What I Would Do If I Was A Guy

I have always wondered what it be like to live in the skin of the opposite gender.

I feel like everyone imagines what it is like to be the other gender at least once in their lives. You see how the other gender acts and talks, but you don't actually know what it is like to live it. So, at least for me, I think being a dude would be really interesting. To me, men are such unique creatures because they can take so many different forms. Even though I have only been able to analyze the nature of boys for about 19 years or so, I think I have a pretty good idea of what I would act like if I was a guy at least in this stage of my life.

So, let's start with appearance. Some guys just wear gym shorts all the time and other guys wear nothing but dress clothes or something along those lines. I would totally do both. Or just completely walk around with nothing but boxers on because I can! Sometimes I just want to walk around shirtless, but that is socially unacceptable and also against the law in most states for women. But, if I was a dude, I would do it all the time even if it wasn't the appropriate time or season. My kicks would also be pretty classy. Sperrys, KDs, and just polished dress shoes look so nice on men. Khakis, a polo, and Sperrys would be my outfit of choice. However, I would want to look sporty from time to time as well with some KDs, a cut off, and some Nike shorts.

Anyways there are some benefits to being a guy, such as peeing literally anywhere. Girls can too, but it is so much easier for guys to do it because they don't have to squat or use toilet paper. They also do not have periods, which is just a gift in itself. I understand that they have other masculine issues, but I honestly cannot comprehend what could be more disgusting, annoying, and painful than periods. Guys can also save a lot of money because they do not have to buy any makeup products, tampons, bras, or hair products. Additionally, it takes them no time to get ready. If I had class at 8am I would get up at 7:45am and I would still be on time because I wouldn't have to do anything.

Now, personality is also a crucial portion. I have met my fair share of guys who know how to act around women and treat them right, but I have also come in contact with guys who have no respect at all. If I was a man, I would treat women they way they were meant to be treated, not put on a pedestal, but to love and respect them. It sounds so simple, but some men do not understand how that works. Sometimes women can be crazy, I get it, but as a guy I would want to be considerate of how women can be even if it isn't the greatest.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
