Personally I think women have it easier at the moment, well only if you are average+ looking.

Yup. I'm a guy but would MUCH rather be a woman. Don't think they have it easier...in fact I think they have it harder. Still would rather be one.

Stupid question. Born-Agains are never going to consider becoming transgendered.

If you think women have ever had it easier, you're kidding yourself....
lolwut?

Try getting a job as an elementary school teacher if you're a man. It's impossible. In some places, it's literally impossible; officials go on record stating they will not hire men for these jobs. As a man you also have exactly 0% chance of gaining custody of your kids even if the mother is addicted to meth and tries to stab a police officer. As a man, you can be forced to pay child support for a baby you don't want. If you were a woman, you could coat hanger that sucker and that's the end of it. As a woman, you can use your flirting powers to get ahead in the engineering world. As a man, I'm totally fucked because there are no women in my field and I hate talking to men because they piss me off and I'm not attracted to them. Women also benefit from lower car insurance rates, lower health insurance, lower life insurance, longer life expectancy, and higher overall happiness. When couples get divorced, divorced women tend to do a lot better than divorced men. Divorced men suffer from higher rates of depression than divorced women.

I'd change gender and be a woman for the next go around if and only if I get to keep my memories. And if I get to be hot.

Sure. I'm metrosexual. You wouldn't believe the shit I would pull if it weren't taboo to wear dresses.

This. Because "pretty" plus "female" has it easy, but that ease leads towards intellectual issues.
Society shelters the pretty girl from her mistakes, but you cannot learn to stand on your own two feet with such forces at work.
With "support" being woven so thoroughly into the baseline understanding of reality, the instances in which support were not there and so you were subject to a fall would appear to be random. You need consistency to see a pattern, but the pretty girl is not consistently made to live with her mistakes.
Breaking such a fundamental misunderstanding is not easy, and I would not want to live with the frustration of not understanding or be a slave to the emotional coping mechanisms that may arise.

How many US Presidents were female? How many fortune 500 CEOs?

How many women have had influence over the US President by being his wife? How much of a fortune 500 CEO's salary is spent on women?

Men think that to have control over a thing you need to be the source of that thing. Women know that they just have to control the man who has achieved control over the thing. It's something he never sees coming.

I would be a woman and spend most days feeling my tits and seeing how many foreign objects I can fit in my fanny at once.

Wow.

Let me explain it this way. Woman have to put up with people that think like you.

That is extremely hard.

I believe PMS and menstruation negates all of your arguments.

You want to go through periods, childbirth, eating birth control pills, being emotional and controlling, having to face the negative portrayal of saggy or small boobs, and going out shopping all the time?
