(The second is optional, of course, but if it's going to happen it's always the women doing it.) I certainly don't envy those things. Except for the added vulnerability of being hit in the sack, it seems men don't have something to endure to even this out.
On the other hand, women are beautiful and graceful, and men look fucking ridiculous. Especially when it comes to the genitals. Also, I suspect women can enjoy sex to a more powerful extreme than men, and can have multiple orgasms. Blokes just get the one, unless you believe those lying erotic stories.
I half agree. I'd love to have the natural strength of a man. We women do get short changed there. But with modern medicine pregnancy and giving birth, not to mention breastfeeding are joys I would not give up. But I had easy pregnancies and if labor and delivery or producing milk were competitive sports I would have been a contender.
There other things I love about being female: multiple orgasms; being the sex people want to see naked, and especially longer life span. Also I have more life choices. I get to choose first to have a career, then to stay at home, then to go back. House husbands have a hard time of it.
That said, this is the only time in history that I'd prefer to be a woman. Go back even to 1950 and I'd rather be a man. And even now only because I was born in the West.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
