We all know that we're the more beautiful of the two sexes.

By far the taughest thing I've had to face as a woman has to be our "perceived" role in society. I'm not sure how deep of a response you're interested in, but this question requires a complete discussion of its own. let me know if u're interested in more.

Yes, I definately would.

Beats me, probably what I don't suspect.

 

hope this helps

if you don't want to post them, please PM me.

 

--------

1. what is the best thing about being the sex you are?

 

2. what is the most difficult thing about being the sex you are?

 

3. a. if you could change your sex for one week, would you?

b. what might you discover?

Harut ... you are only interested in responces from girls/women/grandmothers ?

 

IF I were a girl, this is what I would say (in case this helps):

 

1. what is the best thing about being the sex you are?

 

I have the ability to drive, talk on the cel phone, put on make-up, eat breakfast, pay attention to the kids in the back seat, think about what groceries I need to buy, and listen to music on the radio ALL AT THE SAME TIME. (There is NO way a man could do this ... maybe 2 or 3 of the above but NOT all at the same time).

 

2. what is the most difficult thing about being the sex you are?

 

Society tells me that I should try to be attractive (esp to men). If I try to appeal to men, other women hate me. If I try NOT to appeal to men so I can befriend other women, society shuns me ... it's a viscous cycle with NO solution.

 

3. a. if you could change your sex for one week, would you?

 

Hell YES.

 

b. what might you discover?

 

a) How painful it is to be kicked you know where

How simple it is to be a male.

c) The joys of not having to worry about how I look ALL the time ... I can get up, shower, eat breakfast, be in the car and ready to go in 2 mins flat!

 

If you want the grandma perspective as well, let me know

[Harut]

thank you very much nellie jan.

 

yes, there could be a long discussion about this. but your answers are fine for my survey.

 

anybody else?

[Harut]

vay, Sip, vay.

 

for sake of fun, give us grandma's perspective too.

1. what is the best thing about being the sex you are?

 

being able to be me extravagant in the way I look, and experiment in that...when men dress up everybody immedatiately thinks they are gay.

 

as Sip said; being able to focuss on a lot of things at the same time (it really seems like women are better in that)

 

the whole baby thing; getting pregnant, feeling that a child is growing in you...i think it must be something very special

 

being able to be irrational sometimes (i probably have to expain this..)

 

...

 

2. what is the most difficult thing about being the sex you are?

 

emotional ups and downs; women seem to have way more fluctuation in their emotions, which can be tiring, especially for those around you.

 

i work in mens world, so i constantly have to prove my intelligence.

 

3. a. if you could change your sex for one week, would you?

 

yep,of course!

 

b. what might you discover?

 

that i would be much better in sports and have more strength.and maybe if i'd start to think like a guy i would understand how men see women.

[Harut]

thank you very much Hasmiek.

 

Sip, i'm still weiting for the grandmo.
