Okay now this could get to be a bit crazy here asking this question, but I was just sitting here thinking how glad I am to be a woman. I mean being a man you have so many standards to live up to. One is working all the time. Now being the wife of a hard working man I know. He works from morning till night, rarely does he just sit in front of the TV and do nothing. He gets in his baseball games, but work,work, work is just not for me. I am happy around here cleaning the house doing laundry and makeing meals. I lost my job six months ago. So are you happy with your gender, or would you rather be something diffent and if so why?

I see it as growing up in the years you accept your genre. I have to say I do enjoy being a male. I do enjoy having the masculinity of a guy, hard working, confident and go through that adventurous peek of getting to know women. If to say about being a women, I'm glad I am not one. If I were I'd probably be a lesbian....LOL! And of course it is much painful and aggravating for women that go through the stage of their menstrual cycle. Now here's something to consider or you know that even women have many standards to live by and of course can be very hard working too. Sad to say, as me being a hard worker at my job I have seen women work harder that most of the guys I work with. Sorry to hear about your job loss, but don't lose hope, I'm sur you'll come across a job soon.

I actually love being a woman. enjoy shopping, make-up, hair...primping. I only wish that society allowed women to be more traditional. It is so hard now-a-days for a woman to stay at home and raise a family. I wish society would allow people to live a more traditional life. Women should be able to have equal rights and all but that doesn't mean they should have to live like a man.

You have exactly the right thoughts its not fair that women cannot stay home and raise their kids anymore. It no wonder society has the problems it has. I totally agree with you.

Hello Caroll!
you have started a discussion which will go on and on and really, I don't think it can ever be resolved.

In my opinion, I am very happy with being a male. True, you have a lot more responsibilities as a male member of the family as you grow up but then with it comes a lot of freedom as well. Here in India, even in the Metros, girls are not allowed to venture out of the house as and when they want but we do not have any such problems. I relish my responsibilities as well so I'm very happy:)

I am a woman and I am very happy being one.I know this question keeps cropping up in everyone's mind.I did come across a very interesting poem which I would like to share with you. Hope you like it.
WOMAN
For every strong woman tired of faking weakness
There is a weak man tired of faking strength
For every woman tired of faking ' foolishness'
There is a man tired of having to act as a 'model of wisdom'
For each woman tired of being labelled as 'an emotional female'
There is a man who has been denied the right to cry and be sensitive
For every sportswoman who's feminity is questioned
There is a man forced t compete in order to give testimony to his virility
For every woman tired of being considered a sexual object
There is a man concerned about his s-----l performance
For Every woman who has not had access to a dignified salary
There is a man forced to bear the economic responsibility of another human-being
For every woman who ignores 'the secrets of car mechanics'
There is a man who does not know how to boil an egg
For every woman that steps towards freedom
There is a man who rediscovers the road to liberty
The human race is a two winged bird
One is a female the other a male
Unless both wings are equally developed
The human race will not be able to fly
"Now more than ever the cause of Woman is the cause of Mankind"
I truly enjoyed this poem.Both genders have got their minuses and pluses.Still I am very happy to be a woman. thumbupwink

I'm perfectly happy with being a guy. Here in India sadly woman don't get the same freedom as men do. Especially when they are in their teens a lot more restrictions are imposed on women. For example a girl child has to return home by 8 at night in the very least. Being a boy the restrictions are a bit less tight and hence i'm able to enjoy my life a bit more.

I am okay with my gender. But, sometimes I wish I was a boy, to be able to do some stuffs. hard work for example. I still believe that besides the physical differences, and abilities. Women can still do things that men do, maybe even better. It applies, most of the time.:-)

I am happy that way I am, being a woman. We can do things that men can't do like give birth, in the same way that men can do things that women can't do. It has its ups and downs as well. But then, just be happy for who you are.:=)

I am actually, I love being a woman! Although i think its stressful sometimes and we have to go through so much pain with periods and kids if we have them, i think all that is worth it. I dont think i would want to be a man, because as you say, there is so much you are expected to do, so many standards to live up to! We get away quite lightly in that department i think
