I like being a girl so I would stay a girl. I can't imagine being a boy. It seems like they have it more rough than what we do. Girls get to wear pretty dresses and have girls days out and just have fun. Girls have lower car insurance. I am not into all the boy sports. I am happy with being a girl. I definently hate getting dirty. Getting dirty is not my thing. Most boys don't care about getting dirty or going camping and things like that. I hate bugs boys are not really scared of much and they seem like their more rude and carefree. I am not saying boys are all like that but for the most part girls are more polite. I like being polite and tring to be a lady rather than being a boy that does what ever.

I would like being a boy because we could do anything we want, be free, not giving birth, they don't even bother getting dirty, work for the family, and they are also not discriminated unlike girls. Girls are usually weak, dependent, soft, sensitive, and a lot more, and I do not like these characteristics. I love being strong, unsensitive, and the like. Oh, how I wish being a boy...haha...

I like being female. I can hardly say "girl" since I am now 73 years old. The biggest privilege that life can ever give is that of being a mother. The biggest responsibility one can ever have is that of being a mother. I like everything about being female, but most of all, I am a mother, and that is the most important of all.

"Choose a gender b4 you were born!" as 4 me ,just let it go,if i born to be a girl,i'd like to be a girl.if i born to be a boy ,then i'd like to be a boy.There is no big deal with girls or boys.enjoy yourself.

Hi there!I like being a girl, well this is where I fit in. I am domesticated, well organized and I like things to be clean and tidy at all times. When I'm home I can't sleep when things aren't on it's proper places. Cheers!

In China, most people want to choose a boy. Because more and more girls can not get married while they are 30 years old.

I think I would rather be born a boy. They seem to have it alot easier than girls do. I like to do alot of things that guys like to do also. I think life would be more fun as a boy. they seem to have less worries.

hello tuckersheri, i still like to be a boy for i don't want to experience giving birth to a child. for i saw my wife when she was giving birth to our kids and i felt so sorry to her. wanted to help her but i can't except to be by herside only. so hard being a girl for she will sacrifice her life from day one of pregnancy till the delivery.

I am a girl and i like being a girl, i am happy with who i am so i wouldn't want it any different but i don't agree with you when you say that boys have it more rough than girls do. I believe we girls have to put up and deal with a whole lot more than guys do. For example we take care of ourselves we are expected to take care of our house our men our kids and go out and bring in a paycheck to, In work we have to prove ourselves or else we are not taken serious we have lots of emotions but we are expected to be tough to, Guys live more carefree and they deal with less than we do.

This is a interesting discussion. I am happy with being a boy. So I definitely choose to be a boy. Being a boy means more power. A boy can do more risks than girls. I love the feeling being a boy.

I like being a boy if I could choose before birth.Boys are more lively than girls.Boys are also interested in all kinds of fields,so they can make many friends than girls and their lives will grow and flourish.

As much as I love being a girl, I would like to have the chance to urinate standing up, maybe even write my name in the snow. i also love camping, sports, and video games, so I would fit right in!

I would still prefer to be a boy! Reasons: 1. We guys don't hold hands 2. We don't need to lift the toilet seat 3. We are always in shape (Round is a Shape) Thought to Ponder: "For every man's greatness lies a woman, for every man's fall lies a woman."

Hi Tuckersheri, I actually think I make a better boy, and so if I could chose to be born again I would definitely chose to be male. I would love the chance to be able to build muscle mass easier than I can now (though I guess the joy would be a little less since it is easier!). I would like the freedom to be able to look stronger better, to urinate standing, to be able to eat 500 more calories without being fat, things like that. Not being the one giving birth would be fun too lol! All the best, Dranz

hi there tuckersheri :) i like being a girl, too, so i would also stay as a girl. i can't imagine being a boy because it seems hard being one. they have to do manual labor most of the time. and they have to be tough and strong all the time. i like being a girl because it's easier being one. i like to be pretty and clean all the time. i can never survive doing jobs for guys, such as plumbing, repairing cars, being an electrician, carpentry, and etc. but i have so much respect for all the hard working guys out there. :)
