I spent most of my adult life working with my back and hands. I have been an amateur singer/guitarist for over 40 years. If I had it to do again, as a woman or a man, I would be a musican.

Yeah, me too, I also selected what I am now. Writer, artist, also musician, performer, and because of my curiosity bump, endless net researcher and scholar. None of the others really attract me. I'm a very private person, a homebody, and I guess a bit of a cocooner by nature ...

Well, I guess that's fortunate — I'm doing what I like, and as a female I'd do the same. I feel lucky I can say that.

Love, Robyn Katie

Since every man and woman in my family is mechanically inclined, I would probably still be on the path I'm on right now which is to become a mechanical engineer, either that or a nurse.

Taking care of a house and family is so integrated in my life already that I'm sure it would be just as much second nature, as a woman, as it is now.

At the risk of sounding trite... I can cook. I mean, when I cook it's my favorite thing to do. I could actually see myself keeping a home neat and clean and being a hostess. Guess it's from growing up in the late 50's early sixties.

I ditto Kim. Techie/nerdette. But I could easily be a homemaker also. Heck I have had to do that now also anyway.

my role

Post by MelodyPerkins »

Assuming that nothing changes but my sex,...I would expect to have similar roles that I have today.

Nurse, Inventor, Artist, Caregiver.

I feel more creative and artistic while en-femme. So maybe an Artist. I dunno. I'm still a geek, whatever clothes I'm wearing. So maybe I should be a Scientist/Engineer type with an artistic flare! :)

Good observation :) As a sociologist, I beieve our society is gendering roles waaay too much.
Gender is not something that one is, it is something one does, an act… a "doing" rather than a "being". (Judith Butler)
