If you could trade your current body for a different random body, would you?

Ok, lets say that through the magical forces of a liger you can roll the dice again on your body...which means it could be better or worse than your current one. It doesn't have to be bound by the genetics of your parents either, its random. All other factors are the same, its the same age as the one you have now.

So you could trade a healthy body you have now for a sick one, but on the other hand you could trade your ugly face and body for a good looking one.

If you're extremely ugly, or were born with fins or something...it may be worth the risk. But given that 60% of American bodies are fat its hard to say.

LOL
I guess you're right. I'll correct my OP then, not that I'm a prime specimen, but the odds are definitely NOT in MY favor. :

Even though my body is shot, I'd be likely to get fvcked on the deal.
The guy that ended up with my body would probably hunt me down and kill me.

I answered no on this one too. There's not even anything great about my body. I'm average height, naturally pretty weak, sunburn easily (do not tan, just burn) am going bald and have a crooked roman nose.

However, it has some qualities that I'd rather not give up. I have a fantastic immune system, solid eyesight, I'm very quick on my feet, I'm not short, my penis isn't small and I am of course pretty healthy. This ones good enough that a gamble probably isn't a great idea. I'd probably end up with a short runty body with a small dick, even more back hair and toenail fungus or something.

Just remember when you are rolling those dice, there's always somebody worse off :D

This is the part where somebody says "not always" and drags up the picture of the fat naked man at his computer.

I hadn't really decided on that one. I'm going to say its up to each individual whether they want that to be part of the die roll or not. :)

If you're finboy though, you might be happy to swap spots with the fat dude.

Yes. Considering that my current body has the flu, I would most likely trade it in for another one. Caveat: The new body must not be running a 101 degree fever.....

Same here. I wouldn't want to come out looking like Gilbert Gotfried or Roseanne Barr or something when I'm already happy with the way I look.

But if you came out looking like Jessica Biel, I'd hit it. Big time.
