    And also men should have periods too.

    Itd be hilarious if men had periods, all of a sudden, heat packs, tampax/pads and chocolate would be free on the HSE and youd get a few days allowance off work every month.

    In addition a button to switch off your mind to relax would be nice

    Have fit looking bodies all the time regardless of large amounts of food, booze and no exercise.

    Do we really have to grow old, why can't we just stop ageing at 25 and just die at 100.

    Immunity to all diseases and illness. Let's be honest, a life risk free from cancer, aids and everything else would be great. People could smoke without worrying about about lung cancer, or drink without worrying about liver failure etc. No family tragedies caused by early deaths(At least illness related anyway).

    Toes that can stub doors! :D

    No more insomnia. Being able to fall asleep when you want just like flicking a switch.

    Less sleep say 2 hours, sleep is a waste of life.

    I'd make the top of heads really hard metal so if someone dropped somthing heavy on it I wouldn't have the banging headache I have now. Or the huge lump. Gotta love them movies where they get battered in the head and are able to just carry on regardless.

    Greater control of the penis.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,293 ✭✭✭1ZRed


    Decide when we want to be fertile instead of having to avoid getting someone pregnant unintentionally

    An elephants trunk, one of the most amazing addendums in nature, it can be a snorkel a hose a shovel, it can smell things a mile off it can pick up a car or a dime.

    Hmmmm but where to put it.

    Better designed lower backs,no menstrual cycle, no diseases like MS and cancer and anything in between. Skin that doesn't burn.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,238 ✭✭✭humbert


    To be like Wolverine. Recover instantly from any wound and have unbreakable bones. That'd be nice.

    As was said - controlled ovulation.

    Some mammals already have induced ovulation (cats) but I would go further and say induced ovulation that requires a specific act by both the male and the female.

    This would remove the risk of unplanned pregnancy and share the power to control pregnancy with both partners as well as increasing the likelyhood of getting pregnant when desired.

    Definitely less body hair. No more pubes, hairy backs, legs, chests, unruly eyebrows. And that's just the women :D

    Rock hard teeth that can withstand our modern sugar and processed-food filled diet would be good.
    or how about constant replacement of teeth like cold blooded animals.

    though the voice box is kinda handy for speech


    only humans and other primates, bats and guinea pigs need vitamin C


    more internal support for our guts, would not like to wear a truss


    sort out the blind spot in our eyes

    give us mantis shrimp vision

    the ability to survive on grass like the Gildea Baboons

    limb and organ regeneration


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,184 ✭✭✭marshbaboon


    Give women testicles so they wouldn't be as mad.

    Obviously you'd stick them inside to retain the aesthetics.

    How would you improve the human body ( if you were "the maker" )

    Limbs that regrow if severed, built in anti cancer cells, telescopic vision + night vision, regenerative organs, self limiting nail growth, a natual abilty to swim like a dog (without lessons), being able to run backwards at speed :))

    get rid of the need to pee. Its so bloody annoying when you have a tiny bladder like mine having to put the laptop down, get off the sofa and go all the way down the hall to the bathroom. Annoys me every hour or so.

    Not so sure that the accidental pregnancy should be wiped out altogether though as then I wouldn't have my older brother, younger brother or little sister! I would be an only child.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 614 ✭✭✭beardedmaster


    Retractable male genitals.
