Take care of my manly needs and spend the other 23 hours and 45 minutes thinking about sports. :shrug:

she's also become curiously fond of baseball and encourages me to watch it often, and for long stretces.

11. What a fabulous opportunity to learn... |
|
... how the opposite gender thinks and feels, as opposed to the stereotypes we each have of the other. I would think that being a woman for a day would give me the opportunity to be a better man from that point on.

being as I am a post-operative transsexual!
I am now the opposite of my birth gender, and I love it. Much better on this side of the fence.
In case you were wondering, I am now female.

20. I would go for a walk at night and not worry about being attacked. |

I've often wondered what it would feel like, not to have that little niggling fear constantly overshadowing me at night. Guys have no idea.

Guys who are crossdressers DO have an idea... Being transgender, I have many male friends who crossdress...and some who, like me, are tanssexuals.
Now, if you are a crossdresser, there's only two possibilies: you pass, or you don't.
If you do...then you are a target of all the scum that victimize women,, rapists, muggers, purse-snatchers, etc.
If you don't pass...then you are the target of gay-bashers.
I think that some guys DO have a clue. Espcially male crossdressers and the stereotypical "flaming" gay men.
But you're right. MOST men don't have a clue how frightening it can be to be a woman, alone, at night.

It takes practice to walk in heels, you know!
For amusement value, rent the movie "Switch" sometime.

Well, can I just make a point of order here?
The word "transvestite" is offensive to most crossdressers. It has, over time, developed negative connotations. The preferred term nowadays...the P.C. term...is "crossdresser."
As one who has many crossdresser friends, being myself a transsexual, I can vouch for this.

It would be nice to go out without makeup. If I were in a hurry instead of combing my hair I could just plop a baseball hat on my head. I would eat a very large meal as with my male body I would not have to worry about it all going on my hips. Oh, and it would be nice to have my S/O worry about dinner, feeding the pets, cleaning the house, etc.

Big hair. Lotsa makeup. Sluttiest dress in town. Then I'd hit the local meat market and just be a total tramp.

I guess I would take a piss standing up, that might be fun...
Hit on straight girls and get to hook up w/them... :shrug:
I think I'd be afraid to, you know, copulate, though...
I don't think I'd want to make anyone preggers by mistake!
And I wouldn't do that on the first date, anyway. O8)

hitting people in the face with my penis, just to see what it was like.
Seriously. And I've told my husband that before, too. It's the truth. I'd feel so damn POWERFUL, man!!!!!!!
And on edit, I'd want the WHOLE DEAL, not one without all its factory-issued parts. Ahem.
