YOU HAVE YOUR OWN BOOBS!!!
I agree with most of you here, and feel quite lucky to be a woman and have many of these attributes But why do women not have to worry about having a successful career?

Sorry for being so late in addressing this.

Don't mean to say women don't have to work but, well they don't have as much pressure to be successful at something so if their goal isn't to make a lot of money and get a lot of ass to be happy it's easier for them to live life at home. Raising kids and what not if that's what they want to do. I think today women are admired weither they are the stay at home variety or the career type. But stay at home dads are still considered pussy men by the alpha bros of male society.

Still you get a nice reward for your troubles.

When it comes to chores at home it's usually equal for both sexes. But I'm telling you, having a d*ck just means that way more often people are gonna ask you to do sh*t that you don't want to do. For some reason people assume that because I have a penis I can do anything, like hey bra can you help me out and carry this giant f*cking mattress and this big screen tv and chestedrawer all the way out to the back k thx. It doesn't matter that I'm weak as sh*t I always get dragged into things like I'm the brawny man and I'm not a f*cking brawny man but I'm expected to be one because I have a d*ck.

Women can make plans easier because they get less distractions like this and they get to relax more if they choose that option, not that they have to. But I'm telling you I'd rather do house chores than move sh*t around all the time and from my experience women never have to do that if they dont want but if you're a guy it's just too f*cking bad.

Granted a lot of guys don't have a problem with this like I do, I'm just one of the pussies but when you are a pussy the pressure to be macho is just that much more fustrating.

Okay, no joke, this sounds like it sucks majorly. Thinking of myself as a guy around the same size I am now being asked to lift things that weigh 1.5 times my weight would be the worst.
I can only speak from personal experience but I get ushered into doing stereotypically feminine stupid stuff. Like, I have to spend a lot of time with my horrible grandmother and hear her tell me that I should stop wearing so much eyeliner or people will think I'm a prostitute while my brother only has to deal with her maybe twice a month. On the down side, my weekend is usually half over by the time I'm done with her but on the up side, I can still feel my arms.

Well I'd like to know what kinda chores were included in that study. I'm not just talking about house chores like cleaning, cooking and so on. I'm talking about taking out the trash, yardwork, cleaning the gutters, shoveling snow, assembling furnature, moving furnature, repairing sh*t, electrical work, wood work, plumbing, pest control, washing the car, fixing the car, getting sh*t out of the attic, roof repair. In general guys tend to get the more physically demanding and dangerous chores.

Well, she's untreated borderline personality disorder and in general just terrible and difficult. I have a regular grandma who I love and I'm sure yours is nice but this is a really boring conversation.....
