You are wrong. You assume that all females wish to be female and all males wish to be female. You don't have enough information to get an accurate statistic.
Kill a man, and you are an assassin. Kill millions of men, and you are a conqueror. Kill everyone, and you are a god.

You'd need 4 options in the poll, 2 for each gender to make that assessment.

Indeed. It could truly be many MORE males that wish to be female, and most of the females going male.

Also, the question isn't whether you wish you were one or the other, but rather which would you choose to be if you were given a choice before you were born, knowing what you know now. In other words, it has nothing to do with whether you would undergo some sort of magical sex change if given the opportunity. At least, that's not how I read it...

I'm quite happy being a female. Sure, periods suck, but as I don't get those anymore, it's not really an issue.

Childbirth is also not really an issue. Sure, adoption might be complicated, but it's still feasible. And I get multiple orgasms.

It makes me laugh that some people seem to be in competition for who has to endure the most pain, men or women. As MC said (and probably others too, it's very late and I'm tired), you can't compare apples with apples here. Period pain and childbirth is completely different to unfortunate collisions with genitals, and the sexes (and individuals) have different pain thresholds.

I can say though Billy, I think the reason you don't know any women who endure severe pain is that most women just don't go around advertising their most personal health details, it's not exactly a subject to discuss in mixed company, over coffee.

"BOY AM I HAVING A REALLY PAINFUL PERIOD RIGHT NOW. So, how are the kids? Seen any good movies lately?"

Having said that though there will always be the odd girl here and there who just loves to chat about every detail and how much she has to endure every month (UGH). There are always exceptions to the rule.

I can tell you though, that I personally *have* doubled over in pain, sobbing, and been unable to move for 10 or 20 minutes or even an hour, several times in one day, several days per month, so I can tell you that it does happen (and I have a very high pain threshold). It might not be the same type of pain as you might feel if someone kicked you in the crotch, but it is severe pain nonetheless, and cannot be discounted as just making me (and other women) "very uncomfortable".

Just because most women hide how they are feeling doesn't mean they aren't feeling it. That's not to say that men are weak for dropping to their knees if they get kicked in the groin, but from my experience women just tend to grit their teeth and keep these things to themselves, so you may never realise how much someone is suffering.

The worst pain I ever felt though was when I had glandular fever several years ago, and every gland in my body was horribly swollen and tender. I was in constant pain, I literally couldn't eat, because any food in my stomach put too much pressure on the glands inside me. I vomited for 3 straight hours in a public toilet - every time I thought I was ok, I had to run back again. I couldn't sleep because I could never find a position that didn't hurt, and I had to walk around for 3 weeks with only a robe on (ooh baby) because I couldn't wear any clothes - anything with a waistband or that put any sort of pressure against me caused unbearable pain. A friend of mine can vouch for it, I was at his 21st party and spent most of the night doubled over, rocking myself and whimpering - couldn't sleep it off, I just had to wait it out. Painkillers did nothing.

FUN FUN FUN.

Now, having said all that, I would much rather have to deal with period pain than say a sore throat - because at least with period pain I know what to expect, how long it should last, and that it can be alleviated slightly in a few different ways. I can't stand having a sore throat, not knowing if it will get worse, will it last for 2 days or 2 weeks, not being able to swallow or speak properly, having to eat those godawful lozenges and generally feeling miserable. Period pain is much worse if you score the actual discomfort, but for me it is more manageable. Bit weird I guess, but that's how I am.

My personal opinion on the actual poll is that being female can be a real pain sometimes, there's a lot of upkeep involved, but I wouldn't change that, I like being a girl. Plus we're all soft in the right spots, and we smell good and have nice hair...

I would love to be a guy for a week or something. I'd even be curious to see what it does feel like to be kicked in the crotch. Just out of curiosity.

:P

Being a female gives some advandages, first and most stupid mammals (men) can do anything for you, even just for a flash of your shirt, and i'm one of those that believes that sex is a weapon :P
Secondly we live on times where we can do absolutely anything, we aren't imprisoned in our houses anymore and we have the same opportunitues as the "strong" ones. But that is almost, because even on civilised nations there are still racism against us on jobs etc. It's unfair, but at least i can balance that *blinking eye*

I wonder what it would be to be a man sometimes, to have that "power(?)", and that thing between your legs :lol:, i would find it uncomfortable.
Which i do sometimes myself with my boobies...I feel like a cow some hot days... :|

As for the period, nothing can pass that pain. I know some friends that really don't have such pain and they just some blood. But my period is very strong and most of the times the first day it's very disturbing and intervenes in my social life. My mother had this, so i guess its genetic. It's not the hormones so much as the pain, and even if i take Depon it still hurts.
As for the "baby" thing, i would want to be a mother.....someday. I still want to feel my life and being a mother seems like a far away dream for now. :happyroll:
But i don't believe there's problem with accidental pregnasies, those happens to women who don't take care. Ofcourse there's a 1% that all can go wrong but that's another story.

To end, i wonder how it would be to be a "power" man ,
but i most love being a woman as one of the most positives is to have my baby inside me and feel it in the future...

Top that sissies :mrgreen:

I like being male. I get to be a forceful, stubborn asshole most of the time, I don't bleed for days on end as a matter of course, I don't have to deal with stereotypes, girls are attracted to me, and I put on muscle easily.
On the other hand, I'm nearly constantly fighting the urge to kill, and cycling gets painful when your feet slip off the pedals.

That said, I'd like to see what it's like being a girl for a while. Looks a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't wanna stay there.

Yeah, it's not like men are ever stereotyped or anything.

I would reply, but I refuse to stop and ask for directions on how to do so or to read a manual on the topic.

[quote="MissCheetah";p="408190"]For most males, getting kicked is not common after childhood or cessation of contact sports.[/quote]

You've obviously never met my ex-girlfriend. She won't slap people, but the occasional kick in the nuts is a definite risk.
And on the eighth day God said, "Okay Murphy. You take over."
