Man VS Woman
Jul 27, 2007 | 2:22PM

What's the best and worst thing about being a man or a woman?

Wow, has it really been over a MONTH since I've blogged here?  Guess so!  I never even received the auto-sent letter from Lex telling me it's been a while.  I guess they've given up n me, LOL.

So, without further delay, I present the time honored answer to this old BID that I scrounged up out of the list.  Man, but there were quite a few to choose from!  I guess I should get back into the swing of updating this blog more frequently.....

Frankly, this one is pretty easy.  Being a man, the best thing?  Well, for starters, we don't have to worry about all the extra dainty underthings to buy when we go shopping, I.E. bras, feminine products for "that time of the month", and so on and so forth.  Also, never having to be with child?  A BIG plus, LOL.

I know this next thing is something petty to complain about, but I will say that MOST of you females are very lucky that you don't have to shave your face and neck daily----I throw out the word MOST with caution, as I know that SOME women out there do have problems with a little scruff, LOL.  That being said, you don't have to do it to your FACE every single day, which I believe to be the most sensitive skin on your body.  Sure, women will argue that they shave their legs and armpits, but I don't believe this compares to the soft and sensitive areas on your face and neck.  Don't believe me?  Next time you're in the bath, try running the razor across your cheek or across your neck once---or just do the entire thing and let me know how your face feels.  Red, raw, and itchy, no?  Try having to do it every single day, LOL.

A bit ago, I mentioned how wonderful it is to not have to worry about being with child and going through the whole childbirth experience, being a man with a man's parts and all.  But laides, trust me on this one.  Getting kicked in the family jewels is of comparable pain---if only for a short while---it makes you double over with cramping like jolts, makes you sick to your stomach, and you feel like you can't ever move again, LOL.  Now, add to that the fact that the ONLY time its ever happened to me, I received a surprise line drive of a baseball right into the package, without the use of any protective gear for my boys....now THAT alone made me turn into a girl, if only for a couple hours, LOL.  I dunno how to add the link so anyone can comment, as I'm assuming the comment glitch hasn't been fixed yet.  Maybe Helly will grab mail me with the answer!  :~)

It's working again, YAY! :-D

I have to agree with you 100% that of all the reasons I'm glad I'm not a man, "not having to shave everyday" tops the list! Periods? Yeah, that's only once a month, not every single day, or even every other day! Easy peasy! Shaving other body parts? That's not an everyday chore, either. Yeah... there are merits to being a woman over a man :-D

LOL---both would seem to have thier "ups" and "downs"----I'm sure you as a woman would gladly trade your period for say, oh, I dunno, what aspect of the male physiology WOULD you want to trade for? Now THERE'S a BID, LOL!

disagree all over the place.

My underarms are soft..they get so irritated with the blade..

also my cycle lasts longer than most. ANd men don't get kicked in the jewels over and over again, for a week or more....

and the feminine products can get expensive!

I don't want to be a man. But certain aspects of being a woman are horrible for me.

LOL---hence the GREATNESS of blog comments Kenzie! I LOVE to get opposing viewpoints! It's what makes for great conversation.

But you see, those handful of reasons that I said it's NOT good to be a man don't even COMPARE to the reasons it's not good to be a woman---for exactly the reasons you said! I would NEVER want to be a woman, not after 30 years of my wonderful male-ness, LOL. Hate for the testosterone to seep out into what I'm saying, but there it is!
