Pro of being a guy: We don't have analysis paralysis.

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.
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.

Tell that to the women who live in Saudi Arabia. Pakistan. Afghanistan. Most of Africa and the middle east, in fact and chunks of Asia. Eastern Europe, South America, The US... Did you know that there are counties that will stone a girl to death for being or for trying to get an edcuation?
Saudi Arabia - all women must have a male guardian, they are not allowed to vote or drive. familiar with the term Shia Law? that's what they have in Afghanistan - it basically legalizes spousal . In Uganda and Nigeria women are sold by their families into marriage. In China, where there is a one child per family quota, there is forced abortion and sterilization and girls born into families wanting sons are often put to death. as women in the US, we are often paid less to do the same work, and we are victims of sexual abuse and domestic violence at a larger percentage then men.
Dutch news site Expatica reported that in 2008, there were 809 registered trafficking victims in the Netherlands; out of those 763 were women and at least 60 percent of them were reportedly forced to work in the sex industry. Of reported victims, those from Hungary were all female and all forced into prostitution.
In Greece, according to NGO estimates in 2008, there may be a total 13,000–14,000 trafficking victims of all types in the country at any given time. Major countries of origin for trafficking victims brought into Greece include Nigeria, Ukraine, Russia, Bulgaria, Albania, Moldova, Romania, and Belarus.
In Pakistan, young girls have been sold by their families to big-city brothel owners. Often this happens due to poverty or debt, whereby the family has no other way to raise the money than to sell the young girl. Cases have also been reported where wives and sisters have been sold to brothels to raise money for gambling, drinking or drug addictions. Sex slaves are reportedly also bought by 'agents' in Afghanistan who trick young girls into coming to Pakistan for well-paying jobs. Once in Pakistan they are taken to brothels and forced into sexual slavery, some for many years.
In 2001 the United States State Department estimated that 50,000 to 100,000 women and girls are trafficked each year into the United States and sold as either enforced labor or sexual exploitation.
so yeah, it really does suck to be a man, women have it SO good. what i listed above, btw, is just the tip of the iceberg. so go and ahead and be bitter all you want, but really, you don't have it so bad, do you.

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).

And yes I know the Moron with the Bane AV started it but that moron is also one of my oldest friends ( I'll try to talk some sense into him )

cons of being a woman:
1. professionally, what you do is at the very least attached to the fact that you're female. e.g.: you're not a doctor, you're a "doctor who is a woman." (male doctors are never doctors who are a man) --- and that's best case - it goes downhill from there.
2. guys that will fuck anything that moves get all bent out of shape if they find out you've had more than one or two partners in your life
3. every tv show, movie, album cover, bar scene, magazine, billboard, conversation you overhear from the men at the next table, etc., is constantly telling you that no matter what your skills and accomplishments, the thing that really matters is how well you keep up that nice little waistline
pros:
1. it's awesome. (i prove this by using this mathematical proof:
A. we know that i am quite awesome, and
B. we know that my girl friends are also quite awesome, and
C. my girl friends and myself are all women by definition, therefore:
D. it is proven that being a woman is awesome
2. i understand men are often rejected when asking women out, regardless of their looks or status. i have never, ever been said no to, on the simple basis that i have that y chromosome.
3. we're not beaten by the world into hiding our emotions to an unhealthy degree from a very young age.
there. you're welcome.

Quote by BuzWrong, there are plenty of women out there that know how to work it and blow/fuck thier way right to the top.Not that women can't get there on strong work ethic or anything.
Con of being a female: It is usually harder to get to the top in the business world
(but that is changing, especially since females now outnumber males in college at about 60% to 40%.)
Pro of being male: A better chance of business success. (But this is dwindling guys...)
Con of being male: Shorter life expectancy.
