Do you think there are more men who would rather be women...or more women who would rather be men.

Hard to tell because the women who dress like men dont tend to stand out...as much as a guy wearing a dress. :eek:

Are there any scientific stats on the subject?

More later...

If I had to take a guess... I would have to go with more women would rather be men.

If I had to take a guess... I would have to go with more women would rather be men.Because???

I can only go with with own personal thoughts on it, not scientific data.

Ok, but you didnt say WHY you believe this.

I would not miss....

Pregnancy and childbirth
Periods

Men seem to get better paying jobs
They don't have to worry about their appearance and aging as much as women

Etc...

I would not mind coming back as a man next time :)

Those are good points...but isnt there an abundance of perks as well?

To what being a woman? What perks do you think we have?

It depends on the individual case of course, but I believe most women would prefer staying at home raising their kids (if economically possible)...whereas most men would NOT prefer to go out and work for a living.

Also women have something nice to look at when encountering a mirror...whereas as men just run a comb over their head and say "yeah...so what?"

Also, for women romance is more like shopping...and less like mountain climbing. :p

It's hard to imagine why people would want to switch. I'm really satisfied with being a male, and I think that is the way I'm supposed to be. I'm not saying men are better, just that I'm supposed to like being a male by design; I'm built with male instincts.

I like having an internal locus of control. And also a wang. I'll stick with being a man.

Just thought of another perk:

A much larger surface area of a women's body is...erogenous!

See, its not that hard. :cool:

Madonna wants one too...:bugeye:

Whats all that 'internal locus' stuff about???

Maybe... but while women may orgasm 30-50% of the time, men orgasm 100% during sex. So who cares about erogenous zone surface advantage if you can't get off?

If you have an internal locus of control it means you feel like you're in control of the outcomes of situations. If you have an external locus of control, you feel powerless. You have no power and there's nothing you can do to make outcomes work out the way you want them to.

Ah, but women can have an orgasm once every half hour...men are only good for one every 12 hours...thereabouts.

M'kay...so whats that got to do with gender?

Ah, but women can have an orgasm once every half hour...men are only good for one every 12 hours...thereabouts.

I think you're wrong. Hugely wrong about this. Have you ever heard of multiple orgasms? Some women can orgasm one after another after another. It's quite varied. Some even have orgasms without trying, without any stimulation. Here's an article about it.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_Sexual_Arousal_Syndrome

The point, however, is not that you're wrong about them only being able to orgasms once every half an hour. It's that it usually doesn't happen at all. Much more usually, the guy does. And guys can only come once every 12 hours? What! Dude, I just got back to my place after having sex. I was at her place for about 2 hours and I fucked her three times. If I pace myself I can usually get off at least 4 or maybe 5 times in a span of 3 or 4 hours.

I think you got the numbers hugely wrong. But the point is, that men usually are the winners of orgasms. That's the end, isn't it? Who cares about "Oohh! the clitoris has more nerve endings! It's the only organ whose sole purpose is pleasure!" if they don't usually get off?

M'kay...so whats that got to do with gender?

What does a sense of control or sense of helplessness have to do with gender? I already said. Men have a lot more power and a lot more control than women. So they are less likely to feel helpless and are more likely to try to fix their situation and make it to their satisfaction. If you feel helpless, you're just going to sit around and mope and complain and do nothing to fix your problems.

No, I mean what does internal vs. exterior locus have to do with gender?

I'd say thats rather extraordinary...if true.

Maybe you're just a limp dick?

Ha well i enjoy being a woman

There are too many variables but peeing everywhere is an advantage for sure. Also, i depends where you live and how good looking you are. Good looking mostly if you want to use you physical appearance to get by.

Mostly women have it better. Plus they can talk about personal things with eachother escept if they dont like eachother then the can be brutal to eachother.

It depends on the individual case of course, but I believe most women would prefer staying at home raising their kids (if economically possible)...whereas most men would NOT prefer to go out and work for a living.

I'm not one of those women. I like working. If I had to be around my kids 24/7 I'd go insane. And how clean does a house have to be??

Also women have something nice to look at when encountering a mirror...whereas as men just run a comb over their head and say "yeah...so what?"

I would love not to curl my hair, shave my legs/pits, put on makeup...

Also, for women romance is more like shopping...and less like mountain climbing. :p

Romance is easy, men make it hard. Men think its about how much they spend, not the small gestures.

Ah, but women can have an orgasm once every half hour...men are only good for one every 12 hours...thereabouts.

Just cuz we can, doesn't mean we do. I know men here talk about the women they have made do this. I haven't heard from any women who do.

That's one thing about being a woman that's better than being a man. We can fake it, they can't.

You shallow lot... :bugeye:

LOL

I know men here talk about the women they have made do this. I haven't heard from any women who do. Good point...a lot of guys are given to hyperbole in this area.

Actually, I got that little nugget from Dr. Ruth... assuming shes done the field research. :bugeye:

Ah, but women can have an orgasm once every half hour...men are only good for one every 12 hours...thereabouts.

Huh? lol
Are you serious ? I can assure it's more than once every twelve hours...

I would love not to curl my hair, shave my legs/pits, put on makeup...
Just think of this as a ritual of reverence...honoring the sacred feminine and all that.

I sound like Dan Brown all of a sudden...:bugeye:

I think some of this multi-orgasmicism is really about 'dry' orgasms...something I'm not privy to.

I looked through the wiki article on the subject, and apparently those men who claim to be mutlti-orgasmic are really just shooting blanks.

Bam! You said it, Sister. Women may potentially have better and more orgasms, but they usually don't. However, women are very different from one another in that department according to books I've read. Some women are very easily provoked and others can't orgasm at all. Something like 2% of women have never and can't orgasm period. Overall, men are the winners of orgasms. Sex is yet another category where it's better to be a man, overall. There are exceptions, of course. But that should go without saying.

That's one thing about being a woman that's better than being a man. We can fake it, they can't.
:D
That gave me a pretty good laugh. I'm glad that you're happy because your anatomy makes you a better deceiver and liar. That's just great. Lying is wonderful and certainly underrated.

Nah, but seriously. What would you rather have... the ability to lie... or the lack of need to?

No, I mean what does internal vs. exterior locus have to do with gender?

Men have more internal locuses of control; women have external locuses of control. Men feel more empowered and more inclined to change their environment as they see fit. Women have less control. They feel more helpless. That's probably why women are more likely to be depressed than men on average. It's a feeling of control thing. There have been experiments on this stuff with animals. If an animal has the perception that he has control over his environment, he is much happier animal than one who's been given every indication that he is a slave to the system. Americans, have an internal locus of control. In many other places, especially in oppressive regimes, people have external locuses of control.

Hope that clears it up a little.

Men feel more empowered and more inclined to change their environment as they see fit. Women have less control.
I think it depends on the context. Women tend to have more control within the family than men, being like the glue that holds everything together.

Of course it depends on the context, but I'm talking about overall, in general.

Hmm well, that could be.. probable even. But does that really matter ?

Both men and women have their advantages and disadvantages its all how

you precieve it to be.
