if you could switch genders for a day...

baby and crumble

Just wondering, if people could change your sex (as opposed to gender- you'd just be getting the opposite parts to the ones you already have) here just a for a day, what would you do? And I mean this is a lighthearted way. So whatever gender you identify as, if you had to have 1 day where you were the other, what would you like to try?

I'd personally find it entertaining (and informative) to pee standing up. And the other things you can do with boy bits.

Just inspired by an episode of The L Word the other day:

(I just tied myself up in knots trying to write this in a non-exclusive way... :eek(:)

Edit: I meant to change the title when I found a better way of wording it. Grrrr...)

I dunno - I've never thought about this really although I think I understand women much more than men. I relate to them more. I've become very feminist in my outlook on things in the last 2 or 3 years and at the moment feminism is part of my course - anyway I'm kind of rambling - I actually can't really imagine being anything other than a man though

If I were the opposite gender, I'd be delighted. I'd have an arms length list of what I'd do. Probably go shopping first :P

!!!

Er have sex I presume, haha.

Hmm, well... Thinking about it from a transgender perspective, it could be an interesting diagnostic tool to figure out if genital surgery is right for you? A person might think "This is ok, but I don't I need surgery to feel completely myself" or they might think "yes, this is ideal I'll definitely have surgery" or whatever.

I dunno if it's 'cause I'm a bit of a tomboy or not but I honestly don't think being a guy would be that different. That said I would find temporarily having male genitals interesting. =P

when i was younger before i came out i used to fantasize about being the bloke - when i needed a little sexual thinking fodder. maybe that should have told me sooner that i prefered the idea of women :rolleyes:
so id defo have a few sexy things on my list - such as **** at every opportunity (ha), picking up a total stranger in a bar and heading to a hotel - this is theoretical, i dont need to worry about std's or my rep! its something id never do myself though!
id go out with the lads - to find out what it is they really get up to/ talk about :pac:

but other than that i have not much interest in it - im a real G with a capital G - the G is not coverd in pink 'legally blonde' style of girl though

bitter_lemon

is this just for the day?
i'm wake up and have 2 or 3 ****!
i'd chat up all the straight women in bars. well hopefully i'd get a ride or two too.
i'd pee a lot. i'd go shopping. i would scratch myself a lot.

yeah id have to try that - and sneaky readjustment in public places - see what the fuss is

not sure id wanna go shopping as a bloke - standing around scratching your head, holding someones purse etc. i defo prefer the female shopping experience!

might see - out of somewhat academical interest - how much beer i could hold as a lad.

apparently one ball sometimes gets caught so they HAVE to do it. and in general touching themselves a lot. maybe they are afraid that they are gone and they are just checking

Aishae

lmao - that reminded me. a cousin of mine way saying her toddler always holds his willy when getting into the bath. and wheen shes doing his night nappy etc if he cant see his willy while shes doing it he freaks out. he says hes afraid itll go away. lol...

perhaps male underwear needs a new design - if there is ball slippage. maybe a ball cup inbuilt. lol

I don't think there's any girls out there who WOULDN'T want to switch genders for a day. It would be interesting to have male genitalia just for the craic I wouldn't want it all the time though lol

Asides from that obvious stuff, I'd love it just because I'd be able to go for girls no matter what. Easier said than done, I know, but at least if I were a guy I'd have no worries about chatting a girl up. Wheras, being an in the closet lesbian, it's harder :P

hare05

On the sane side: shopping, clubbing, dancing, taking pictures, straight and lesbian fun if I have time.

On the fairly crazy side... Search for a way to make it permanent. If not possible, take tissue samples for cloning and work towards brain transplant research once I change back.

FOR SCIENCE!

I've been told it's very hard to cross your legs without rearranging if you're a man. I'd like to see how difficult. Don't ask me why, just interests me. I cross my legs a lot so the idea of having to rearrange stuff beforehand just seems odd to me.

Ya there's the issue of catching bits in a certain way that just doesnt feel pleasent. I pray for the day I can get rid of mine so that wont be a problem anymore :P

Aard

It's always amusing to hear girls talk about guys' bits n pieces!

===

Realistically, if I were a girl for a day, I'd probably:
- spend ages doing my hair, then **** it up
- take a look under the bonnet
- do my nails (ahem)
- be too afraid to pee because of how loud it'll be
- look enviously at other girls' bodies and give them daggers
- just do normal stuff to see how people react differently to girls.

Only slightly OT, but I think these ragecomics are funny -

I'd hate to be a woman for a day. Pretty much everything I do is fairly male orientated. I don't really know what I'd get up to.

Azure_sky

I personally think a lot of straight guys would love to swap genders for half an hour by themselves, while alone. Give them a day and they'd hate it though.

gcgirl

If I was a guy the first place I'd stop off is coppers I don't think i have much of an ideal woman just as long as it's got a hole and a pulse and pretty fit looking :-)

rainbow kirby

Enjoy being taken seriously when I talk about football, for once :pac:

Aishae

oh heres an idea - for 1 hr play at being a yob, in a suitable bar. scratch yourself and belch and have a pint. try all 3 at once anbd test out the 'men cant multitask' theory (jk!) :pac:

im not into sports myself... but i might go to a match to see what the craic is all about - from a blokely perspective! (i.e an inch or three higher than me :pac: - with a pint hidden in my drawers)

i asked my straight male workmate this very question in work today. hes a bit mad like me
he said he'd spend all day flicking his bean. then he'd spend hours flicking his bean in the cinema. i said to him that was a bit stupid and a bit of a waste. would he not have sex? he didn't want to have sex with a man but i said sure you could be a lesbian! he was delighted then with that thought.
oh and he would go on the open top tour bus and yes flick his bean and flash his fun bags to all the tourists.
so there ya go :rolleyes:

Probably go into a packed girls shower room start mestrating all over the place then run around screaming for someone to help me.

I just assumed that was one of the super powers women get. With their milk producing bewbs and transforming pelvic / vaginal bits to let a baby out n stuff. Crazy creatures the lot of 'em :pac:

This happens to me ALL the time! God, it's like you've a peephole into my life!

If I was a boy for a day? Ehhhh.. Yeah.. The sex..

Attempt to bed as many off my list of "unfortunately straight" men as possible, I think...

I'd be the same!

I guess I would try all the things males do just to see what it's like

According to my trans girlfriend the monthly anti androgen injection is even worse than the period.:pac:

Have to say 90% of straight males I have ever said this to, answer play with the funbags and flick the bean all day long. Have no interest myself in being a woman I like being a man far too much.

I can attest to being pretty cranky over the last couple of days, if that counts. I think it's the T coming back a bit, making me angry. but yay, I have a time of the month now! :pac:

Call me old fashioned but a nude dip in the 40 foot would definitely be a priority.

yeah but shoegirl wants to do it as a man

G.K.

See if I think being female is better than male or not and therefore whether to contemplate SRS or not.

hahaha! you want a period?? seriously? You can take the next 20 years worth of mine if you want!

and oh dear god bad choice of words indeed.

I'd like to have a flat chest. And run without boobies! And walk around topless in the sun!

If only we could switch bodies and it were just as easy as that. :P

I think i'd spend the day finding out if size really does matter :pac:
