What do you dislike about your gender/sex?

No one said that yet, so here I go!!! I hate when people think a man cannot date another man...
I also dislike every other expectation society puts upon genders... Let people live the way they like!!

Having any feminine traits makes me less of a man in the eyes of many other men. That is seriously bogus.

The systematic (conscious and unconscious) oppression of women that men have ingrained in our society sucks too.

Two words: male disease. Our friend the man George Carlin covers exactly what I'm talking about, along with the idea that males are really a biological afterthought, which I found intriguing…

That is a terrible way to view being male and really makes me question George Carlin's emotional state late in his life.
 
That men can't be fashion or image conscious and that they have to wear plain clothes and sports jerseys. Speaking of sports, exactly that. That men have to like sports, be constantly thinking about sports and even play sports all the time. Men must like violent video games such as shooters like Call of Duty and can't enjoy simpler games like Pokemon or Mario Kart. Also that men can't be effeminate or enjoy shows intended for girls. Lastly . the idea that men don't ask for directions. Why is that something? Is it about feeling insecure cause I've asked for directions countless of times and didn't feel insecure at all.
 
I have always really wanted to be a girl because they have so many cute clothes that they can wear. Plus they can do up their hair. When I try doing my hair up it's gross. On another side, when girls get all hot and bothered down there it's not as easy to notice as it is with guys. And they're never wrong, even when they're wrong they're not wrong. And if someone thinks they're wrong then they're going to deal with hell because women are never wrong.

Many women have some sort of "I am special! I deserve everything special!" type of complex. Newsflash! You're not!

Back when I was still attending a super fobby university filled with Asians, I always see those mainland China girls who have boyfriends, and then they act like they're entitled to everything \: I often feel bad for the boyfriend because they're the ones having to put up with them...I personally experienced that myself with my roommate who was an international student from China, and she was one of those people. No offense to Chinese people.
 
Women put down other women so often, it seems. And for foolish reasons, at that. That might be why I generally don't like to be around other women, and I'm sure I'm not the only one.
 
That girls are helpless in a physical job/anything physical environment. I had a labor job once and countless men everyday would come up to me and be like "OH ILL GET THAT FOR YOU!!!!!!" Sometimes I wouldn't even have items in my hand yet I was just bending down to get them and before I could touch them a stampede of men would appear so eager to help. Yet when the men were working no one made an effort to help them at all. I mean I get if they were just trying to be nice or hitting on me who really knows, BUT COME ON. Like I got hired for this because I can do the job so let me just do my job and I'll speak up when I need help.

Also that women can't drive? I'm sorry but I see equally good/bad men and women drivers.

Girls don't like sex/don't masturbate/can't talk sexual in front of them.

The first two are more so what men usually think than both women and men, but the last one I've noticed from both sides. I find it weird when I can't talk sexually with another girl like yo you're supposed to be my bro about this stuff.
 
About my female gender, I like .

What I dislike is I was never allowed to do anything or leave the house when I was young or do any kind of worthwhile work training because I was a girl and I had to have a male escort if I wanted to go somewhere. I hate that guys follow me around on the street and throw things at me if I ignore them. I hate that I bleed for a week every month with death cramps and then everyone thinks I'm MEAN at that time (like I don't have a reason to be). I hate that my body is ruined because of having a baby, and that I had to go through the pain of having a baby, when the other half that also made the baby had to go through none of it and his body is not ruined. I pretty much just hate being a girl. I wish I could just get a sex change and be a gay guy.
 
I hate the standards for beauty women have. Body shapes are unattainable and we're expected to be glam with makeup and love shopping. I hate shopping. It's so tedious because I am frugal about spending money. I hate trying clothes on, but I do to make sure I'm not wasting my money. I told a lady at Shopper's that makeup is a waste of money and she looked at me like I'm an alien lol

I'm a feminist of sorts. I believe in gender roles (I like to be provided for, but I also believe in splitting costs in half and rotating who pays for outings), but I do not believe men or women should be limited by them. My dad was a single parent (obviously out of the norm') and my mother is completely supported by her most recent partner's business. I want to be a teacher and a mother, but I respect women who do not want children as well as stay-at-home dads. As long as it's not hurting anyone, who cares lol
 
That guys are only nice to girls so they can have relations with them. In all media we're portrayed to be sex animals. I've literally gotten disgusted looks from girls when I open the door for them. That baffles me. Some guys have really given the rest of us a bad name. Honestly can't blame girls though, after hearing some of the incidents that have occurred. Disgusting :[
 
Periods (I like to call them "monthlys")... that is all.

You leak blood for a week or two, become emotionally unstable, and simply want to rest. It's probably the hardest when you're at a job.

I've found that taking iron pills during that week really helps with the fatigue, by quite a large margin.

LOL. Yes, I feel the exact same way. I never wear makeup, and only rarely like shopping. I prefer being frugal but will splurge if I need to replace something that should last a long time.

Makeup is a waste of money to me. Others might like it, but I don't. The extent of my makeup is for formal occasions where I'll use a thin powder that blends in with my skin color. No eyelash gunk, no eyebrow pencils, no ruby red lipstick... all my own color, all natural.

I hate the fact that just because I'm a girl I'm expected to have children when I'm older. I always hear people say things to me like "So when you have children..." or "what do you think you'll name your kids?" or "You'll make a good/funny/whatever mother". I wish they'd all stop. I hate it. I mean no offence to people who have or like babies and children, but I personally cannot stand them. It's almost like a phobia where if I hear or see them, I feel very uncomfortable and distressed. Hearing baby sounds (even sounds of happiness and not just screaming and crying, mind you) literally makes me cover my ears and feel like I want to die. I'm going off on a rant here, so I'll stop but yeah. I hate how people expect children of me because I'm female and when I explain I don't want them, they seem confused or say the classic: "You'll change your mind when you're older". No, no I won't change my mind.

Other things I dislike are things like clothing and make-up. Some girls I know always seem bothered or confused that I don't have an interest in it. Make-up takes too much time, and excessive clothes is a waste of money.

This, this, and uh...this?

Well, with the exception of the shopping part because I usually like to do that when I get a decent amount of money that's flowing out of my emergency fund. For a lot of women, artificial and physically impossible beauty standards are a self-esteem killer, though I think it's something we can all agree on.

I hate all these gender barriers period, but that's probably because I'd love to eradicate the barrier between gender roles.

One thing I don't like about males is that we're supposed to be an emotional fortress, like you mentioned. It can be really taxing at times, and it can lead to some pretty emotional outbursts. If I didn't find someone to vent to, I think I would still be stuck in my world of depression.

The reason why I am in depression, sigh ;;
 
I'm probably gonna sound petty, but beards. Seriously, the damn things need to get nuked to hell. If you unluckily have a patchy beard at 21, you are deemed less manly then all the other idiots with peach fuzz on their cheeks, that's all nice and cropped and at least are all connected. You're likely gonna have serious bias from a lot of the other sex because you don't have this unreachable measure of manliness upon your face. Which by the way is the most annoying, scratchy thing in the world, which grows on its own accord, never really getting a good shape. /endrant
