Writer's Block: Gender Bender

[packbat]

Do you ever want to be of the opposite sex? If so, what attracts you to the idea? If not, what repels you? View other answers

Yes, I do. I am not sure what attracts me to the idea - it's not like we're not talking about the ambrosial Rocky Road brownies they sell at the co-op - but given the power to swap back and forth, I would be interested in trying it.

Ironically, what repels me is easy: the scope of sexism - and worse - in this world is staggering.

I'm still curious, though.

It would be interesting to see the physical differences in the way the other sex perceives the world, but not too different because one would assume the question means retaining one's mind during and after the swap.

You've a good point there, actually.

A longer life expectancy and being able to concentrate on more different things at once. Are you kidding me?

Those would be nice, but I'm fairly sure the standard deviation within each gender is much larger than the difference between the genders for both (unfortunately).

But yes, the swap does have benefits, I won't deny it.
