Keep it up!

 

[Sejs Cube]

Meh, to satisfy intellectual curiosity I could see switching for a time. It'd be an interesting experience if nothing else.

 

[Marik2]

For a short time yes.

If I was a hot girl.

I'd probably sit around all day playing with my boobs though.

LOL I think most guys who would turn into a girl would just do that XD

 

[ThreeWords]

I'm with the OP on this one, though to a lesser extent.

To be honest, this guy says it better than I can:

Yes, I think I would. If the change could be complete and perfect, and would not just be from now and onwards, but also my past.

I have often thought, sometimes yearned, that I had been born a girl. I don't really have an explanation for this, the idea just seems right. There is of course treatments and procedures one could go through to fullfill that, but I won't.

See, while I would prefer to have been a girl, I am quite okay with being a boy. I do manly stuff, enjoy manly stuff, and am comfortable with my body. My personality is pretty manly most of the time. So it's not that being a man is a problem for me. I just would have prefered being a woman.

And that is why I would never take steps to take my gender, at least not through the means we have available. Because to me, the "benefit" is not enough, not complete and total enough, especially not when compared to the social stigma.

I have all the respect and best wishes in the world for those that would undergo gender changing operations, but it is not for me. And it¨s not necessary for me.

But if I could, if some Deus Ex Machine could change it all, retcon me if you will... Then yes, I would like to.

Does that make sense?

To answer you, Longshot: yes, it makes sense to me.
