Being male has disadvantages too (I've always hated being born male).

Did you read this thread?

No, but thanks for the recommendation.

And I know being male comes with its own set of problems. It'd be nice if people didn't think they could separate people in their entireties into only two categories and all the presumptions and baggage that come with them. That'd solve a lot of problems...

I'm a girl. I like being a girl. And I cannot imagine me as a boy, despite I like so many mainly things- many people (mostly men) thinks that that is cute and cool. When man like girly things people told, that he is weird. So I can like what i want, and nobody told me any bad word. It's unfair for men.

You girl are a tough one, I like that. I usually judge a girl by their personality and you're the one who stays true to herself. Being man is hard but people look up to them as leaders, gentlemen. That's the good part.

I'm guessing because girls have more stereotypes than guys do. Both males and females have their disadvantages, fair to say. lol

 

Yeah, the genders thing can be frustrating sometimes because you're always being viewed through that lens to an extent - even if people don't box you in with it.

That said, both of the sexes have things they're more or less allowed to do. Where I live (US) it's considered more socially acceptable for women to do things like dress in a masculine style and be sensitive, while men can get a lot of flak for dressing in a feminine style or being seen crying.

Pick your poison, I guess...

There's nothing great about being female, and there's nothing great about being male. You are what you are, and you don't really have a choice to shrug off this "box" you're talking about, so unfortunately, you have to live with what you got.

What's so great about being human?

Answer that and you'll be golden.

Yeah, what you're all saying makes a lot of sense.

In my freshman year of college, I thought I was pangender and that I might be transgender. The reason was that I wanted to be male (and actually, what I was wanting was not to be male, but male privilege) and that I didn't have the same want to be female. Then I realized that I can't have a desire to be something that I already am. I guess I just forgot that.

Thanks for all your comments. You've all really cheered me up.

i am a girl and hate it I'm 10 and 1/2 and i don't feel like I'm a girl i don't like being stereotyped. my friends ditched me cause i like my little pony and I'm a ''tom boy'' i hate that saying.
