Absolutely not. I would not give up being a man for anything. Now switching societies on the other hand...
A different era, yes. A different country, maybe.
Never a different gender.
Nah, I value my inherent rationality, logic and emotional stability way too much!
No, obviously. No matter how bad things get both men and women have their sex as a huge part of who they are, so it aint gonna happen even for those who voted yes.
The poll is closed. For men, 36 percent said they'd rather be a woman; for women, 33 percent said they'd rather be a man. What that means is anyone's guess. I am glad those percentages aren't a lot higher.
Whoever you are
Wherever you be
It's always a plus
To stand when you pee
I think that is a question that is really hard to answer.
I thought about it and I just can not even imagine being a female because I'm a male and it's all I have ever known.
I would guess that a few men would, if they could, switch genders because too many places have become hostile living enviroments for males.

They make stand up female urinals - I personally was never good at negotiating them, however...:(
I'm sure most men witnessing pregnancy and childbirth are grateful they don't have to, but most women wouldn't trade the experience for anything in heaven or earth.
This concept is from a LONG gone era, but there ARE men out there who make women glad to be women:)
Maybe I can provide a useful input.
I'm Intersexed. In 1985 the diagnosis was an Intersexed male. I looked like a man, mostly. In 2005, after some dramatic somatic changes resulting in huge numbers of tests, that was changed to Intersexed female. By then, I looked like a woman, mostly.
"I've looked at life, from both sides now..."
However, my gender identity has always been female, I picked the name "Zoe" at age 10, so can't say that I'm objective about it.
Men have huge amounts of male privilege that they're not aware of, especially economically. Most of the Good Guys don't treat women badly, they're just clueless. The bad ones though are really bad, and get away with it.
Women have female privilege too, that they're not aware of. Mainly in interpersonal relationships and ability to communicate with other women. Guys don't get it. While most women are more sinned against than sinning, some of the nastiest people on the planet are female.
Female privilege: I can get seated on an airliner next to a child without it causing problems. I won't get accused of rape. If convicted of an offense, I'll get a lesser sentence. Being able to cry it out so I can move on.
Female un-privilege: where to start... not being able to walk in the dark, due to the danger of rape. Getting paid less. Having my professional opinions valued less. The Glass ceiling. Hormone Hell.
Male and Female is between the ears, not the legs. The Brain is a sexually-differentiated organ. But just as men are taller than women, yet some women are taller than some men, there's overlap in various areas of the brain. It's closer to say that the Brain is a complex system of organs, each of which is more or less typically masculine or feminine.
About a third of people are BiGendered, and if put in that position, would be able to function adequately (if not exactly well...) in an opposite gender role. By that I mean the biologically-determined 10-20% of Gendered behaviour, not the 80-90% majority of it which has no biological basis, only custom.
For those who are not biGendered, being a woman with a masculinised body is Hellish. Same for a man with a feminised body. Hence Transsexuality, where the brain is cross-sexed compared with the rest of the body.
This is invariant regardless of society. It is just as true in Patagonia as Paris, and would be true on a desert island with no-one else on it.
As regards Gender Role, guys have it better, no doubt. In certain areas though, the way they're treated in child custody cases for example, there's an obvious injustice. That needs correcting.
As for women who deliberately and maliciously make a false rape claim, the crime should be viewed as the same as rape. The standard of proof required though for a conviction should be very high - mere failure to prosecute the alleged rapist successfully would not be enough, any more than failure to prove actual malice on the behalf of the accuser should result in a conviction for rape.
That's an interesting perspective.
Thanks for sharing.
Zoe, welcome to the FRS.
