If a divine power offered you the option to go through life as a 100% woman- would you?
Same question to any women reading (obviously the trade is to be a man though)
Would you trade lives with a women, if so, why/why not?

No, I don’t think I could survive as a shared hive mind /s
Honestly, nah I don’t think I could. Most women I know require way more patience and social awareness than I am capable of possessing.
No way. Don’t need that kind of drama
Would I relive my life as one or just like continue on from here as one?
Look, I know we have it much harder in dating. But you couldn’t pay me a billion dollars to trade lives with a woman. Count your blessings boys.
No, my penis is awesome
Nope. They have it rough from childhood (in my country)
Maybe I could swap lives with my partner just to let her live my privileged life.
Be generally more capable, less lonely, and live longer? Sign me the hell up.
I would if I could keep my identity and my wife. She’s bi and would be cool with it. And I’d be rid of my man body that I hate.
I can’t imagine I would trade my life for anyone with a different trait to be honest. I wouldnt choose being a woman, not black, a different country, or someone in a different social class than I started as
I mean, I’d like to live this life out though. But if I could be reborn as one I’d definitely do that
No, I don’t think that I would be interested in doing this. I enjoy being a man, and although I don’t know what it’s like to be a woman, I’m not sure I would want to.
Yes.
I would just marry up and not have to work. And if the guy does not like it, I would use our western laws to divorce, take half of his assets and repeat.
I would absolutely want to live my next life as a man. Not even a question. Even if I was short and had a small d.
Being a woman sucks in pretty much every aspect. Mentally emotionally and physically
I’m too used to being who I am but there are some factors that I just look at and can’t believe how easy it is for women these days.
I’d much rather some sorcery happens where everyone views me as a woman, but I get to keep my stats.
I’m not even finished with this life as a man.
Obviously if you know anything about me. But I have always totally admired women
No
No. If I had the choice, I would live all my lives as a man. Every. Single. One. I disliked the idea of being a woman long before I ever really thought I was a man. It was only as an adult that I understood that most men don’t actually feel this way. To me, being a man has so few downsides compared to being a woman. Being a woman seems like 95% downsides to me (no offense), while being a man is like, 10% downsides.
Though I honestly really dislike the idea of “past lives” or whatever, it makes me feel like less of an individual and more of just a faceless cog in a machine. Idk why so many people are caught up with the idea. I am much more comfortable with being one person, one being, one life. Why should there be more than that?
Haha very interesting. Out of curiosity I’ve asked several men and women if they would switch to the opposite gender in the past years and the near total majority said that they would not (I’d guestimate I’ve probably asked about 20ish people this question in the past 10 years about same for both male and female).
I am a male and would not give up standing to pee and not having to deal with periods. But that is because that is what I am used to. People are used to their physical attributes, hormones, and developmental differences that, in my experience and curiosity of this question, make it very hard to give up your own cisgender.
That being said, my sample size was very low and obviously everyone has their unique experience.
Respectfully, helllll no
I couldn’t last with the constant need to socialize and weaponize information.
Nope. I prefer the company of men for everything whether it be friendship, romance, or sex. Men are absolutely amazing.
I don’t think so. Being a man is fulfilling. I’m not saying that it isn’t being a woman. Bodily functions like periods and child rearing are not processes I want to deal with. Dating would be easier but that’s something you can grow in as a man.
I would love the idea of unlimited sex. But hate the idea of not wanting it.
The way the title reads, I get to do some Freaky Friday shit. Do I get to be Oprah?
babae ako. id rather be a man. like, same person just with male genitelia, ganon. there’s so much responsibilities, obligations, and expectations from women from beauty and their capacity to build a life and their skills. sa lalaki, they’re just expected to be something “great”. i mean, most of men r just expected to provide. kahit magulo yan sa bahay, okay lang, basta “nag aabot”. expected lang sakanila e maging magaling sa isang bagay at kumita ng malaki. sa babae, bata pa lang, andami nang kailangan matutunan hindi lang para hasain yong kakayahan para buhayin ang sarili kundi buhayin at pangalagaan lahat ng nasa paligid niya. haha
No because if I was a woman, I wouldn’t have a beard like I have
I live in a western country in the 21st century. Literally no better time or place to take that deal. Onlyfans millionaire into passive investor. Then start university and become so accomplished people assume the onlyfans account is a look-a-like because nobody with a doctorate would do onlyfans surely.
Lol no of course not. You mean to tell me that every society on earth has commodified my body years before I’m old enough to understand why? And every time I pass through my front door I have to consider my basic safety?
Yes because that way my partner will never ask me if I would still love him if he were a worm
I’d do it for a day, sure. A week, maybe? But to just swap out? No thanks. I’m too accustomed to life as a dude, I’m sure the culture shock alone would be mind breaking.
I like opening my own jars and lifting my own stuff. I like opening doors for older ladies who always say thank you and call me “sweet”. I wouldn’t want to give up dudehood.
Hell no, to have no actual power and to not live in objective reality doesn’t sound great long term
Nope. Fuck periods and menopause.
Nope. I already lived as a woman once, I’ve had enough of it (Trans guy)
Yes. I really hate being a woman. Just getting rid of periods and boobs and more than likely my autoimmine condition would make the trade worth it.
Depends on the woman I’d be trading with.
There are good and bad things about being a man, and there are good and bad things about being a woman. Depending on who you are (rather than what gender) will determine whether there’s more good than bad or not.
I’m a walking stereotype. I’d be fine as my equal opposite stereotype but no thanks.
The entire comment section experiencing gender dysphoria
Bleeding every month? Hormone swings? Not penetrating women with my penis? Less athletic ability?
No thanks I will pass.
Throw in character customization and I’m in.
So you’re saying I as a man could live life in easy mode? Yes. 100%. Women think their lives are so hard when 99% of their problems are self inflicted or just nonsense they make up to victimize themselves for sympathy. They have no clue what it’s like to be a man, to live knowing your only value is how much you make. To live life knowing that you can make every right choice, fully support your woman, and she’ll still run off with some other dude then divorce you and take half your shit. If I could be a woman id be rich and retired at 25 onto starting a family.
Nah Im fine with being myself. Being a woman is awesome and all but being yourself is the best.
Periods, menopause, an endless barrage of guys constantly trying to get me to talk to them with varying ranges of threat from non-existent to get-ready-to-be-stabbed at all hours?
Pregnancy?
F*** no.
Don’t get me wrong I maintain guys have plenty of issues and dramas just for being men too, obviously.
But I still maintain chicks get the shorter end of the stick.
Fucking hell no!!
Can you imagine some hairy guy trying to mount you?!? Fuck dat shit.
On a serious note though, no. Seems like generally too much of a faff and spend half your life your pissing around wasting energy sweating the small stuff at the expense of achieving big stuff.
Nah im good
Are we talking reincarnation? Sure. I don’t have any particular reason.
Depends if im
Pretty or not. I wouldn’t wanna be an ugly girl but a pretty girl for a couple of months sounds fun.
Nah
But then again I wouldn’t trade lives with any other man so…
At first I thought yes, just so I could try to understand why they, lie, they cheat, and steal. Then I was reminded of an old friend, and realized we all the same…
If I were re-born then yes as I’d want the experience and different perspectives as it would be interesting
