Good evening guys and dolls.
If given the choice at birth to be born transsexual or a cisgendered member of your target gender, under which conditions and circumstances would you be willing to do this?
Choices are:
a] swap with a soul destined for life in the world's most impoverished nation (starvation, disease, gratuitous violence, etc)
b] swap with a soul about to be born (insert handicap here)
c] (for females) swap with a soul destined for existence in a nation where women are severely oppressed second class citizens, have no rights, etc.
d] swap with a soul destined to die young
e] swap with a soul destined for (insert time and place you'd hate to live in)
f] swap with a soul destined for (insert adverse circumstance of your choice)
I'm just curious as to what you'd be willing to endure to be born your target sex.
What would you endure? What wouldn't you endure?
Elaboration strongly encouraged.
Note: This topic assumes that you'dve rather been born your target sex. Hence, assertions of how content you are now, how you wouldn'tve had it any other way, how blessed you are, etc. are totally irrevelant here.
Secondly, this is a hypothetical scenario. Statements of how stupid, pointless, sad, depressing, harmful, etc. this exercise is are redundant and have no place here. Don't like 'what ifs?', simple - don't post.

I'd rather live in the complete body I desire, from birth and die young, than have to endure this emotional roller coaster that could well end in death at a young age anyway.

Yep... before I even scrolled down and read the replies, d] swap with a soul destined to die young is what caught my eye too. It's hard to measure a lifetime in years.

If women were second class citisens Id ship myself out or die young as a civil rights activist... If I were starving Id fight my way to prosperity and survival... I wouldnt care if I were deaf and dumb and unable to walk... so on and so forth...
Quoted] swap with a soul destined to die young
Alt. "D"- definately. On alt. "F" I'm afraid I would cheet you and swap the soul destined for "Nicole Kidman" ;D , which would get me a lot of dirty look's (posts) and I would be ridden of this entire forum...lol :P >:D

geez, what's with dying young?
I'd rather be born without legs.
Die young.
I am quite happy with who I am now, it was a hard learning and enduring journey, but a very profoundly spiritual one. I have arrived.
