What is it like to be a woman?

Question:

I really would like to hear the truth! please!!

Answers:
Women have it good and women have it bad. In a nutshell:
1 - We are judged on looks -- men can get fat and ugly but not women -- you'd think this was 1906 not 2006.
2 - A lot of us get really bad cramps every 3-4 weeks. Some are plagued every 2 (ovulation & menses). It feels like food poisoning but ibuprofen, tylenol, aleve usually helps.
3 - Our hormones go haywire. We have over 211 to men's 12ish.
4 - We often have to manage households AND work AND all the relationships in an extended family.
5 - We make friends easily -- usually
6 - Then there's the whole childbirth thing which is a conversation all it's own.
7 - We bond easily
8 - Dogs and cats usually love us and consider us the "mama" and come to us for comfort just like the kids
9 - We are strong and tough but most men don't realize it until they've tangled with us.. it can be a secret weapon
10 - Some of us are in slavery here in the US and abroad.
11 - we are mysterious and complex and varied. A lot of men can be described as "boobs, beer, football" but women are much more complex.
12 - our bones break easier than men's and our skulls are not as thick (on many levels!)
13 - it's okay if we cry.

Wonderful!

Is that enough?

You have to cook and clean and look good. And you constantly think about your weight.

wonderful

I have no idea.

mai wife

Here's thr truth...

I don't know, but I have a feeling it would be rough, with all the periods and cramps and bloating, etc. Then the fact that most men wouldn't take you seriously, but if you were good looking, they might treat you like a prime piece of meat.
Then on top of that, you may wear uncomfortable clothing, if you're so inclined, like heels and thongs, etc.
It doesn't sound like a picnic!

Period cramps!

Its awful i want to come back as a man

Not good - from what I have seen men are judged on what they do. Women are judged by how they look. You can be smart, wonderful, exciting, funny, but if you are overweight or unattractive you are invisible.

great! just like being a man.
only that instead of buddies that u can trust and call for help u have many friends that r ready to show u the back on the most important moment, just to go and talk about u behind ur back. and when u finally get to have kids, it's coming with this pain that makes u feel in the hands of God.

ummm.are you thinking of becoming one? All kiddin' aside.it's fun, sometimes. Lots of pain during certain times, like periods and pregnancy and childbirth and breast-feeding and raising kids and.need I go on? Of course if you only plan to be a career woman.you can skip all that. (Except for the periods). Anyway, it's fun having so much power over men. I'd say that's the best part about being female.

Although I'm not I imagine it's confusing, illogical and very changable.

That said I guess creating a new life is something more special than men can ever know.

What a question! I don't have enough time to discuss my perspective. But, what I can say is that every woman's experience as a woman is different. Just think if I asked you what is it like to be a man? It's a difficult question to answer!

hmm..everyday..u have to do loudry, washing plates and do all da house work.u have to bear the pain of menstruation and all the trouble in changing all those stupid pads. women also have to bear the pain in carrying a child in the womb in like 9 month.argh its sooo bloddy trouble some..BUT! we will get flowers and jewellery from men..and we dont have to do lots of really hard work.sooo to me being a woman is not bad..i will also get special treatment from gentlemen.

it's all GOOD if she were with me!

"experience"

Pros.
Sometimes men open doors 4 U, not expected 2 lift heavy stuff, can blame lack of interest on "I'm only a woman", kids tend 2 talk 2 U without thinking U R a Perv, more in tune with our inner child/self, motor cars serve a purpose other than an extension of a P & we don't feel the need 2 take them apart, we also live longer.

Cons.
Periods, giving birth, not having the ability 2 lift heavy stuff, juggling being a sex-godess with everything else required of us along the way.

Wonderful. We in India, treat Gods as Women. I am man, but would have liked it better if I am Women. For example, the power of giving birth, that is great, you can carry a life in your womb. In fact while paternity is a matter of rough conjecture and guess, maternity is absolutely certain. Christ was born because of Mary, though there was no involvement of Man. Holy Quran ( the book of Muslim) has many more reference to Mary, than to Christ. The finest and toughest Head of Government ever were Women, Margret Thatcher (UK) Gold Meir (Isreal) Indira Gandhi (India) Sirimavo Bandara Naike (Sri Lanka). The percentage of failed political leaders amonst women are much less comapred to failed male. The perfect body belong to Women, and only a women can dress up in many many ways and still looks wonderful. She would look wonderful even naked but a naked man look ugly. Believe me, women should feel proud of being woman.

Not sure, it would be fun to change places for a day.

Just like being a man, but nicer.
And some times harder.
More multitasking.
