Is it harder being male or female?

[Kyle]

Overall what do you think is more difficult? Living as a male or a female? Is it different now to how it used to be? What contexts would tip the scales either way?

and please shut up about periods they're not even that bad. drama queens. :¬:

don't even go there with periods, how would u know? i get such bad pms that affects me mentally and physically. i get suicidal and impulsive which isn't a good combination. ive dumped people and left friendships because of pms. i feel sick and can't move out of bed when my period is really bad, making me miss uni and special events. this happens every month and i feel awful for a week but im expected to get on with my day and 'shut up about periods because they're not that bad'.

anyway i think females have it worse in some aspects but nowhere near as much as people believe.

[Jurv]

female purely because of periods and pregnancy

but i wouldn't say it's hard being either tbf unless something bad happens to you, idk

How the hell would you know about periods they can be a right ***** and the pms that comes along with it and the spots and everything it's awful so shhhh. There's times I can't get out of bed because it's that bad. Everyone has different experiences some worse than other and its not always the same. I tend to get super irritable and snappy because of pms and omg can I get through chocolate. As soon as its over I usually regret the snappiness and chocolate.

Anyway having said that it is something we are forced to deal with and I don't tend to use it as an excuse for my behaviour/getting out of things.

In some aspects it is hard being a women such as childbirth. Its wonderful and horrible at the same time.

From what I've seen with my male relatives it seems harder to be a male because of the expectations other people have for them as a male.

Females clearly got the bum deal here.

Not only with periods and pregnancy etc. but expectations, still lower wages in a few jobs (and by few, I mean very, very few), treated differently at work because of being female, etc. etc. (though this could work in their favour).

We do however, get to flutter our eyelashes and get better treatment than a male would, for example.

Women are better off in richer countries rather than those with rules which make women possessions rather than human beings.

i don't think that we have it worse, i'm just really jealous that i was born a girl and not a boy

you guys look like you have so much more fun, things look easier
IT'S NOT FAIR

if i had the choice i'd rather be a boy and not a girl (I'M NOT TRANSGENDER JUST MY OPINION ON WHICH SEX IS BETTER)

[Matt]

I'd have said males get it so much easier haha. In the past even if men went out to work all day, the women still had to do their fair share of work too. Sometimes I don't think they get enough credit They've got it pretty tough in my opinion.

[Kyle]

lmao! I was kidding about periods sorry if I offended! but I would like some opinions on the non physiological obstacles that each gender faces

[Red]

100% everything shar and jen had to say about periods so physically women!! Historically and still today in certain countries, women have it worse off with less rights. Interesting vid on like a girl being an insult if anyone hasn't seen it.

Also I am jel how they can be ready in like 5 mins! Although it would be hard to be a boy because they are expected to be the ones to approach girls, the one to be the main breadwinner etc.

omg kirsty was really enjoying that vid til i saw it was an always vid looool

i disagree though, men traditionally call all the shots in the relationship that i wish we could have, like chatting up a girl, asking a girl out, proposing
