Back in the day when I had a child several of my male friends mostly lost their children when they divorced. I was glad to be a woman and not fear losing my child. I am also glad because I get to hang out with some wonderful females of the species, which is a lot, lot easier when you are one yourself.

I made 2 people.

Everything else is just 'stuff I like about being a human'.

This is how I feel. Although frankly, I didn't really enjoy any of the actual baby growth/ejection, and BFing was just because the kids needed to be fed - it wasn't a magical experience (OK, the occasional cute, milk-drunk face), it's just amazing that I grew 2 whole, new humans.

Actually I'll change the second. I'm small, and non-threatening, which is good in some circumstances, but in others is a hindrance - I have to turn on 'extreme competency' at work to take control of a team/chair a meeting or they just think I'm a little fluffy person and ignore me in a way that just doesn't happen to large, hairy DP (who once had a complaint against him at work, because 'his eyebrows were aggressive' - not him or his actions, not his words, just the eyebrows - the HR person taking the complaint double checked this fact!)

I am not a troll. Though, a TRA or MRA may assume I am.

I have no idea, I have nothing else to compare it to. I enjoy some aspects of being me, and dislike some others. I do not overly enjoy the biological aspects of being female but have no desire to change them either, and no interest in being male. I love my children but hated being pregnant, did not enjoy feeding them when they were little. The parts of parenthood I enjoy, I don’t believe would be any different if I were their dad. I did not give birth to all of my children, but love them all equally, so to me, female biology has not particularly made a difference there.

I feel like most men are clumsy-looking(average male let's say), I've always liked my flexibility that I didn't have to put too much effort in. Maybe doesn't have to do too much with being female but I also like being smaller in size, I feel like some things come easier by being shorter/smaller.
And yeah the idea of something dangling between my legs isn't very appealing at all so I'm quite happy to go through periods and cramps as long as I have my practical vag lol 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Well this is where I differ from some posters here. I wish I were that brilliant as to be able to make people.
