I've tried to imagine being female.
Some things I can sense from living with females.
Its easy for me to empathize how people 'feel'.

As for me feeling it personally, even for 5-10 min, no thank you.
At my age, my breasts would be heavy and sagging. I would probably have a constant headache or backache from the extra weight.

I would be past menopause so hot flashes and mood swings would be unlikely.

I would probably be very tired from raising my family.

My feet would likely hurt.

Arthritis would probably start to be bothering me.

I'd likely be bloated resulting in granny 'walking farts'.

I might have a bit of incontinence when I sneeze or laugh too hard.

My butt would be bigger requiring extra special cleaning.

My hair would be greyer but I would be okay with that, wrinkles too.

I would do a lot of sitting and talking.

I would miss my family, my past and worry about the future more.

I would sit in the dark, alone...a lot.

I would know a lot of special personal recipes, cook like a pro but eat very little.

House cleaning would be an automatic action and I'd have a 'system' for doing it.

Let's see...

I might think most people are funny and insane.
Children might make me cry (missing when mine were young).
I would crave passionate sex.
I would focus on romantic gestures more.
I would complain more about my health (to certain people) but not my life.
I might play more cards or have other girl friends over for coffee or brunch.
I would be closer to my neighbors, know more about their affairs.
I would offer advice to younger women trying to raise their families.

Health-wise, no thank you.
Daily living wisdom-wise, a bit more detailed and tenacious than me as I am.
Mood-wise, pretty much as I am, maybe a bit more sensitive to how others treat me.

Other than that, I'd still be me.






Golly Tom! You left out that you would probably own a cat or two or three.....

Thinking about it... it'd be really weird to have a flat chest. I'd miss my boobs!
Not me..I am dying to see what my feet look like.


Ya, I know what you mean. I was thinking of participating in this Portland Naked Bike Ride a few weeks back but I was afraid that my boobs would get caught in my bike's spokes lol....jk
