Can picture the men staring at their yogurt pots saying "It's just impossible! Fat free? "

2 Labour

Umm... No thanks. I'll never know what this feels like, and frankly, I'm not going to ask.

This one makes my brain hurt thinking about it.

3 Puberty

Imagine growing hair under your vagina, and having your "time of the month." Wouldn't it be great? Wouldn't it be a dream?

No. I'm just fine and happy to be a male, thank you very much.

I don't want to have those "periods". I'm lucky to have been born as a male in this respect.

This... Would just be weird. I'm happy with my orientation as it is.

Yay! I get no periods!

4 Household Roles
5 Careers
6 Children's Toys
7 Clothing

This is WRONG!

In my college sociology class, my class and I had to do a "challenging gender roles" thing in where we all wore each other's clothes and the males had to act girly and the females all had to act like tomboys and we had to do it in public and see how other people would react to it. We all had so much fun doing it andI would totally do it again!

If boys started wearing crop tops and booty shorts, I would just hang myself from a ceiling fan while the fan is in the middle of spinning.

How far down you want to go with this is really your own business.

8 "Becoming an Adult"

I don't mean in the same way as puberty. There's the things you do to "become a man" that I never bought, but it would be much stranger the other way.

9 Movie Roles

Gender roles in movies can be such cliches, from damsels in distress to the shock of a woman being a killer. But this would be yet stranger if reversed.

10 Care for Your Looks

I'll have you know that I don't own any makeup (except chapstick if that counts and some gifts I got from other people) and if I could I wouldn't brush my hair in the morning...

Who cares about looks. I didn't brush my hair until my dad cut half of it off

Girls, why the full bag of stuff? I only need the one hairbrush.

The Contenders
11 Civilization

We would be stuck gathering and farming. No hunting, no wars, no aggressive nature to lead to advancement. On the other hand it would likely be a much more gentle loving world.
