I have a question form women around here: what are the nice/bad things about being a woman in your opinion?:smile:

As for me:
bad things:

1. having to put up with lots of pains(take PMT/PMS as an example...)
[rant]why is that all pains are just for women and not men?[/rant]
2. having to put up with men:devil:

nice things:

1. at least you enjoy looking at yourself in the mirror!
2. some advantages in social interaction that I'm not going to mention.

I guess 2 of each is enough for now:wink:

Note that I don't want to be a man either!

PS Since we might want to talk about girlish and embarrassing things, men aren't really welcome to be here. Thanks!:blushing:

Well, aside from killer cramps, there's BLOATING.

Men don't bloat.

There is no good side to bloating.

It's like being a blowfish, without perks.
 
Let's see...
Good thing about being a woman: spending time with men.
Bad thing about being a woman: spending time with men.
:biggrin: :smile: :-p

Oh, Evo, men do bloat...after they've been dead about a day. :devil:
 
ah finally, a thread about penis envy...

good things:
-less body hair.
-bigger, funner chest.
-ability to do splits without possibility of decreased reproduction abilities.
-women's intuition.
-no fear's of lifelong virginity.

not so good things:
-no fun extra appendages to poke people with.
-can't walk around topless when its hot.
-having babies hurts.
-making babies doesn't ensure pleasure.
-small hands

You can't? And all this time I thought most women were just too self conscious.

Gale said:
-bigger, funner chest.
And what does this one matter considering the drawback already quoted?

Gale said:
-making babies doesn't ensure pleasure.
The pleasure actually helps to insure the making of babies though and maybe that's why most men don't worry so much about that part for the ladies.

Don't worry, we already know it only takes near-beer to get you to bloat, so we won't have to resort to anything so drastic as killing you...that is, unless Chroot gets to your first for the sheep comment. :biggrin:

I heard that getting it stuck in the zipper is (way) worse than giving birth.

Women bloat because they never poo or pass gas. Or at least never seen to poo.

Sorry to lower the tone, but that's how I contribute. :rolleyes:

You're right! Why are they so afraid? *fart*

Its worse than that man! The bottom part must be maimed. And I bet pulling the zipper back down is worse than up. :cry:
