Title: Best of both worlds?
Post by: Wild Flower on February 28, 2016, 12:37:23 PM
I do not like being a male, but outside superficial image... Do you think the male body is physically better wheras the female is weaker in a job where physicality plays a role. And if so, T isn't the end all be all.

And T may help people in general to be more agressive and competitive. More money. More success.

And somehow there is a way to have best of both worlds... Masculine and feminine. And have a strong body, with enough female form to be passable. Or be undeniable trans, but be hot as hell in which both sexes are attracted to you for different aspect.

Classic "masculinity = utility" argument.  Nope, I don't agree.  The male body is not "better" and the female body is not "weaker."  That's misogynistic crap and I won't hear it.

I agree with sparrow.  Not every single male or male body is stronger than every single female body anyway.  Certainly on the average male bodies are physically stronger, but in certain aspects, like endurance, balance, flexibility, female bodies may be very competitive. 

In addition, the argument about aggression and competitiveness is also a bunch of crap.  In fact, much of our success as a species, as a nation, etc... is just as much if not more due to cooperation.  Even the most successful of us, by any measure, relies upon others for many aspects.  One might make a counter argument that women are better team players and therefore more important.  In the end, neither is better or worse, simply having differences that compliment each other in a beautiful way.

Your picture is of a woman who may be using steroids, a kissing cousin of T. They are pretty common in the body building sport and while illegal, often go undetected. Personally while I like and have the slim body, I am happy to be without the muscles. T nearly drove me insane and I am glad to be rid of it.
