I think I would have been unshackled from a lot of rhetoric, standards and discourse that's caused me a great deal of pain, but in return there would be a whole other set of rhetoric, standards and discourse that affect how people treat me. It's nice to think that being born another gender might have helped me to circumvent aspects of my life that have negatively affected my growth and happiness, but I think that realistically, I would probably face other problems as the other gender that could very well lead to a similar state of being.

I think I would appreciate certain aspects of the other gender more, but they come with caveats that I genuinely feel lucky not to have to go through. It's definitely possible that I would be happier had I been born as the opposite gender, but the grass isn't always greener and I think the struggles that have shaped my life wouldn't be that much different had I been born a woman.

What aspects would you have appreciated?
