Personally never been bothered being male.

I like bawdy particularly morbid humor, don't like spending too much time dressing in the morning, hate crying or any of the emotional traits associated with femininity, definitely could imagine myself as a stern father never as a caring mother.

I was going to recommend that they make you a mod here too.

Interesting how in my family, my sisters are easily the dirtiest people I've ever met.

Well, remember, I'm working with traits that aren't considered particularly feminine, obviously, in practice, nobody is 100% fitting of all traits.

I actually think sex humor is far more popular with the fairer sex. I mean, if you ever look into female directed comedy 90% of it is sex humor(Friends, Sex in the City, etc.).

Violent humor tends to be a more macho thing. Not always, I know worlds of women who are into violent humor. It's just, I've known many more who are scarred, or put off by it. Men can be too. But only if they're particularly jocky, or Christian. But not as much the nerdy type of masculine.

I too can vouch for this.

"Not sure" because I don't particularly like the way my gender is treated, or targeted by products and the media, and between the two, I know I have the short end of the stick, I see it on a regular basis, and it makes me angry.

I'd be satisfied with my gender if everyone else treated it like something to be satisfied with.

I honestly think it's fairly two sided. I mean, Men are really hit hard with the homophobia 'gotta love dat football or yer a ***!!!' philosophy at a very early age.

Which is so ironic since (American) Football is extremely homoerotic.

This is true, and the male stereotype hasn't eluded me as something unfairly forced in society, but it all comes back to "female qualities" being undesirable.

I've mentioned before that I'm unsatisfied with mine, and lately that dissatisfaction has become even greater. The main reason is that I've moved over to another circle of friends, most of whom are girls. I've always been able to identify with women more than other men, but those godforsaken gender barriers make sure that isn't returned. They do a lot of stuff together that just wouldn't be socially acceptable for a man to do, and I hate that because it means I'll never truly be able to connect to them thanks to the stupid ****ing coin flip that landed on tails for my birth.

As for why I would rather be female in the first place? It's not something that I've figured out truly, and I think I've mentioned that before. On the exterior I show very little in the way of feminine qualities, but at the same time I sjow just as little masculinity. My curse is that I've managed to set up the expectations of those around me to be almost completely different to the person I truly am, so nobody would ever be able to spot any kind of supressed feminism in me, and nobody would be able to take me seriously if I did suddenly try and be womanly, which is why I know deep down that I'll never go trans as much as I'd like to. As well as that I'm physically just an unattractive, poorly shaped bloke. Not that I'd care how attractive I would end up if I did suddenly have a genie fall down and give me the chance to suddenly become female, but my point is that even if I took the extreme step and got a full-on sex change I'd still look like a bloke.
