Would You Trade?

[Skwim]

This was lifted from an old thread (January 20, 1010) that appeared in the Eros forum. I don't think it needs any explanation. Just give it a moment's consideration before answering. (Poll mechanics doesn't allow for four more answers, those of bisexuals, so they've been left out).

 

[Saint Frankenstein]

No. I'm already a transsexual as it is.

I think it would be fun especially if my wife swapped as well.

 

[Quintessence]

By "trade genders" you really mean "trade sexes," right? Because I don't have a gender to trade...

I wish my wife and I could swap for a month . I think it would be insightful.

 

[Kilgore Trout]

I'd love to experience female privilege for a month.

"Trade sexs" is much better (I lifted the question as-is from its source without paying attention.)

There's another issue here with options, "I am a homosexual male[/female], and I would." I already know what its like to drool over a guy.

 

[Saint Frankenstein]

You could've added bisexual options by consolidating the genders in the poll. "I'm a heterosexual male or female and I would" and so on.

 

[Alison Wonderland]

I probably would. And I doubt many people wouldn't simply because of the avenue for experience/exploration. Would be a lot of fun.

 

[Alison Wonderland]

No. I'm already a transsexual as it is.

Would you prefer to be transsexual or an actual woman?

I certainly could have, but was more interested in how males differ from females, which at this point seems to be significant: 86% (6 out of 7) of the heterosexual males would trade whereas only 66% (2 out of 3) of the heterosexual females would. (And yes, I do recognize this is a terribly small sampling, but is expected to be so.)

Gay male voted "would not".
It is theoretically possible someone could talk me into it as a "learning adventure". But it would be a tough sell.
I like being male. I don't want to be anything else. I can understand FtM completely, MtF leaves me totally puzzled. I feel no need to get more in touch with my feminine side or anything like that. And I don't think I would get much more grasp of life as a woman in just a month. The experience seems far too broad and deep to understand much more by spending a month as a 58-year-old female in my current circumstances.

Okay, hetero male, and I answered yes...provided I can select who I would change with...

I'm a trans man, not a trans woman.

This actually brings up another point.
Would I still be a white 6'4" "not bad looking for her age" etc.? Would I be a heterosexual female? Would I just grow boobs and have my beard fall out?
Inquiring minds want to know.

I'm a trans man, not a trans woman.

Well, then I'll restate: would you prefer to be transsexual or an actual man?

 

[Saint Frankenstein]

I am an "actual" man. I would prefer to have an XY body, but I'm still a male, regardless.

 

[VioletVortex]

I am a bisexual male with heterosexual leanings, and I'd certainly trade for a month.

As with everyone's else, your height and weight would change proportionally to the sex you switched to. If you are a male 5% taller than the average male you would be a female 5% taller than the average female. You would lose your penis, acquire a vagina and breasts, and change anything else that differentiates females from males. If you're a homosexual male you'd be a homosexual female.
