Let's say medical advancements went through the roof within the next 5 year, and you've received a virus that the only known cure for was to swap your gender around permanently and 100% genetically accurately. Would you be fine with that? Or would you prefer to leave yourself to the will of the virus?

I'd probably be fine with it. What ever guarntee's my health is what would matter most to me.

I would seriously consider it only if there' s no other way to survive. Still it would be insanely weird to become a lady...

You can't 'swap your gender' gender is a social construct.

The word "lady" always seemed posh to me. Like snooty sort of. Would you be posh? :o

I feel like this question could've been asked without the complicated set-up. Anyway, technically, you can "swap" your gender; it's called transgender, and it's as easy as identifying as the other gender. But I'll assume you meant sex. In which case... I suppose I'd be cool with it. I mean if like I woke up in the morning and suddenly I was a babe, that'd be okay I guess. Not really something I aspire to, though.

Sure. It'd be interesting to know if their sexual pleasure is the same as a man's :P.

In any case, if that virus were widespread, and the gender modification were universally offered/cheap, we would see some interesting changes in social dynamics.

Well, I don't see the point of attempting to remove my genitals in order to cure something that infects the genitals. Unless it interferes with something else like urinating or sexual pleasure in which I would have to convert.

No I like being a guy.

(High) heels and the kind of clothes women often wear seem very uncomfortable. Plus women are more easily judged based on looks. I'd hate that.

Uh, you realize you'd be changing, not removing, your genitalia? If you chop your dick off, you don't have a hidden vagina :P.

@TC: You'd better just say that it infects your genitalia and spreads out to the rest of your body unless, due to hormonal balancing and whatnot, you change your gender (swapping genitalia).

Definitely. In fact, for many reasons, I think it makes sense for me to be female even though I'm comfortable with being male.

Getting ****ed, having to deal with periods, having to constantly put on makeup and having to deal with pregnancy doesn't sound great to me. Sure there are benefits, but I'd rather be male.

Some regard a few of my interests and salient personality traits as feminine, but all of that is part of gender expression and so is irrelevant. I'm talking about gender identity here; in particular, I feel that it makes just as much sense for me to be female as it does to be male. It's simply a matter of subconscious feelings regarding my identity.

I'm pretty sure that women aren't programmed to have only passive roles in sex. As for putting on makeup, I personally would find that fun. Pregnancy and menstruation don't sound too pleasant, but at least I'm able terminate my pregnancies. And honestly, I'd just get used to periods eventually. Overall, it doesn't sound to bad - at least to me.

I could have sworn that I made a reply to this. Okay, to paraphrase, removing a dick and putting a vagina there still means removing the dick, and for the act of defeating an illness that threatened the dick. It doesn't really make any sense to change genders just for that unless the dick infection threatens some other part of my body.

In day to day life, I'd be okay with it. It would probably be easier in some cases. Sexually, I think it would be very confusing.

My gender is already female, my physical sex though is something I'm working towards changing towards female as much as medically and physically possible. But if I was able to become 100% female completely then I would be over joyed since I would finally be the woman I was meant to be in full. As for those who don't know how a physical sex switch would work, males are born with vagina's, but those are sealed in the womb and the male parts grow over it. A sex change surgery basically removes those parts, opens the vagina and uses the skin from the removed male parts to make the vagina more viable. Although it does make the person sterile and unable to reproduce, sadly. Well maybe sadly, the Earth is a tad over crowded with humans as it is.

I like being male?

and i don't identify myself as female, so unless i got a memory/experience wipe and switched genders or was re-born physically female, i probably wouldn't like or want to be female.

Wow, 50% of the votes in total say they would actually prefer to be the opposite sex? I didn't expect that. :shock:

No cause under your scenario I would be a woman that still looked like a dude. That would suck cause I look great as a guy, but as a woman I don think so. Now if my appearance changed to then sure, why not.

My psychology is very male, so it would probably be an issue. If I suddenly switched sexes, I'd definitely be a lesbian, and maybe transgender,

No....fvck no. I'd be stuck looking like a hermaphrodite then unless that so called cure also alters my face structure, gives me decent size breast, stops hair from growing on my face and chest, and raises my voice pinch considerably. Not to mention needing to get used to a females habits? Yeah, I think I'd rather die a man thanks you...
