Is it normal to think women have happier/easier/better lives than men?
18yo male here;
What I think / have gathered is that; If you place a non-retarded/looking and not "overweight" looking female next to an equivalent male and play out their lives a billion times, each play exploring a different variable, the female will probably die happier than the male most of the time by a fair amount.
I can come up with an entire page's worth of perks to being female:
They get to wear prettier clothes than men
They get to wear skirts
Their male friends give them free stuff; money, food, rides, weed, alcohol
Society thinks you look better and are more intelligent than men (at least this is a "cool" opinion in my school which is often shared by males)
Women can eat, drink, watch, read, play WHATEVER THEY WANT without the risk of being labelled a fag/faggot/ or being beat up by your friends
Society doesn't hate you by default
You get sex right away if you ask for it
Men bend over backwards for you
You don't have to go out of your way to to look masculine in front of your friends
Women have less challenging lives
Women have better orgasms
People sympathize with you more
Society doesn't label you as: hairy, disgusting, boxy, lumpy, etc.
etc.
etc.
etc.
Personally, I'd happily use tampons for the rest of my life, give birth and restrict my sex-having to be female. It seems just plain better.
Two side questions:
To the fellas: Do you enjoy being male? does the prospect of being female, or any features of it look tantalizing to you? If there was a pill that would make you wake up female the next day would you take it?
Vice versa to the ladies.
Apologies if I've come across as short-sighted, stereotypical or sexist in any way.
