Pros and cons of being a guy or a girl

1 Jan 2013

Pro of being a female: Multiple orgasms as many as you want!

Con of being a female: We usually have to fix everyone else's messes and take care of everyone.

Pro of being a male: We rule the world.

Con of being a male: Our dicks often rule our brains!

That pretty much boils it all down!

Cons of being a guy

Feminism, society turned against men by feminists, attacks against masculinity by feminists, legal and social persecution and oppression by feminists.

supposedly we have slightly less contrastive vision than girls, it seems we have to do everything that a girl doesn't want to do b/c they'll whine about getting their shirts dirty or their nail polish from chipping imo, no offense. most importantly if you get kicked in the groin, it hurts A LOT.

-Even when abdominal fat is more active and can be gone sooner, it is risky for the cardiovascular system.
-For most men: having a high sex drive.
-Misandry is accepted and encouraged in today's society.
-On average; more body hair
-Higher risk of suffering genetic allopecia.
-There's no benefit in marriage for men at all

There are pratically no pros to being a man. If you are a man then you get to be unemployed at twice the rate as women, you get to make 15% of domestic spending decisions, you can lose your kids and go to jail if you can't pay your exhorbitant child support judgment, you can be accused of at the drop of a hat (and your false accuser never, ever goes to jail for the lie), and you get to be a part of a culture that generally treats men as moronic clowns. And you are far less likely to earn a college degree than a woman.

So for men, the advantage is physical strength. Women get all of the other advantages.

+And men don't get periods, sure. But we live shorter lives (and yet get less health research funding) and thus collect fewer retirement benefits, even though we pay the same taxes.

- being seen as disposable & expendable in society, your feelings & emotions do not matter.

Pros of being a girl

Low libido and zero interest in the opposite sex
can wear whatever they want
can cry without being called names
No accountability, everything is the man's fault
More funding for women's health then men
Label ''The Fairer Sex''
Less Body hair
can get away with almost anything, including homicide, Statutory ,child molestation,abuse,false accusations,domestic violences ( no not saying any of it is a good thing,just that when men do they should be punish to the full extent of the law, so should women)
If arrested get a lighter jail/prison sentences then a man would
both sexes generally tend to treat women in a more positive way
Live longer, don't have to do as much physical labor, have lots of options, automatically have the upper hand in divorce and custody cases (not saying that's a good thing, but it's the truth).

Was going to attack feminist groups, after I saw Bunny12's response of us ruling the world. Men certainly do not rule world. They do not get higher pay for the same work. If you look at unbiased studies and actually analyse the results instead of taking them at face value, it shows that women actually choose lower paying jobs because they are less willing to work in dangerous jobs, isolated/uncomfortable locations, longer hours, unorthodox times, they prefer family time, etc. Also, men are 95% of workplace deaths, but with all the factors accounted for in jobs (i.e. hours worked, same job, same education level, etc.), they only earn 4-6¢ more than the women every dollar. Not the 77 to a dollar that a lot of groups would have you believe. That difference could probably be explained away by men's better bargaining skills, in general, men may be better at convincing their opponent for a better deal for themselves. Unmarried women without children actually earn more than unmarried men without children. Yeah! Female-owned businesses (I think in the USA) get money simply for being female, all other factors accounted for, but still, female CEOs earn half as much as male CEOs. Take that to mean what you want, that women are fairer to their employees, or their customers, or that men are simply better at running a business.

Second thing is, domestic violence has actually been proven to be about 50/50 between the sexes. Feminist groups (not your average innocent feminist that just wants equality, but mainstream feminist groups) twist figures of domestic violence, , etc., by changing definitions. They love to redefine things to make men seem like we're all out to get women.

As women, you were forced to listen to your husband, look after your children and household and were not accountable for any of your actions by the law. As a man, you were expected to hold your wife accountable (since they couldn't be held by law, that was the actual rules), if you couldn't you were ridiculed, shamed, your wife was free to run about doing a lot of… things and the law couldn't stop her. However, even then, wife beaters were looked at with disgust, I don't know why people automatically assume that since we're so 'liberal' and 'progressive' that people were tyrants back in the day, that most ordinary people just trying to get on with life were tyrants.

