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 suppose under those circumstances there's little choice, stay you're current gender and be at the will of the virus, or change gender and be safe but would kind of be weird after so long as a man, and wouldn't really be something I'd be wanting.

I'd only want to be a man for a short period of time just to see what it's like. I wouldn't want to make the switch permanent. I do actually like being a woman despite many of its frustrations.

Most of it is social. I mean, having a period each month is definitely an irritant, but most of what frustrates me is tied to basic gender stereotypes/norms: what is expected of me, how people treat me, etc.

Social enforced gender roles and stereotypes are a huge pain and so restrictive, they limit a person from enjoying the things they like, forcing them to only do what narrow minds demand of them and create a society that has no imagination and little individuality to it.

Not really. You can do whatever you want, only a weak person lets constructs like that get to them on a personal level. If I was gay I wouldn't inform the world, but if someone asked I wouldn't lie simply because it's taboo in a certain culture.

i'm gonna have to agree to an extent. when i was with my first boyfriend, he was taken aback when we were out in public how much i'd not try to hide it (wasn't like in everyone's face about it either). He always tended to want to keep it hidden, even though he was very effeminate. My response is pretty simple, in the US you are legally protected and you have a degree of social allowance to be so in public, if you are not gonna be with who or what you want to be, then who else is going to do it? you always lose something when you go against the grain, but you also respect yourself and find new found respect among your real or new friends.

bemoaning and dwelling on the fact that the world is constructed in a way you don't like, whether real or abstract, isn't gonna change anything or do anyone any good except make themselves miserable and bitter.

So basically, virus everyone gets that infects their genitalia and may lead to health concerns. Only cure is to make a lot of medical changes and transition completely, opening up the possibility for tremendous body-related and social-related dysphoria that often cripples trans people into trying to commit suicide... Uh...unless dysphoria would not occur, I would not see this change being at all recommended. If it didn't, then whatever. I think it would be problematic to do such a think, or fathom it, because gender identity and past experiences shape who we are as people, and to shift that suddenly would possibly be very traumatic and confusing and could place one's self-identity at great risk.

It's weird though. You hear alot about the woes of the unconfident men screwed over by society, but you never hear women complaining about how they can't get guys because of their lack of physical attractiveness. Or maybe they just don't complain on video game forums.
