If I were to wake up with a male body tomorrow I would...

And if such a thing was possible, if rare, I would probably have a wank. Just to see what it's like from the other side.
Then, I'd try to guess my clothes and shoe size and order some stuff off the Internet so I could leave the house.
At work, since I speak to people on the phone a lot. I'd marvel at how much more my clients are willing to listen and take what I say on board so much more.
When I go to the gym, I use the male changing rooms since that's what my body says and I know how my male body will disturb the women there.
I still put the welfare of others first because I was socialised female...

I'd get women pregnant all over the world and spread my seed far and wide.
Basically make 200 illegitimate children in every colour, like an old sailor. Grin
Good thing I was made a woman Grin

Do a small thing and get loads of praise.

Curb crawl, just to see if it is that easy. 😲

Snog · 01/04/2019 10:04

I'd be delighted and probably have another baby at age 51

ErrolTheDragon · 01/04/2019 10:08

I'd get on with doing some exercise... I hate putting on my sports bra but it's not optional!

I would love to know what it feels like to be as strong as a man. I am a strong woman, but this morning I was trying to steal my 18 year old ds’s croissant, and he just grabbed my wrist and stopped me dead. I would like to know what that power feels like.

origamiunicorn · 01/04/2019 10:16

I'd love to be a huge strapping muscly bloke and know what it feels like to walk down a street at night on your own and feel like no one will mess with you.

TheGoalIsToStayOutOfTheHole · 01/04/2019 11:35

I have thought of this a lot. Its not 'the same' as obviously people in the 'wrong body' have never HAD the other body so don't know what its like to actusally be the sex they wish they were. However, even if I knew I was female, and I woke up male, I genuinely don't think I would mind too much? I would be a bit freaked out to start with but I would get used to it and probably would enjoy it. Apparently, thinking this is how I would react, means I am trans. But many things in my life apparently make me trans, not least my preference for 'masculine' stereotypes instead of being a girly girl. Mind, if I declare myself trans or non-binary or whatever, this means I am trandsphobic and taking the piss apparently. So its a bit of a minefield.

QueenKubauOfKish · 01/04/2019 11:48

Eww, am I the only person who doesn't want to try it at all, even for a day!? I'd be so grossed out to have a knob and dangly balls, I certainly don't think I'd fancy a wank.

I'm tall and strong already and put up my own hanging baskets/shelves etc. so maybe that's also why I can't see the appeal.

Nightwitch · 01/04/2019 12:19

Nope, wouldn't be grossed out by my cock and balls at all.

Yes to having more strength and being able to go out alone without fear. Also, would go to a gig, get in a mosh pit without getting knocked over or having my bum groped. And being able to do that arms over shoulders with the people either side of you thing without worrying I'm going to have to fend at least one of them off later.

Interesting the people who'd want to have sex with a woman. I'd definitely like to try that as a man. It's odd though icos I'm straight and wouldn't usually be interested in sex with a woman.

No, you aren't. I have no desire whatsoever to be a penis-haver. Even for a day.

Thesepreciousthings · 01/04/2019 12:38

I’d sit in a horrible bar/pub/club and challenge any misogyny directed at young women just wanting to drink in peace.

I’d see if it really is impossible to piss actually into the the toilet.

I’d have sex in the easiest and least taxing way possible, spooning maybe and see if it really does compare to the holy grail blow job.

Play with my balls for hours at a time to see if it is more satisfying that scratching an arsehole.

JurgenKloppsCat · 01/04/2019 12:40

This is the best thread I have read on FWR in years Grin

ErrolTheDragon · 01/04/2019 12:49

I'm assuming that we'd be getting a body of the same age and equivalent physicality (ie a woman of average height/strength/fitness would become a similarly average man?

With that said, I'd definitely want to see if I could do push-ups.

QueenKubauOfKish · 01/04/2019 13:33

I'm not actually sure women are at greater risk of assault when out and about.

Women are much more likely to be attacked or killed in relationships and by people they know, and more at risk of sexual assault and harrassment, but despite that I have read that men are much more likely to be violence/murder victims overall.

One source is here

So while out strutting out stuff as strong unassailable men we could well be more at risk.

QueenKubauOfKish · 01/04/2019 13:34

BTW I don't at all mean to raise that in a poor menz / MRA kind of way! It's interesting though. It's because of all the gang-type behaviour, fighting etc. I think

Thisnamechanger · 01/04/2019 13:36

I clicked on this thread thinking it would be really high minded...I'm so glad it's all about wanking Grin

BadPennyNoBiscuit · 01/04/2019 13:43

You get your ruler out or go home.

Fuppy owns this thread so far imo.

traceyracer · 01/04/2019 13:56

have a wank
play with my balls
pee standing up and see how far back from the toilet I can stand without making a mess

JurgenKloppsCat · 01/04/2019 14:31

One thing you would need to get the hang of is getting ready and heading out of the front door in less than 4 hours. Could you cope? Shit, shower, shave and dressed in 20 minutes and down to the pub before kickoff. Oh, and going to the bar when it’s your turn. You think we have it easy, but it’s bloody demanding being a bloke.

MephistophelesApprentice · 01/04/2019 14:45

All those things you folks are wanting to try? Imagine if you urgently craved doing that all the time and everything that obstructing you from doing it made you increasingly irritated and/or desperately sad.

That's life on testosterone.

In my female form I can get out of the door faster than DH so I'm pretty confident I could manage that.ConfusedHmm

I'm sure, it's tough on chaps being hormonal all the time.ThanksGrin

FromDespairToHere · 01/04/2019 14:56

Also have a wank and have a wee up a fence post...

I get out of the house quicker than all the men in DH's and my family. Doesn't stop them making jokes about women getting ready (not DH, he's not an arsehole).

And I go to the bar. Doesn't every woman who drinks?

Smotheroffive · 01/04/2019 15:15

...no..you're not alone, I already said I would miss my breasts, etc, and wouldn't want stinky ball sac and a knob. I like receiving knob too much to give it up for the sake of trying it out. Id just yearn to be in my own form again.

I also get out the house quicker, and with all the DC in tow, he still has to go get a forgotten something.

I find it a bit insulting that it takes women four hours to get out the door!
