I'm sure he won't be the only one ecstatic with a Pokemon thread.
If there's a heaven, I want it to be Pallet Town.

But I'm not going to go into detail all of the circumstances in which I was disadvantaged because of my gender because they are pretty personal, and last time it just ended badly for everyone and I just pretty much can't be bothered arguing this topic again and again now with males. |

If I was a woman I think I would be proud of it, even if I felt like I was entitled to less rights than men.
If men do have more rights then women it's because it's the men who control things so it's only natural that those in control have more power. But I'd rather fight those in power than suck it up and just wish I was one of those in power. That never solves anything. Even as f*cking stupid as most people are we ARE more progressive than we used to be and civil rights are totally getting better. Hopefully someday women won't feel as uncomfortable about being women. Because talking from a guy's standpoint, a woman who is satisfied with herself and her appearance is a lot more appealing than a woman who isn't. I also do think that like it or not, gender is always gonna be a defining trait of who you are. As negative and self depreciating as I often come off as I'm actually quite satisfied being the person that I am and being male is a part of that. Whenever I get to know someone I could never imagine them being the opposite sex nor would I want to. Even as a not so spiritual guy I think being comfortable with who you are is important. I don't give a f*ck if other people dont like me for who I am and I wish everyone felt that way. Last edited by boo boo; 07-05-2010 at 12:41 AM. |

No no no not what I meant, but I'm not talking about appealing on just a sexual level, a personality level also.

What I was really saying in my first post was that it seems to me that girls feel more emotional pain, or at least, the girls I know tend to go into more and worse bad moods than the guys I know, and it's partly that that puts me off wanting to change my gender.

We've agreed that yes, shaving legs is a social norm and something that we would probably never do of our own free will if it weren't. But at the same time, from what I see here, I look at things a slightly different way. I have tattoos, Boo Boo has a beard and long hair, you don't shave your legs - these are all against social norms yet we still do it to 'better' (or at least alter) our appearance and distinguish us from others. It just so happens that your particular gripe is less common than the others.