So, anyway, women not held accountable by law, submissive to husband (just like the husband is submissive to the law and wasn't allowed to beat her, but minor physical punishment was allowed as a last resort, since the husband is legally accountable for his wife's activity), constrained to the household. Now, the man, he was constrained to his work and it was his duty to bring home money, he would be looked at with disdain if he couldn't bring in money for his family because he was being a stay-at-home dad, just like women would be looked at with disdain if they couldn't look after their kids, in favour of working outside the home, but feminists wanted to assume that there was something better outside the household (hint, there wasn't, everyone has their own problems, women may have been constrained, but so were men, just in a different place). Men could be drafted to war at any time, but women couldn't, not because of sexism towards women, but because society valued women too much, think about it, they are more inherently more valuable to the species - a man could have many kids by many women, but a woman could only have one mans' kid(s) at a time, twins or more if the human race is *lucky* - so anyway, men served to protect the women and children, that's where the rule, "women and children first" comes from. Women may have been objectified as sex objects, but men were disposable killing machines. All for the protection of women and children. If there's a fire, women and children expected to come out first. Men pay the bills.

Men do NOT rule the world. We already had the rawer end of the deal before feminism arrived, but after feminism morphed to have some sort of persecution complex of women, it has been popular for women to hate men in this society. Men and women have a bigger gap now to overcome than ever before. Feminism has destroyed men's rights. Being a man today is arguably better than being a man in days past, but so's being a woman, and feminism has really made that gap between men and women even bigger, despite that women had the better deal in the first place. Men are taught today that there's something wrong about masculinity, especially with all the female role models early in children's lives (teachers, single mothers (since custody battles are always geared towards women and the legal incentives to marry AND divorce for women, but none for either for men), etc.).

Con of being a dude: Arousal being so obvious.
Pro of being a dude: Arousal being so obvious.

Con: some women think all men are misogynistic fools who misrepresent statistics and ignore the brutal treatment of women that occurs throughout the world
Pro: with one intelligent conversation a man can convince her otherwise, at least about himself

have to sit down to pee

have to sit down to pee

Manly Con, from female perspective and quite true of about 90%: Can't/won't aim straight whilst standing to pee. (I'm in the 10% who do aim straight.)

Pros for women:

1. Vaginas are just awesome. If I had one, I'm convinced I'd never get out of the house.

2. Women are beautiful. The best you can say about men is that some of them are handsome. "Beautiful" >> "Handsome."

Cons for women:

1. Periods.

2. Bras.

3. Dramatically smaller caloric budget.

Seconded on the calorie con for women. I don't know how I'd cope without my extra 500!

For me the main con of being a man is not being able to choose when you have sex. Its always here choice.

if you could, i'd appreciate if you'd elaborate on the above bolded sentence so that we can have a conversation about it. thank you. smile

You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.

Yes, I too would like to know just where are you getting your information.

Sorry for the late reply, I kinda went inactive there for a long time and I know it's 2 years later, but better late than never: http://www.reddit.com/r/MensRights/comments/15gnyz/7_tactics_used_by_academic_feminists_to_suppress/

Well I like being a girl. We get to wear nail polish (and don't fucking chip it dude or you're dead), you get to wear lingerie, you get to have a collection of high heels, you get to buy silly frocks, you can be excused by society for acting ditsy, silly and confused, you get to have unlimited orgasms and for some curious reason we're usually way smarter than guys and they don't even realize it. For that reason we wrap them around our tiny finger and get away with murder hehe. Just saying? Oh yeah and like Busty said, we can show our emotions and stuff and we have nice sensitive TITS that make us feel GREAT!!

Also, most importantly, we have something guys just don't have: WE HAVE OUR GIRLFRIENDS!!!!!!!!!!!!

p.s. The rest of my post other than girlfriends is mostly just silly stuff.

well i came here with a rather flippant answer.. then i read the post by Guest.. i feel like giving him a big hug except he would think i had a hidden agenda .. so he probably misses out on heaps of giant hugs.. but i do believe some of what he alludes to is correct..
then i read the posts by Sprite and Flakycactus and Bustyredhead.. how true... soooo sadly true..

so i have attached myself to VirginalViet on this ..

yesssssssssss.. WE HAVE OUR GIRLFRIENDS!!!!!!!!

best thing about being a female.. we get to SLEEP with them Embarassed

giggles... and it is still more socially acceptable for a woman to sleep with a woman than a man with a man.. my opinion of course..

as for periods and everything else.. they r a small price to pay for getting to sleep with our gfs.. biggrin

[i would normally Embarassed

and giggle here but sense that this topic is deadly serious to some]

as for the pros and cons of being a man... i have not the slightest knowledge on this subject .. so will not hazard even the smallest guess.

Are you sure?
