Being a man...

[Chessmistress]

How is it?
Please, NSGs, I'm not trying to troll, this thread is actually about your impressions, and it could be even your specifical issues, why not?
I cannot state my opinion about this thing, due obiouvs reasons: not being a man, I cannot understand how is it.

Probably a lot like being a woman: mostly very hard, often scary, sometimes neither of those things. I tend to think a lot of talk about the differences between genders is blown massively out of proportion. It sounds sentimental but fundamentally we’re all human.

[Dahon]

Eh, I dunno, I've never experienced being a woman, nor do I suffer from gender dysphoria. Still, I'm grateful I can't get pregnant and don't have to give birth, I guess? Being circumcised is nothing in comparison.

Honestly, myself. Being part of a Polish-English mix family where the men on the Polish side of the family are cursed with Giantism, it's a ruddy pain, is what is it. Especially in the UK. I'm stuck hitting my head a good percentage of the time on the tops of doorways. ......Also get stared at quite a bit because of it, but regardless. ..That's more of just a "me" thing though. Not every guy is cursed with Giantism. It's as rare as actually seeing money on the ground and it not being a low value coin. ....I just hope in the future, leg shortening is an option with surgery.

Depends on the personality and personal issues of the person. Unlike a woman, we have easier time in the public restroom because we don't have to wait in line.

Well, as I'd imagine it is for almost everyone, life tends to get more complicated as you get older, rather than simpler; no matter what happens, or what you do.
Although doing stuff usually improves the situation more than doing nothing. (Except self-mutilation, that almost always ends badly)

As for "physical things", not much to think about, 'try not to think about it'... and thankfully a non-issue unless y'get stabbed there, in which case it's kinda a big deal. Just like it is to get stabbed just about anywhere. There's a bit of a tight package of nerve-clusters, but it's actually harder to reach than some may pretend it is.

Strained (thigh) muscles are strained muscles, and having a hard time sitting down is probably not all too different. Mostly everything else you're concerned about usually has the kindness of moving out of the way (or has to get pushed or nudged out of the way) when it can. (there's still the 1%er chance you'll somehow pin yourself under your own leg, but that's about as common as tripping over untied shoelaces)

That's about the limited scope of a PG-rated answer to your questions.

All other social expectations are usually foisted upon the individual by others. So what did you really expect for an answer? Because that answer is the answer.

And if taking a piss still feels like a minigame, you haven't pissed often enough for the novelty to wear off.

I typed this while forgetting my coffee mug is still empty after a 56 hour week, a parking ticket, and a car with a busted front end ($1.5k to fix) and transmission issues (kicks out of drive at 15mph). Fun note: when you work 10 hour days, most auto-garages are closed whenever you are off from work, good luck taking a personal-day, that ain't gonna fly... so fire up the DeLorean time-machine and make myself some time to get me petty shit together so I can help take care of my nephew since my step-sister is still unemployed and being jealously crabby about it.

If you read this in some sort of cartoonishly aloof professor's voice, I'm not sure wheter to clap or to ridicule you. I'll probably do both.

It's nice not being property

[Radiatia]

It's very difficult, just like being a woman is very difficult, but for different reasons - there are different social pressures, and also a lot less support for you if things go wrong.

[Valrifell]

I lack a proper frame of reference for a fair comparison. I've always been a cis male and will never know otherwise, so I don't quite know how to answer this question.

Alright, I guess? A 7/10, maybe?

[Vallermoore]

Similar in many ways to being a woman with certain differences...


Unless I am unlucky or idiotic enough to end up in prison, my chance of being raped is extremely low.
Unprotected sex won't make me pregnant
I don't have gender discrimination to worry about-my unemployment is my own fault
I can urinate in the street if there are no witnesses to it

[Auze]

It's alright overall, neither better not worse than the other option, I presume. Overall, a good experience.

And I have always been jealous of men because of that.

Seriously, one time when I was in high school I really, really had to pee, but there were about 10-15 girls in line and only 4 stalls in the bathroom. If I thought I could have gotten away with it I would have gone to the men's room. But instead I stood in line and silently prayed I wouldn't wet my pants.

Has its perks.

[Togeria]

It's like being a girl except you gain the ability of being able to pee everywhere with ease.

Girls can too if they're bold enough.

its like being a girl only difference are the nuts

[Dagnia]

Having a job and a place is not an option, it's an obligation. Unemployment, even if you have more than enough money to get you through to your next job, is shameful. Living with your parents, even more so. None of the women I know have any issues with either, and many seem to take it for granted that they will be taken care of by someone.

[Historikal]

How can one make a claim to know truly what it is to one gender when they have not experienced both?
The closest one might get would be a transgendered person.

[Ifreann]

Being cis, it isn't really like anything. Like how if your clothes are comfortable you stop being consciously aware of them.
