Come for the absurdity, stay because you've clearly got nothing better to do with your life.

Honestly, no offence, but I don't wanna be a woman. That sounds like a difficult life.

Definitely the latter. I'll just be gay and beautiful.

I mean i don’t think of my self as ‘man’ i just think of my self as me. The only difference would be how others treat me/ expectations of me. So sure, i would take the change.

Would you really rather be a horrifying hag-man, OP? Womanhood sounds tough but not that tough, and there's some "silver linings" too, at least in a place like the West.

I am basically a horrifying hag man already and live in a Muslim country.

Ah. I see the logic a bit then. I'm not really sure what to say, lol. Sorry about that.

New rules: you can live in whatever country you want to.

Also you should consider that to some, there is a clear preference in gender, but for others this type of decision just doesnt carry much weight.

For me, the question actuallybecomesz: would I rather be ugly or attractive.

While there are problems with being too attractive, it seems a clear choice. We all tend to try to be our best selves, rather than our worst, and for most their best self is relatively clean and orderly, or at least intentional. Noone wants to be universally unnatractive

Latter, might as well try something new. Plus I'd be able to offer a unique perspective afterwards.

To quote a certain someone:

"I see no point in living if I can't be beautiful."

I don't understand, either nothing change for me or I become a hot girl?

Wellll, I ain't exactly pretty as it is. Attractive, yes, but not pretty the way some men can be. Too big and hairy for a lot of folks. So I've had a glimpse of what being ugly is like. Not the full dose, like I said I am attractive. It just isn't in a conventional way.

So I think it might be fun to be pretty, even if I was a woman. I wouldn't want it to be permanent, and gods know I'd miss a lot of what being a man entails (physically, and mentally), but if I had to choose between those two options, experiencing something totally new sounds like a better choice.

The only thing that would change that is whether or not it would come with the changes necessary to experience it without dysphoria. I've known too many trans people to agree to being trapped in the wrong body. But if that was magicked away, I think it would be fun.

Now, this also assumes I don't have to change my sexual orientation. That's something I wouldn't volunteer for. Not into dick, or the men attached to them (unfortunately for me, since there's a lot of cute gay dudes that are into bears), so the idea of suddenly being attracted to men is offputting. I suppose if the change was thorough enough for that, I wouldn't care after it happened, but this is a choice, not something that just happened.

This also assumes it's a me that isn't married. My wife is hetero, so that would make the change a hell no. I'm pretty sure she'd be fine with my face being ugly, but not the total change.

No gender dysphoria, yes you can be a lesbian. Congratulations, I now pronounce you a woman.

My apologies to your wife.

Most good looking person in the world will live completely different life, no matter your gender. Literally everyone and every thing will throw themselves at you.
