If there was an option to donate your gender parts in exchange for gender parts of the opposite sex would you do it?

No, I don't like the idea of putting somebody else's body parts in me.

Yes, is this even possible?

Maybe, it would depend on the donor.

No, I only want the appearance not the function.

Would depend entirely on who it was that was donating. I'd certainly do it if the organ suited me externally, as in it would have to be in proportion and not, ehm, over used?! I'd love to be able to give what I do have to someone else, after all, I've heard many a good thing about it which I could never appreciate, being as I hate the thing, so perhaps on someone else it would serve a purpose and be appreciated.

To answer the op, genital switching sounds too invasive for me to do. Heck, I wouldn't event get a tattoo for that same reason, too invasive. The only reason I might take someone else's organ would be to save my life...and that counts out genitalia.

I think it's an interesting idea, but it's about to be obsolete with the reality of organ growing via adult stem cells of patients. If you really want to be part of that you could hold out for one more decade on SRS (or not, because they can still grow it from your own stem cells, but you may want to hold out due to cost) and get that done instead. It may all seem like science fiction, but biotechnology seems to be an accelerating curve of progress, so expect to be blinded by a new decade of superscience.

If I actually had a willing donor to get a uterus from so that I could have kids I would most certainly do this in a heartbeat. The only reason I haven't considered surgery is cause one day I want to have children.

I already thought about this too and I would also do it, but was also wondering... (sorry if this sounds stupid) cant the surgeons use breasts (after the top surgery) to make a penis instead of having to use arms, thighs or stomach area?  Or some kind of other material like rubber?

Other tissues are not as nearly consistent looking as those areas you referenced that they use. But I wouldn't worry, if adult stem cell research continues to progress at the accelerating rate that it is, we'll probably have the ability to grow our own transplantable organs within two decades or less (barring government regulation (strangulation)).

I've actually heard of something like a gender transplant for MtF Transexuals. I've head that they possibly could successfully put a uterus, along with all of the other parts including the ovaries in a person... I don't know how long it would be able to sustain itself in there but they said it is quite possible.;)

My FTM friend and I always joke with each other about how badly we wish we could do this. Except... we're not really joking.
Here's what I find about compromise--
don't do it if it hurts inside,
'cause either way you're screwed,
eventually you'll find
you may as well feel good;
you may as well have some pride
